Nicolas Cage is the loving father of three children.
Cage became a father for the first time in December 1990 when the actor welcomed son Weston with ex-girlfriend Christina Fulton. After Weston’s birth, Cage and Fulton were no longer romantically involved. Cage continued Patricia Arquette whom he was married to from 1995 to 2001 and later Lisa Marie Presley from 2002 to 2004.
Following his respective splits from Arquette and Presley, the National treasure star became a father again when he welcomed son Kal-El with his third wife, Alice Kim, in 2005. Kim and Cage married in 2004 after two months of dating. They divorced in 2016 after 12 years of marriage.
Five years later, Cage found love again with the current woman Riko Shibata. The couple married in February 2021. We weekly confirmed in September 2022 that Shibata and Cage had welcomed a daughter, August.
The Coppola family has long been Hollywood royalty, and their cross-generational talent means that isn’t likely to change any time soon.

“Nicolas and Riko are happy to announce the birth of their daughter,” the pair said in a statement at the time. “Mother and daughter are fine.”
In July 2024, Cage revealed that he was a father and that he never expected to share his children with three different women.
“They’re all different experiences,” Cage said of his bond with his little ones The New Yorker. “Everyone has a different mother. It’s not what I originally thought would happen if I fell in love or got married—that I would have three different children with three different mothers—but that’s what happened. So every child is different. There is a different kind of level of attention.”
