Anne Heche died at the age of 53 after an automobile accident that left her in critical condition.
“Anne is legally deceased under California law,” a representative for Heche told on Friday, August 12. “Her heart is still beating, and she is still on life support.” This is to provide OneLegacy Foundation adequate time to discover recipients who will be a good fit.”
On Friday, the actress’ rep issued a statement to People in honour of the late celebrity and her legacy. “We lost a brilliant light, a kind and joyous person, a loving mother, and a faithful friend today,” the representative stated on behalf of the Ohio native’s family and friends.
“Anne will be greatly missed, but her gorgeous sons, legendary body of work, and impassioned activism will continue on.” Her fearlessness in always speaking her truth and promoting her message of love and acceptance will have a long-lasting influence.”
On August 5, the Los Angeles Police Department verified to that the driver, later identified as Heche, was driving eastbound on Preston Way in Los Angeles.
Around 11 a.m. PT, the blue Mini Cooper veered off the road and hit with a house on Preston and Walgrove, catching fire and leaving the actress with severe burns. A woman who was at home at the time was in the backyard and was unharmed.
The Los Angeles Fire Department confirmed the next morning in a video update that the car crashed 30 feet into the two-story home, which was declared hazardous to enter after the fire was doused. It took 59 firefighters more than an hour to put out the fire.
Following the accident, Heche was left with “a serious lung injury requiring mechanical ventilation” on Monday, August 8, according to a spokeswoman for Heche at the time. “She has been in a coma since immediately after the accident and has not regained consciousness.”
Before succumbing to her injuries, the California resident was believed to be “in stable condition,” her rep told on Saturday, August 6.
