Anne Heche Bashes Ex on Letterman

By Kate Schwartz, Newser Staff

Posted Aug 27, 2009 12:36 PM CDT

(Newser) – Looks like Anne Heche is still none-too-happy about her divorce settlement with ex Coley Laffoon. In an appearance on Letterman last night, Heche asked if she could say "lazy ass" on television after being asked what Laffoon, who collects child support from the actress, does for a living. "He goes out to the mailbox and he opens up the little mailbox door and goes 'Oh! I got a check from Anne! Oh my God! I got a check from Anne! Yay!'"

Laffoon, who filed for divorce in February 2007, was none too pleased: "After coming home from showing two different clients two different condominiums, I was disturbed to see Anne taking out her personal frustration on the father of her child on national television," he told Us. "I wish Anne Heche could see that public bullying isn't good for the soul or positive for her child. It's mean."
