Weston Cage back in rehab

Los Angeles - Weston Cage has checked into rehab.

The 20-year-old son of Nicolas Cage made the decision to enter the treatment facility for 30 days after he was recently arrested on domestic violence charges for the second time in a month following an altercation with his South African wife Nikki Williams.

Nicolas Cage's representative said: "Many fine opportunities await such a talented young man, including negotiations with a major production company using his exceptional martial arts and acting skills.

"Weston is getting the help and support that he needs during this time. We are all hoping that he will be able to do it respectfully, in peace."

Weston also rubbished reports of trouble in his marriage, telling E! News: "I would like to congratulate my multi-talented wife on her recent recording contract. I have always been supportive of her music. In no way would I ever be jealous of her successes, as I do not follow her preferred musical genre, and am personally working on a new solo album that I should have recorded a long time ago.

"I am getting myself together, so I'm sorry about being misunderstood by people who don't know me, or know that I come from a long line of creative and successful artists."

Nikki and Weston - who married in April and recently spent time in rehab together - are currently expecting their first child and Nikki has revealed she doesn't wish to press charges against her husband.
