In the world of Hollywood romance, few couples have captured our hearts quite like Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet.
Their love story seemed like it was straight out of a fairytale, but sadly, all good things must come to an end.
Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet first crossed paths in 2004 at a jazz club.
According to Lisa, it wasn’t love at first sight, but there was an undeniable connection between them.
She revealed in an interview with Porter magazine, “I can’t say it was full-on from the moment we saw each other, but we have been together from the day that we met.”Â
Their initial meeting led to a café date where they bonded over grits and Guinness, solidifying their connection.
Building a Family Together
Just three years after they first met, Jason and Lisa welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Lola Iolani Momoa.
This was Lisa’s second child, as she already had a daughter, Zoë Kravitz, from her previous marriage to Lenny Kravitz.
The couple’s family grew even bigger when they welcomed their second child together, a son named Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha.
Collaborating On and Off Screen
In 2014, Jason and Lisa had the opportunity to work together on a project for the first time. Jason made his directorial debut in the film “Road To Paloma,” in which Lisa was cast as his love interest.
This collaboration allowed them to showcase their chemistry both on and off screen, further solidifying their bond.
Tying the Knot
After years of speculation, Jason and Lisa finally tied the knot in October 2017. The couple opted for a low-key wedding held at their house in Topanga, California.
Jason later joked about his infatuation with Lisa, saying, “Ever since I was, like, eight years old and I saw her on TV, I was like, ‘Mommy, I want that one.’ I’m like, ‘I’m gonna stalk you for the rest of my life, and I’m gonna get you.'”
The Restoration of a Classic
In August 2020, Jason surprised Lisa with a romantic gesture that melted hearts around the world.
He restored her 1965 Mustang, which was her first car and a cherished memory from her teenage years.
The couple documented the surprise gift in a YouTube video, capturing Lisa’s joy and excitement.
Little did the world know that just two months later, the couple would go their separate ways.
A Split Filled With Love and Respect
In January 2022, Jason and Lisa shocked their fans by announcing their separation.
However, unlike many Hollywood couples, their split was filled with love and respect.
In a joint statement, they shared, “The love between us carries on, evolving in ways it wishes to be known and lived.”
“We free each other to be who we are learning to become… Our devotion unwavering to this sacred life & our Children.”Â
Despite the end of their romantic relationship, they made it clear that their love and dedication to their children would remain unchanged.
After a whirlwind romance that spanned over a decade, the couple announced their split in January 2022.
Now, more than two years later, Lisa Bonet has finally filed for divorce from her estranged husband.
The Road to Divorce
Court documents revealed that the couple had been separated since October of 2020, just two months after Jason’s heartfelt gesture of restoring Lisa’s beloved Mustang.
While the details of their divorce settlement and the division of assets remain private, it is clear that both parties are committed to an amicable and respectful process.
A Family That Stays Together
Despite the end of their marriage, Jason and Lisa have remained close. They continue to co-parent their two children, Lola and Nakoa-Wolf, and prioritize their family bond.Â
In an interview, Jason emphasized their continued connection, saying, “It’s still family, you know?” This commitment to maintaining a strong family unit is a testament to the love and respect they have for each other.
