Growing their family! Nicolas Cage‘s wife, Riko Shibata, is pregnant with the pair’s first child together, a rep for the couple confirms to Us Weekly.
Cage, 57, and the actress, 27, were introduced by mutual friends in Shiga, Japan, where the Golden Globe winner was filming Prisoners of the Ghostland. The pair tied the knot in February 2021 and made their red carpet debut five months later at the premiere of his movie Pig.
