Nicolas Cage and Wife Alice Kim Separate After 11years of Marriage

Nicolas Cage has separated from his wife of 11 years, Alice Kim. A spokesman for the actor confirmed to People magazine that the pair have been living separate lives since January. The couple have one son together, ten-year-old Kal-el Coppola Cage. Nicolas and his third wife met in 2004, when she was just 19 and working as a waitress at a Los Angeles restaurant. The pair got engaged two months later. They would have celebrated their 12th wedding anniversary in August. The 52-year-old actor was previously married to Lisa Marie Presley for almost four months in 2002 and to Patricia Arquette from 1995 to 2001. He also has a 25-year-old son, Weston, from a previous relationship with model Christina Fulton There is a 20-year age-gap between Nicolas and Alice, and the star previously revealed his Korean mother-in-law was unimpressed when she first met him. He said: 'When my mother-in-law came to the house for the first time, before even hello or nice to meet you, all I got was, "She's too young!" And so I knew this was going to be an uphill battle.' Nicolas added that he 'made a clear decision' to marry into another culture, saying: 'I made a very clear decision to marry out of my own zip code. 'I mean, way out of my own zip code. I married into another culture, and it's interesting because in Korea they call me the Son-in-Law.' He revealed the couple's wedding was pushed forward so that Alice could travel with him to South Africa while he was making Lord Of War, explaining: 'You can connect the dots... and we did it because we loved each other.
