Nicolas Cage threatens to sue ex-wife over ‘abuse’ claims
By ANIMonday, December 14, 2009
Washington, Dec 14 (ANI): Hollywood actor Nicolas Cage has threatened to sue his ex-wife if she went ahead with a press conference about their ongoing legal battle.
Christina Fulton has filed a lawsuit against the actor and his business manager for allegedly ruining her plans to sell her house.
Fulton - the mother of Cage’s son Weston - claims Cage promised her to give her the deeds to her home when they split, but never transferred the ownership.
She also claims Cage served her with a 60-day notice to vacate the property in September (09), leaving her with a 1 million dollars tax debt on the property.
Fulton had scheduled a press conference, in which she planned to elaborate on claims Cage subjected her to “mental, physical and emotional abuse” - but cancelled at the last minute.
The cancellation fuelled speculations that the star had settled the suit.
However, Cage’s lawyer Marty Singer reveals the tell-all was axed after the actor threatened to countersue his ex.
“He hasn’t paid her a nickel. They cancelled the press conference because we said we’d sue them if they held it,” Contactmusic quoted Singer as telling New York Daily News. (ANI)
