“The Family Man” is going to be a dad again.
Nicolas Cage and his wife, Riko Shibata, are having a baby, the actor’s rep confirmed to Page Six on Thursday.
“The parents-to-be are elated!” the publicist also told People. A due date or sex was not announced.
This will be Shibata’s first child.
Meanwhile, Cage, 57, has two other children from previous relationships: 16-year-old Kal-El and 31-year-old Weston, who is four years older than his stepmom.
Shibata, 27, wed Cage in February 2021 at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas. She is the “Gone In 60 Seconds” star’s fifth wife.
At the time of their wedding, Cage said in a statement, “It’s true, and we are very happy.”
The couple met in Shiga, Japan, and have been together since shortly after the dissolution of Cage’s last marriage, to Erika Koike — which lasted for four days in 2019.
He was also previously married to Patricia Arquette from 1995 to 2001, Lisa Marie Presley from 2002 to 2004 and Alice Kim from 2004 to 2016.
According to the Daily Mail, Cage proposed to Shibata via FaceTime sent her ring via FedEx to Japan.
“She left New York and went back to Kyoto, Japan, and I went back to Nevada and I haven’t seen her for six months,” he said on his brother Marc Coppola’s podcast in August 2020.
“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.”
A few months after tying the knot, the newlyweds made their red carpet debut at the premiere of Cage’s film, “Pig,” at the Nuart Theatre in Los Angeles.
They then made another rare red carpet appearance at the 2021 GQ Men of the Year party in West Hollywood in November.
