Weston has been married three times over. He initially tied the knot with Nikki Williams in 2011, but the two parted ways in 2012. In 2013, Weston and his second wife, Danielle Cage, said their vows. Sadly, the pair divorced in 2016. That said, they had two boys together, Lucian and Sorin.

On April 28, 2018, the actor married his third wife, Hila Aronian, at a sprawling estate in Canyon County, California. Several close family members attended the wedding, but Nicolas was absent, as he was reportedly held up overseas in a last-minute film shoot. A source said the father of three would have loved to be there as he was very happy for Weston.

Weston praised Hila after the two exchanged vows. He said his new bride was the person the universal mind had created for him and that marrying her was the greatest honor as she was a divine incarnation of everything he loved and the owner of his heart.

The actor, who has previously battled substance abuse but is now sober, was delighted to be married to Hila. Weston and Hila soon expanded their family. They had twin daughters, Cyress and Venice, at the peak of the pandemic. However, their relationship eventually turned sour.

They didn't even want to file a lawsuit, but they realized they had to stand up for themselves against these malicious comments.

The two went through an ugly split and are currently divorcing. The separation has been tumultuous, resulting in a family feud involving Hila, Nicolas, and his ex-wife, Christina. Due to these wrangles, the actor and Christina have never spent time with their three-year-old granddaughters.

Nicolas and Christina Feud with Daughter-In-Law

Christina has opened up about the ongoing battles, saying that the conflict has been part of the silent and horrible nightmare her Hollywood family has persevered over the last three years. She alleged that Weston's ex's actions have created an unbearable environment for her.

Hila filed for a restraining order against Christina, which was dismissed earlier this year, making it difficult for the actress to establish a relationship with her twin granddaughters. Christina and Weston were also forced to bring a separate defamation suit on Hila after she spoke ill of them.

As per court documents, the actress and her son are seeking unknown damages from Hila after she allegedly disparaged their names using a blog, media outlet, and social media. The documents further explain that Christina has accused Hila of spreading harmful lies.

Hila allegedly said Christina pushed her son to take the anti-anxiety drug Xanax until he was 17. Christina has also accused Hila of encouraging Weston to file a restraining order in July 2020, just after they welcomed their daughters. Weston's case was dismissed after he failed to show up in court.

The actress alleged that Hila had given her son an ultimatum that if he didn't file the restraining order, she would prevent him from seeing their twins. The suit Christina filed notes that after she found out Hila had embezzled $100,000 from her son while he was in recovery for mental health issues, Weston's ex pushed for a restraining order.

Christina also claims that Hila filed a restraining order under pretenses against her and Weston after a judge denied her initial request. The actress is angry that Hila has taken up a smear campaign against a classy and respectful Hollywood family.

She added that Weston's ex's utterances have created a huge rift that has made it impossible for the entire family to see the twins publicly or privately. Christina finds it insane, hateful, devastating, and hurtful that she and Nicolas haven't managed to meet their gorgeous little granddaughters since they were born.

The actress doesn't understand how, as a mother, Hila can cause such shame and hurt. She revealed that she has a great relationship with Weston's boys, just like his son, but now, Christina and her ex have yet to meet the girls.

Christina confessed that Hila not only went for her but for Nicolas, too. The alleged defamation hasn't been easy for their family. They didn't even want to file a lawsuit, but they realized they had to stand up for themselves against these malicious comments. Weston also noted that he will be taking "immense and aggressive" actions against the defamation.

Weston's mom said the moment Hila married her son, they never understood her nature but later on found her to be manipulative and emotionally abusive as she drove their son away from his own family members and exerted undue influence on him.

Hila hasn't responded to these accusations, but she filed court documents in May 2023, accusing Weston and his family of not having any active involvement in her daughters' life in a financial, emotional, and material manner.

Nicolas hasn't commented on the issue, but he had said back in 2022 that family always came first for him. The actor added that there isn't any version of him that doesn't want to spend time with his kids. He once turned down "Matrix" because he didn't want to be in New Zealand or Australia as he needed to be home with Weston.

Now, the actor who loves family hasn't seen his granddaughters for over a year after they were born. Nicolas has also been caught up in Weston's divorce from Hila as the allegations and defamation cases touch on him and his family.
