“There was a recent breakup,” Cage, 55, said in an interview with The New York Times Magazine. “I don’t really want to talk about it. I was pretty upset about that and the way things happened.”

Cage and Koike applied for a marriage license and wed in Las Vegas on March 23. They had been dating since April 2018.

Just days after tying the knot, Cage sought an annulment on March 27, citing reasons that included being too drunk to understand his actions when he married Koike. The “Face/Off” actor said he and Koike drank “to the point of intoxication” before the wedding and argued he wasn’t aware of Koike’s “relationship with another person.”

Cage and Kim have a son, 13-year-old Kal-El. The Academy Award winner has another son, 28-year-old Weston, from a previous relationship with Christina Fulton.
