Lisa Bonet’s Deal-Breaker
As strong as Momoa’s and Bonet’s marriage seemed to be, everyone has a secret deal-breaker. And Momoa confessed his wife’s weakness was his hair! “My wife would leave me if I cut my hair, so I just don’t cut my hair. I’m not cutting it for a while, I’ll tell you that much.”
So, if imitation truly is one of the highest forms of flattery, then it worked beyond belief! She is crazy about her husband’s wild, wavy hair. However, hairstyles are just the start of their unique relationship.
Getting Married
There were a lot of speculations that Momoa and Bonet were married far before their actual wedding in 2017. Technically, we can say that they were in a “common-law marriage”, but the fact that they were together for so long isn’t why people thought they were already hitched.
Aside from the fact that Momoa referred to Bonet as his wife for about a decade before it became official, the two lovebirds had also been wearing some bling on their ring fingers for a while. This had people convinced that the lovebirds had tied the knot back in 2007, but they wanted to keep their real wedding on the DL. So, how did people find out about the real wedding?
Private Ceremony
The two decided to make it “official” and get married in October 2017. But for them, the idea of marriage and a wedding is a bit different. Instead of having a grand super-celebrity wedding, they wanted to keep the wedding a secret, and chose to host it at their California home. They focused more on the idea of “celebrating [their] love” and with their family and close friends.
However, Momoa was quite upset when he found out someone had leaked their ceremony to the press. He told Entertainment Online that, “[I] haven’t had the chance to stalk someone down and find them yet—but I will.”
Tech-Free Zone
What makes Momoa and Bonet’s relationship so endearing is all of their quirks and bizarre lifestyle habits. Despite the fact the two are both famous for their on-screen professions, they have chosen to have a TV-free home. The reason?
Bonet wants to encourage her children’s imagination to run wild and free. There isn’t even one TV set in their house and Bonet also makes sure to put her phone away when she’s spending time with her kids. However, every week the family pops a bowl of popcorn and watches Saturday Night Live on their one and only computer. Although TV-free, there is still plenty of entertainment around the house.
One Rumor That Was Confirmed as True
Once their wedding rumors ignited, more rumors about Momoa and Bonet personal life were bubbling up. Word on the street was that Bonet was seen walking an unusual animal around their hometown. Porter Magazine featured Lisa Bonet on a cover story about her rustic ranch styled home, and that’s when the truth came out.
“We hear a honking sound and Bonet’s face lights up. It’s her auburn donkey, Freya.” The reporter stated in the article. It was finally confirmed that the Momoa-Bonet family, does in fact own a donkey and take her for walks around town, too! Freya wasn’t the only surprise to pop up, though.
Multiple Exotic Pets
Their auburn donkey Freya might not be the only exotic pet that they own. They also have two beautiful “wolves”, Amba and Zion. These exotic canines are a mixed breed of half wolf and half malamute. And to add another animal to the family, they also have a ball python living in the house.
Both Momoa and Bonet love their rural home and lifestyle in Topanga, California. “I know people give Southern California a bad rap, but I love it here,” Bonet told the reporter for Porter Magazine, “You can create the life you want.” Unusual pets aren’t the only thing to keep the kiddos entertained, though!
