LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Oscar winner Nicolas Cage (news) and his wife of nearly seven months are expecting a child, the actor's publicist said on Tuesday.
It would be Cage's second child and his first with his current wife, the former Alice Kim, his spokeswoman told Reuters. No due date was given.
The 41-year-old actor and his bride, whose pregnancy was first reported by the syndicated TV show "Access Hollywood," met at a nightclub last year before marrying on July 30, 2004. She is a former waitress about 20 years his junior.
Cage, who won an Academy Award as best actor for his role as an alcoholic bent on drinking himself to death in "Leaving Las Vegas," already has a son by a prior relationship with actress Kristina Fulton.
His previous marriages to actress Patricia Arquette (news) and singer Lisa Marie Presley (news) ended in divorce.
Cage, the nephew of famed director Francis Ford Coppola, recently began shooting the film "Ghost Writer" in Australia. He was last in theaters starring in the action adventure "National Treasure."
I didn't know that Nicolas Cage was involved with all those people. I never knew that much about his personal life. I hope this marriage works out better than the others! Especially with a baby on the way.
