HOLLYWOOD - It's official: The strange and twisting marriage of Hollywood couple Nicolas Cage and Patricia Arquette is ending.
According to Reuters, Arquette filed her own petition for divorce in Los Angeles on Friday, citing "irreconcilable differences." Cage filed for divorce for the same reasons in February.
The couple, who wed in April 1995, separated for a second time Nov. 1, Arquette's petition said.
While the two have appeared together in public during their marriage, Cage revealed in his divorce petition that they have actually lived apart since nine months after their wedding.
Publicists for both actors say the decision to divorce is mutual and amicable.
Cage, an Oscar winner for 1995's "Leaving Las Vegas," was last seen on the big screen in "Gone in 60 Seconds." Arquette, the sister of actors David Arquette and Rosanna Arquette, is currently on the big screen in the Adam Sandler comedy "Little Nicky."
