Working with a Significant Other
This actually wasn’t Lisa Bonet’s first time working with her significant other. In 1989, Lenny Kravitz first released a music video for his song “Let Love Rule”. And guess who was the director? That’s right! It was Lisa Bonet, herself.
Not only did she direct the music video, she actually contributed and helped write some of the lyrics for a couple of songs on that album. Just like how Bonet and Kravitz got together before Kravitz made it big, Momoa and Bonet got together before Momoa became a superstar, too! So, what happened when they teamed up to shoot Momoa’s movie together?
Love is Their Super Power
Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa’s quirky relationship is actually super inspiring and heart-warming. They have shown us that they can conquer age differences, height differences, the hard conditions of acting, and raising a family together.
Even though Momoa was nervous to shoot with his beloved wife, he enthusiastically conveyed to Fox News Magazinethat, “she really lights up the film, I love watching her. She’s a great talent.” But alas, behind the scenes, cracks started to appear.
A Super-Hero Fan Family
Jason Momoa has been a big fan of superheroes for a while, and his whole family has become superfans too! Momoa mentioned in an interview with Sirius XM that his kids were living on set with him while shooting Aquaman in Australia.
But even before there were “Little Momoas” running around on set, the kids got very excited for his role on Justice League. Their daughter Lola’s favorite is Wonder-Woman and their son’s Nakoa’s favorite is Batman.
Protecting Their Cubs
As far as it comes to spending time with family, both Momoa and Bonet share the same views. They’ve tried to create a trusting space for their children and do whatever they can to protect them. Both Momoa and Bonet try to keep drama, negativity, or the hardships of their work life away from the kids.
Momoa mentioned to Us Weekly, “I can really care less about myself; I just want to always stay papa to them. They don’t see that version of me and I like that — I like being able to keep it so I’m just papa bear.” What about Zoë?
Praising Her Daughter
Jason Momoa is known as “Papa Bear” to all his kids, and it’s no question that Lisa Bonet is just as loving as a mama bear. Bonet shared her praise for her daughter Zoë and how she’s grown to be an incredible young woman with Us Weekly.
“For a parent to have a child out in our insane world and not have to worry about her other than the general ‘may she always be protected’—in terms of her making decisions for herself, I feel completely at ease with that, and that’s such a great thing.” A new member was just added to this amazing family, too!
Calling it Quits
After spending more than a decade together and bringing two children into the world, Bonet and Momoa shocked their fans in January 2022 when they announced they’re splitting up.
“We have all felt the squeeze and changes of these transformational times … A revolution is unfolding and our family is of no exception … feeling and growing from the seismic shifts occurring,” the statement read. “And so we share our family news that we are parting ways in marriage.” We just hope they stay friendly as Bonet is with her former ex.
