Since Jason Momoa introduced his new girlfriend to the world on Instagram this Monday, the internet has been buzzing with excitement over the new couple!
While some people were caught off guard, those who have been following Jason closely may have noticed the hints he’s been dropping for some time now. It seems their romance has been brewing for quite a while!
The love story began in 2021 when 44-year-old Jason was still married to Lisa Bonet. He met the 32-year-old actress on the set of the Netflix movie Sweet Girl. But here’s where things get interesting!
Even though Momoa and Bonet were still legally married, they had been separated for over five years. They officially split on October 7, 2020, so when Jason started dating his new girlfriend, there was no drama or conflict between him and Bonet.
On January 8 of this year, Lisa Bonet filed for divorce, and just a day later, they settled everything peacefully.
With the divorce behind him, Jason couldn’t wait to share his new love with the world! He went all out on Instagram, posting a carousel of pictures from a recent trip to Japan, showing off their love and happiness. In the post, he called her “mi amor,” which means “my love” in Spanish. And if you weren’t sure what that meant, their adorable photos together say it all!
One picture, in particular, grabbed everyone’s attention. In it, they are wrapped up in a close embrace. Her hand rests gently on his arm, and his arms are around her, showing just how close they have become.
Jason also shared a heartfelt message with his followers: “Japan, you are a dream come true; you blew my mind. We sincerely thank everyone who opened their homes to us, allowing us to embark on yet another amazing journey with our beloved and create memories with both old and new friends. Motorbikes and mayhem on the highway. Warm regards, J.”
But there’s more to the story! In 2019, Arjona married attorney Edgardo Canales. However, not much is known about their separation or whether they officially filed for divorce.
Even though Arjona may seem like a new addition to the Momoa family, she is already making waves. Jason’s stepdaughter, Zoë Kravitz, even chose her to direct Blink Twice, a film starring Channing Tatum, set to hit theaters on August 23.
And there’s another exciting twist! Zoë and Channing are now engaged, and their wedding is expected to be spectacular. There’s a good chance Jason, Lisa, and Lenny Kravitz will be there to celebrate!
Jason and Lisa’s story goes back 13 years of dating before they finally got married in October 2017. Together, they have two children—a 15-year-old son named Nakoa-Wolf and a 16-year-old daughter named Lola—who they continue to raise away from the spotlight.
The couple didn’t announce their split until January 2022, when they shared a heartfelt message on Instagram: “We’ve all felt the strain and adjustments of these revolutionary times. A revolution is taking place, and our family is not an exception… feeling and growing from the seismic shifts occurring.
As a result, we inform our families of our impending divorce. We share this not because we think it’s important to draw attention to ourselves, but rather so that we can live morally and authentically in our day-to-day lives.”
It looks like everyone in this story is ready for a new beginning and new adventures!
