The two first met in 2006 on the set of their short-lived ABC drama Men In Trees while Heche was still wed to husband Coley Laffoon.
"In that friendship, we kind of discovered we saw the world in a somewhat similar way," Tupper, who was also married at the time, told the Vancouver Sun last year. "I think we both made decisions that were based on the relationships we were in."

Shortly after Heche announced her split from Laffoon (with whom she has a 6-year-old son, Homer), the two stepped out publicly.
"I wish people could meet her in person," Tupper told the Sun of Heche, with whom he shares a home in Vancouver. "She has such a sparkle and such a love for people, and she works so hard. She is so dedicated to all the good things."
Heche told Extra last year that she was relieved that they can finally be open about their relationship.
"We're so much more comfortable now that our feelings are exposed and everybody knows about them," said Heche, who will be appearing with Tupper on an upcoming episode of Samantha Who? this season.
