Anne Heche and James Tupper have reason to celebrate after their show Men In Trees was axed - the pair is expecting a baby.

Although Men In Trees wrapped this summer, Tupper and Heche are "thrilled" to be welcoming their first child together, a representative for the couple tells Usmagazine.com The actors were both married when they were cast to play on-screen lovers in the U.S. drama, but they came out as a couple after Heche filed for divorce from Coley Laffoon in February 2007.

Heche then fought a bitter custody battle with Laffoon over their six-year-old son Homer, which ended in June.
