Minnie Driver Defends Nicholas Cage After She Claims Actor Bought a Plane Seat for His Son's Imaginary Friend
Minnie Driver is coming to Nicholas Cage's defense!
On Monday, June 26, the British actress praised the National Treasure lead on social media after a random person shared a shady story about the actor.
In the first upload, a bride explained she was forced to give up her hotel suite for an unnamed celebrity, who wound up being the movie star.
"On our wedding weekend, we saw Nicolas Cage walking around our hotel. Nic Cage tried to ruin my wedding and that's my story," the social media user said.
Driver countered the allegation by recalling a sweet memory about the Oscar winner.
"Was once on a plane with NC and his son and a seat had also been purchased for his son's imaginary friend π€," Driver wrote in response.
Fans replied to the Ella Enchanted star with mixed opinions on her anecdote.
"Think he just didn't want anyone else sitting in their row? π ," one penned, while another pointed out, "Now that's a whole new level of wealth."
"This is amazing," a third user said, while a fourth stated, "Thank you for sharing that very Nicholas cage sweet thing to do β€οΈπ."
The details of Driver's claim are unclear, including which son he purchased the extra seat for.
