Anne Heche can cross Ellen DeGeneres of her list of possible rebound flings.
The Men in Trees star has confirmed that she's split from her cameraman hubby of nearly five years, Coley Laffoon.
"They have requested that they be allowed their privacy at this time," Heche's rep told E! Online.
The 37-year-old actor and 33-year-old behind-the-scenes man have one child together, four-year-old son Homer.
Heche, who at one point in timespecifically, pre-motherhood-basking glow, post-mothership-seeking Fresno meltdownwas half of Hollywood's highest-profile lesbian couple, gave no cause for the split.
Not that staying mum prevented increasingly rampant media speculation.
News of her split comes in the wake of reports linking Heche with her ABC series costar James Tupper, who split from his own other half in November. Neither star has commented on the reports, and both remain in Vancouver, where the show is currently in production.
As for Heche and Laffoon, the twosome met in the summer of 2000, ironically when both were working on a documentary chronicling DeGeneres' return to stand-up comedy. In August of that year, the same-sex duo called it quits and Heche was found looking for a spaceship in Fresnoan episode she blamed on stress from her break-up. Shortly thereafter, she took up with Laffoon.
The couple announced their engagement in May 2001, and on Sept. 1, they tied the knot in an intimate Los Angeles ceremony in front of just 73 friends and family.
DeGeneres was not on the invite list.
On Mar. 2, 2002, Heche and Laffoon welcomed their first and only child into the world, son Homer Heche Laffoon.
While neither party has yet officially filed for divorce, Heche for one is already moving onat least professionally.
In addition to finishing off the current season of Men in Treesin which she can perhaps now draw on experience to play a single woman suddenly surrounded by available menthe actor recently signed on to star alongside Alan Cumming, David Boreanaz and Carrie Fisher in the horror flick Suffering Man's Charity, due out later this year.
