Jason Momoa set the internet on fire when he introduced his new girlfriend on Instagram this Monday, and the pair quickly became the hottest topic online.
While this news might have shocked some people, Jason has actually been dropping hints about their romance for a while. His fans, if they were paying close attention, might have noticed these clues.
The 44-year-old actor first met his new love, a 32-year-old actress, while working on the 2021 Netflix movie Sweet Girl. But here’s where it gets interesting: at the time, Jason was still married to Lisa Bonet. However, there’s a twist—Jason and Bonet had been separated for over five years, even though they were still legally married.
The official separation between Jason and Bonet took place on October 7, 2020, so by the time he started dating Arjona, there was no drama or overlap. Then, on January 8 of this year, Bonet filed for divorce, and just one day later, their cases were settled peacefully.
With everything out in the open, Jason was ready to show off his love for Arjona to the world. He went all out by sharing a carousel of pictures from their recent trip to Japan. In his heartfelt post, he called her “mi amor,” which means “my love” in Spanish. If the words didn’t say enough, their sweet photos together definitely did!
One photo, in particular, captured everyone’s attention. In it, Arjona gently rests her hand on Jason’s arm, while he wraps his arms around her in a close, loving embrace. Their body language clearly shows just how close and connected they are.
Jason also couldn’t help but gush about their trip to Japan. He wrote, “Japan, you are a dream come true; you blew my mind.” He added, “We’re so grateful to everyone who welcomed us into their homes, allowing us to go on another amazing journey with our loved ones, making memories with both old and new friends. Motorbikes and mayhem on the highway. Warm regards, J.”
As for Arjona’s past, it’s a bit of a mystery. In 2019, she married attorney Edgardo Canales, but not much is known about their separation or whether they’ve divorced.
Even though it might seem like Arjona is new to Jason’s life, she’s already becoming part of the family. In fact, Jason’s stepdaughter, Zoë Kravitz, chose Arjona to direct her new movie Blink Twice, which is set to hit theaters on August 23 and stars Channing Tatum.
And speaking of Kravitz, she’s now engaged to Tatum, and their upcoming wedding is sure to be a spectacular event. You can bet Jason, Bonet, and Lenny Kravitz will all be there.
Jason and Bonet had a long history together. They dated for 13 years before finally getting married in October 2017. Together, they have two children—a 16-year-old daughter named Lola and a 15-year-old son named Nakoa-Wolf—who they continue to raise privately, away from the public eye.
The couple didn’t publicly announce their split until January 2022. In a joint statement, they wrote, “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.”
They added, “As a result, we are informing our families of our impending divorce. We share this not to gain attention, but so that we can live our lives with honesty and integrity every day.”
