Legal Battle Over Alleged Assault: Nicolas Cage's Ex Takes Action
Nicolas CageChristina Fulton, the former partner of actor Nicolas Cage, has filed a lawsuit against Cage and their son, Weston Coppola Cage, following a series of disturbing events that have unfolded over the past year. The civil complaint, filed in the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles County, accuses Cage of negligence, specifically negligent supervision and negligent undertaking, regarding their son's mental health and alleged violent behavior.
Fulton's legal action centers around an alleged assault by Weston in April 2024, which she claims resulted in severe and life-threatening injuries. These injuries reportedly include a brain concussion, multiple contusions, a disfiguring eye injury, dental trauma, and psychological damages, affecting her career as an actress and model. The lawsuit claims Weston has a history of mental health issues and violent behavior, allegedly supported financially by Cage, who Fulton accuses of enabling his son's reckless lifestyle.
Cage's response to the allegations, shared by his attorney, categorically dismisses Fulton's claims as "absurd and frivolous", asserting that at 34, Weston is responsible for his own actions. During the period surrounding the alleged assault, Weston was arrested on multiple charges, including felony assault with a deadly weapon, following an incident in which he allegedly attacked two people.
He was released on a bond, but the arrest highlighted ongoing concerns about his mental health and past struggles with substance abuse, which Fulton claims Cage has not adequately addressed. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages for the profound physical, emotional, and economic harm Fulton has endured. As the legal proceedings unfold, this case brings to light the complicated dynamics of familial relationships intertwined with issues of mental health and personal responsibility.
