Actress Anne Heche dated Ellen Degeneres. They were an openly lesbian celebrity couple and Anne left Ellen as said she was not a lesbian anymore. She had a very public breakdown.

You may all remember Anne Heche's mental breakdown in 2000 that was very odd, even for Hollywood. This was also just shortly after Heche had broken things off with Ellen DeGeneres, claiming that she was no longer a lesbian.
Heche was found wandering around near Fresno, wearing almost no clothing, calling herself Celestia and saying she was the sister of Jeus, looking for her spaceship. She rang a stranger's doorbell, inquired about a gateway to outer space, and asked if she could use their shower. She was hospitalized the day after (for new programming I guess
).
Sounds like the programming into a heterosexual alter made her snap in other ways...
It certainly had shock value. Until her August 2000 split with Ellen DeGeneres, Heche, 32, was, after all, half of Hollywood's most prominent lesbian couple. Now she has put her honeymoon on hold while she promotes her new memoir, Call Me Crazy, whose revelations make her sexuality switcheroo seem ho-hum. In Crazy Heche claims sexual abuse by her father led her to a struggle with mental illness擁ncluding an alternate personality named Celestia, "a being from the fourth dimension here to teach the world about love."
Heche says she was her other, fourth-dimension self when, last August, she famously abandoned her SUV by a roadside in Fresno, Calif., and wandered into a nearby house. She was also, she says, high on Ecstasy. "I was driving to my spaceship, completely clean and sober, when in my head I was told to take the Ecstasy pill," Heche told PEOPLE in an interview last week. Heche says that she has never been diagnosed with a mental illness or undergone conventional therapy but that the Fresno episode shocked her out of "31 years of a fantasy world that I created to make myself feel safe."
According to Heche, the demon that derailed her was her late father, Donald, a church choir director, who, she says, sexually abused her "from before I was able to speak until I was 12 years old." (Anne says her mother, Nancy, was "in denial" about the abuse; Nancy Heche could not be reached for comment.) Heche was also terrified she would develop HIV after her father, who had led a secret gay life, died of complications from AIDS in 1983. "I had huge pain that I was escaping from," she says. "I went crazy."
You have to hand it to Anne Heche. Whereas most celebs simply act as if they’re God’s gift to earth, the lesbian of yesteryear was thoughtful enough to summon a split personality to prove it. ”I was called Celestia, the reincarnation of God,” writes Heche in her autobiography, ”Call Me Crazy,” of her alter ego (who existed up until that breakdown she had last year near Fresno, Calif.). ”In my mind, I became Jesus.” Truly believing she was from the ”fourth dimension” and that she was ”getting messages from [her] planet every day about how to make the world a better place,” Heche/Celestia even created a secret language to talk to God. During her ”20/20” interview, Heche graced Barbara Walters with a snippet of the foreign tongue: ”Oh, Quiness, ah ka fota tuna dunna,” she said, which roughly translated means ”I need a publicist who can do crisis management, stat!” (Actually, it means ”Oh God, it is a good fortune to be here.”) Check out these other pearls of wisdom Celestia left behind for us.
On the Power of Healing ”Oh, Quiness, Nakka dune notta. Ik all notra daska don.” (”Oh my God. I cannot do this. It’s too scary for me now.” Nevertheless, Heche/Celestia did proceed to heal a friend’s twisted ankle via a laying on of hands.)
On the Mysteries of the Female Anatomy ”Everything we feel or think will already have been programmed into our brains as we’re coming out of the [birth] canal.”
On God, Love, War, Pain, Ego, and then back to God ”God is love. The world is love. There is no pain unless we agree to pain. War is an ugly battle of ego. Ego must die. We are all God.”
On Peace and Calm ”You are Peace and Calm, my escorts sent from heaven” (to the policemen who found her inside a stranger’s home near Fresno).
Her exit came following an eviction blunder as host Tyra Banks accidentally told “Cheer” star Monica Aldama and her pro partner, Val Chmerkovskiy, that they were safe from elimination. Moments later, however, Banks revealed that there was actually an “error in the control room,” and that she needed Aldama and Chmerkovskiy to return to the stage. “This is live TV, right? This is the craziness of live TV,” the host quipped. Ultimately, Monica and Val were safe as Heche and Motsepe were sent home.
