James said his mini-me son was doing just fine these days.

‘He’s doing great!’ Tupper told DailyMail.com. ‘He is doing well in school and is such a great kid all around.’

When asked if Atlas will follow in his parents footsteps and act, James said no.

‘He does not want to be an actor,’ shared the 57-year-old Canadian who is best known for the series Men In Trees with Heche, which aired from 2006 until 2008 as well as the series Revenge which was on TV from 2011 until 2015.

Turns out Atlas has another interest.

‘He is really into tennis, he takes it seriously and plays every day for about two hours,’ shared the proud father.

Tupper and the actress dated from 2007 to 2018. 

As far as coping with Anne’s death, Tupper said that he and Atlas ‘look out for of each other.’

And James also said they ‘miss’ Anne every day. ‘We love her.’

Also at the Race To Erase Gala were Denise Richards, Kathy Hilton, Alessandra Ambrosio, Jonathan Cheban, Cheryl Burke and Ashlee Simpson with her husband Evan Ross.

Anne was laid to rest in an emotional Mother’s Day ceremony at Hollywood Forever cemetery.

The actress died in hospital aged 53 on August 14 2022 – days after slamming her Mini Cooper into a house in Los Angeles, causing an explosion, on August 5.

Her memorial plaque features a photo of the actress, with her full name Anne Celeste Heche, a butterfly icon and her dates of birth and death.

The plaque describes Heche as a ‘mother, actress, writer, director, creator, believer’. ending on the quote: ‘Live in love.’ 

A representative for the star’s family told TMZ: ‘She loved everyone so passionately and deeply and her children, her legacy, thank everyone for their support and love through this difficult time and are grateful to be able to honor their mother on Mother’s Day.’

Heche’s final resting place has a view of the lake and is located within the famous cemetery’s Garden of Legends – with her crypt next to Mickey Rooney and across from Johnny Ramone and Chris Cornell.
