Arquette decided to test Nicolas’ dedication and gave him a list of ‘seemingly’ impossible tasks to perform and he managed to complete each one. It took another eight years for the Adaptation (2002) actor to convince fellow actress Pat to marry him but less than a year into their union, they separated but filed for divorce about five years later.

Lisa is the only child to the late King of Rock and Roll Elvis Presley. Cage is a self-proclaimed Elvis fan so much that he used the star as the base of his performance in Wild at Heart (1990). She is a singer like her father but her union to Nicolas was the shortest at just about 3 months. They filed for a divorce the same year they got married but it was not until two years later that the proceedings were finalized.
