Nicolas Cage and Riko Shibata have been married since 2021. The couple tied the knot on February 16, 2021, in a small and intimate ceremony held in Las Vegas. The wedding took place at the Wynn Hotel, with only close family members and friends in attendance.
Nicolas Cage, an American actor, and Riko Shibata, a Japanese native, first met in Shiga, Japan in 2019. They were introduced to each other through a mutual friend. Despite their age difference (Cage is 57 years old while Shibata is 26), the couple quickly formed a strong connection and began dating.
Their relationship became public when they were spotted together at the Independent Spirit Awards in February 2020. Cage confirmed their engagement during an interview with Marc Maron on his podcast "WTF with Marc Maron" in August 2020.
The wedding ceremony itself was a blend of traditional Japanese and Western elements. Shibata wore a handmade bridal kimono from Kyoto, Japan, while Cage opted for a black Tom Ford suit. The couple exchanged traditional Catholic and Shinto vows during the ceremony.
This is Nicolas Cage's fifth marriage. He was previously married to Patricia Arquette from 1995 to 2001, Lisa Marie Presley from 2002 to 2004, Alice Kim from 2004 to 2016, and Erika Koike in 2019 (which ended in an annulment after just four days). Cage has two sons from his previous relationships.
Riko Shibata is a makeup artist who hails from Shiga, Japan. She has kept a relatively low profile prior to her marriage to Nicolas Cage. Not much information is publicly available about her personal life or professional career.
