Actor Nicolas Cage has opened up about how he fell in love with his Japanese wife Riko Shibata.

Their wedding in February made news not only because it was the 57-year-old actor's fifth time down the aisle, but also because she is more than 30 years younger than him. At 26, she is also four years younger than his oldest son, Weston.
