Why did Anne Heche’s brother Nate Heche commit suicide?
Nate Heche was killed in a car accident on June 4, 1983. While his death was officially ruled an accident, Anne believes that her brother committed suicide. This belief is one of the reasons that she’s estranged from her mother Nancy.
“I have talked to his youth pastor, and he said that Nathan was committed to the Lord, he loved Jesus, and I do not believe that that was suicide, but the death of his father from homosexuality three months earlier could certainly have stirred up a lot of confusion for him,” Nancy said.
