Anne Heche has reached a divorce settlement with her ex-husband Coley Laffoon, the Associated Press reports.

The actress, 39, must pay Laffoon, 34, a lump sum of $275,000, along with $3,700 a month in child support for their son, Homer, 6.

A judge also ruled that she must pay 75 percent of Homer's private-school tuition. (They agreed to split the cost of any of their son's "agreed upon extracurricular activities.")

The two wed in 2001.

Laffon filed for divorce in February, citing irreconcilable differences.

Soon after, Heche accused him of frequenting strip clubs, watching porn and being a deadbeat dad.

He fired back in court papers, saying her "credibility should also be called into question as a result of her mental instability, which was highly publicized in her [2001] autobiography entitled Call Me Crazy."

Anne has been screwed up for years. I'm glad he will be getting support. If roles were reversed, she would be getting monthly support.

And I apologize for saying Coley is Anne's soon-to-be ex-husband, forgive me for my mistake, etc.?

Coley Lafoon shouldn't even be getting that much money because he never worked the whole time he & Anne were married, he's a deadbeat, no other comments, etc.

good for this man. if HE were a SHE, i'm sure that there would be a far greater settlement, and she would be painted as a great, big victim, even as SHE would most likely be a cheap golddigger. in this case, i'm sure he will be trashed to high heaven. amazing how women scream for equal "rights", but never, ever want or are forced to take equal responsibility.

It is out of control how much money the non-breadwinner in a divorce gets. The kid is staying with Anne so why does the ex need $3700 per month. She has not been working much since the writters srike and should be taken into account. Our system is flawed. I am a guy who was taken to the cleaners in my divorce and did not even have kids. I feel for her.

That's really avoiding any 'deadbeat dad' accusations, asking for huge amounts of money from your ex....
