Nicolas Cage has tied the knot with his 26-year-old girlfriend in a wedding ceremony in Las Vegas, it’s reported.
This will be the Oscar winner’s fifth marriage, two years since he asked for an annulment four days after getting wed to Thai restaurant owner Erika Koike, his fourth wife, on March 23, 2019.
The acting legend has got married to his partner Riko Shibata at the Wynn Casino and Hotel in Las Vegas, writes the MailOnline.
A marriage certificate issued in the state of Nevada obtained by the paper states the pair got married on February 16.
Riko, who is four years younger than Cage’s first son Weston, has taken the star’s surname, it’s claimed on the certificate.
Cage, 56, and Riko, applied for a wedding license on January 10 on her 26th birthday.
The actor, known for his roles in Gone in 60 Seconds and The Knowing, announced their engagement in an interview with his brother Marc Coppola on his radio show last summer.

He said: “She left New York and went back to Kyoto, Japan, and I went back to Nevada and I haven’t seen her for 6 months.
“We’re really happy together and we’re really excited to spend that time together so I finally just said ”Look, I wanna marry you” and we got engaged on FaceTime.
“I got her a black diamond engagement ring.

“Her favorite color is black so she wanted the black gold, and the black diamond.
“I customized and personalized it and I actually sent it to her FedEx.”
Cage’s last marriage, to Erika Koike, ended after four days, with the National Treasure star explaining he was too intoxicated to understand what he was doing.
He also accused Koike of not telling him ‘the full nature and extent of her relationship with another person’.
