The Hollywood actress, 53, was pronounced dead on August 12 – one week after being involved in multiple car crashes.

According to reports, Heche first plowed into an apartment complex before crashing into a home, leaving her ‘intubated’ in the hospital.

The Heche family has been plagued with tragedy, starting with Cynthia Heche who died during infancy because of a heart attack.

In 1983, their secretly-gay father Donald Heche passed away from AIDS, and Anne’s brother Nathan Heche, 18, was killed in a car accident that same year.

In 2006, Heche’s eldest sister Susan, 48, died of a brain tumor.

Heche’s strained relationship with her family first became public after the release of her memoir Call Me Crazy in 2001, with the actress revealing she was estranged from her mother because of her romance with comedian Ellen DeGeneres.

In her book, Heche revealed that she was s*xually abused by her father, who gave her genital herpes.

Nancy responded to her daughter’s autobiography and said: “I am trying to find a place for myself in this writing, a place where I as Anne’s mother do not feel violated or scandalized.”

Both Heche and her sister Susan disclosed in their books that their father lived a two-faced life. By day, Donald was a closeted homos*xual but by night, he was a God-fearing Baptist choir leader.

The patriarch left Nancy and her children at home to visit gay bars in Ohio.

In her book The Truth Comes Out, Nancy revealed that she and Donald experimented with amyl nitrate or poppers to add spice to their s*x life.

“Don and I used the poppers together. When we first moved to Atlantic City and were living in the house with Don’s ”business’ partner,’ we were given some little bottles of the dizzying stuff,” she shared.

Nancy said that she discovered her husband was a homos*xual from his doctor.

“We fail. We betray each other. It’s a sad story. God had to teach me a lot. We’re to act out of our healing, not out of our woundedness. I was hurt and felt betrayed,” she said.
