Jason Momoa's relationship with his wife has come to an
end – but has it affected his feelings towards her whole family?
When "Game of Thrones" actor Jason Momoa and "High Fidelity" star Lisa Bonet tied the knot in 2017
many fans thought it was a love meant to last. At that point,
the couple had been together since 2004.
Recounting their engagement, Bonet had told Net-A-Porter in 2018.
"In that moment, love came and it came big, and he did not run as I think a lot of men
do. He basically picked me up and threw me over his shoulder, caveman style!"
But the couple started 2022 off with a shocking start by announcing their
separation in a joint statement on Instagram. They wrote in part,
"A revolution is unfolding — and our family is of no exception ... feeling and growing
from the seismic shifts occurring. And so — We share our family news:
that we are parting ways in marriage. We share this not because we think it's newsworthy but
so that, as we go about our lives, we may do so with dignity and honesty."
Some time afterward, the post was deleted.
Bonet, who had previously been married to musician Lenny Kravitz from 1987 to 1993,
welcomed a daughter, Zoë, with Kravitz years prior to meeting the "Aquaman" star. Momoa has
previously opened up about what his relationship is really like with his stepdaughter, Zoë Kravitz.
During a 2020 interview with Men's Health, Momoa shared the love he had for then-wife Lisa Bonet,
the children they share, and stepdaughter Zoë. Relaying his thoughts about Zoë's then-husband,
Karl Glusman, and father, Lenny Kravitz, the "Aquaman" star said,
"I love her husband. I love her dad. I hope and pray my daughter
is that talented and loving and open and close to her family."
He also revealed his hopes as his children grow older, telling the publication,
"My wife is very sophisticated and smart and [our kids and I are] kind of like
animals that need to be trained a little better. I'm constantly a work in progress,
and I've just been trying to get better as a father and a husband."
Zoë also initially returned the favor, wishing Momoa a happy birthday in an
Instagram post in August 2020. According to People, she wrote,
"Happy birthday papabear! I love you."
However, the post has since been deleted,
leading many to wonder where the relationship between the two stands now.
Back in October of 2021, Momoa cheered on his former stepdaughter Zoë for following
in her mother’s footsteps. Kravitz has been cast as Catwoman alongside
Robert Pattison in the upcoming "The Batman" film rendition.
When the trailer was released, Momoa took to Instagram to celebrate her hard work
and encourage his fans to see the movie, writing,
"So proud of you zozo bear @zoeisabellakravitz can't wait to see this movie."
Momoa had also brought up his admiration for Kravitz in a 2019 interview with ET,
tied to the release of his "Aquaman" movie.
Momoa told the outlet, quote, "It's perfect casting. It's perfect.
She's gonna kill it." But when he was asked if the two characters might
collaborate within the DC Universe, the actor awkwardly shut the possibility down.
"I don't think it's going that way…"
"Why not?"
"Let's just let them do their thing and let me do my thing."
In 2019, Momoa shared yet another sweet photo with Zoë after she was announced for
the part of Selina Kyle, using the same nickname as before. He wrote,
"I'm so proud of u zozo bear. On and off screen OHANA [...] Lola and Wolfies big sister is
CAT WOMAN 😍😍😍 Unbelievable so freaking stoked. Your going to have so much fun"
Despite his enthusiasm for Kravtiz getting the role, in a 2021 interview with ET,
Momoa opened up about protecting his children from the acting industry.
"Man, one of them wants to do it and I'm not a fan, and I don't want them to."
The actor elaborated, saying he doesn't want to see his kids under the pressure of the spotlight.
"If they want to, maybe. But I don't want them to get into acting. It's very hard on people and
I don't want them to have that kind of pressure."
Prior to their separation, the couple had welcomed a daughter Lola Iolani, in 2007, and a son, Nakoa-Wolf, in 2008.
