Actress Anne Heche's mother has penned a tell-all about the day her daughter told her she was a lesbian. In The Truth Comes Out, Nancy Heche reveals she "plummeted into disbelief" when her daughter 'came out' to her in 1997 after striking up a romance with comedienne Ellen Degeneres. The Ally McBeal star then went public about her sexuality and lesbian romance, which lasted until Heche fell for cameraman Coley Laffoon in 2000. Nancy Heche admits in her new book that she was most upset by her daughter's gay life because her husband - the actress' father Don - revealed his secret homosexual life before he died of AIDS in 1983. In an extract from the book obtained by US tabloid the National Enquirer, Nancy writes, "I couldn't imagine anything worse. Anne's newfound lesbian love affair is like a betrayal of an unspoken vow: We will never have anything to do with homosexuals. "Don's death took us to the depths of despair... I secretly hoped Anne's affair would last a week or two, maybe a couple of months."from Contact Music
