Finding Inspiration
Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa try not to watch each other’s love scenes, but the one time she slipped, it was life-changing. But while watching Momoa and Emilia Clarke’s romantic scene on Game of Thrones, Bonet found it amazing and was really proud of her husband’s work.
Even before then, she looked up to Momoa as an actor. He encouraged Bonet to get back in the game after she took some time off and helped her “prepare emotionally” for her role on Life on Mars.
Custom-Made Wedding Gift
Momoa and Bonet are some of the coolest kids on the block who aren’t afraid to express themselves in their own way. Although they were caught wearing wedding rings long before their marriage, they went beyond the tradition and did something different when they actually tied the knot.
As a wedding gift, Bonet gave Momoa a beautifully custom-made skull necklace. But what makes the gift even more sentimental and romantic is the fact that it was hand-made by his jewelry designer friend, Judiceal; it took him four years to carve it out. That means Bonet pre-ordered his gift years in advance! She nailed his taste in jewelry, but does she understand his activity preferences?
Who’s the Yogi in the Family?
Lisa Bonet is clearly a lover of nature, spirit, and soul. From her TV-free home to her Boho-chic attire, it makes sense that she would also be a huge fan of Yoga. She’s actively practicing yoga and has tried to get her husband to jump in and join, too.
So far, there hasn’t been much luck—although he’s afraid of heights, he’s more interested in hobbies like rock climbing. No worries though, Momoa has accepted his destiny and admitted that eventually, he’s “going to have to” do it.
Going the Distance
These two partners in crime are also both Hollywood superstars, so they understand that long hours and traveling are just part of the job. And of course, it can take a toll on the relationship. After many years together, they still surprised each other with acts of love and kindness.
On Momoa’s 38th birthday, Bonet really outdid herself and surprised him like he never has before. While he was shooting for Aquaman in Australia, she flew out his closest friends, their children, and herself all the way from L.A. to Queensland!
Jumping Ship and Finding a New Home
Both Momoa and Bonet have tossed ideas back and forth about jumping ship and finding a new home. Bonet mentioned to Porter Magazine, that although she is considering Costa Rica, this is a thought in the distant future. Her reasoning? “I don’t think they have an army there. They took that money and put it into education – can you imagine?”
Momoa has suggested for the family to either return to his cherished home-state, Hawaii, or just jump continents to New Zealand. At the end of the day, Bonet is still quite rooted in California. “I’m not quite ready to disappear completely,” she proclaimed.
What is Momoa Like Off Screen?
With Momoa’s fierce and intimidating roles on screen, like Conan the Barbarian, Khal Drogo, and most recently, Aquaman, is he the same off-screen? Bonet reassures to Porter Magazine that he’s a born leader “of charisma, physique … [and] responsibility”, but also “an alpha male who stands for love and family … a rare form of masculinity in this day and age”.
They got together before he became a superstar, but what happened when they decided to team up and actually shoot a movie together?
