Ever since Jason Momoa introduced his new girlfriend on Instagram this past Monday, the internet has been buzzing nonstop!
Some fans were shocked by the news, but if you’ve been keeping an eye on Jason, you might have noticed that he’s been dropping hints about this romance for a while. Turns out, their love story has been building for quite some time!
It all started back in 2021 when 44-year-old Jason was still married to Lisa Bonet. He met his new girlfriend, a 32-year-old actress, while filming the Netflix movie Sweet Girl. But here’s the twist!
Even though Jason and Lisa were still legally married, they had actually been separated for more than five years. The official separation date was October 7, 2020, so when Jason began dating his new girlfriend, there was no conflict or drama between him and Lisa.
Then, on January 8 of this year, Lisa Bonet filed for divorce, and just a day later, everything was settled smoothly and amicably.
With the divorce finalized, Jason didn’t waste any time showing the world how much he loved his new partner! He posted a series of photos from their recent trip to Japan, creating a beautiful photo carousel on Instagram. In one of the posts, he called her “mi amor,” which means “my love” in Spanish. If there was any doubt about his feelings, their sweet photos together said it all!
One photo, in particular, got everyone talking. In it, the two are wrapped in a close embrace, her hand gently resting on his arm while his arms wrap around her. Their love is crystal clear!
Jason also poured his heart out in the caption: “Japan, you are a dream come true; you blew my mind. We sincerely thank everyone who opened their homes to us so that we could embark on yet another amazing journey with our beloved and make memories with both old and new friends. Motorbikes and mayhem on the highway. Warm regards, J.”
But there’s more! Did you know that in 2019, Arjona got married to an attorney named Edgardo Canales? However, not much is known about their separation or whether they ever filed for divorce.
And while some might think Arjona is new to the Momoa clan, she’s already making a splash! Jason’s stepdaughter, Zoë Kravitz, even picked her to direct a movie called Blink Twice, starring Channing Tatum, which is set to hit theaters on August 23.
There’s also another fun twist! Zoë and Channing recently got engaged, and their wedding promises to be spectacular. It’s likely that Jason, Lisa, and Lenny Kravitz will all be there to join in on the celebration!
Jason and Lisa’s own story spans 13 years of dating before they finally tied the knot in October 2017. They share two children: 15-year-old son Nakoa-Wolf and 16-year-old daughter Lola, who they continue to raise privately.
The couple didn’t announce their separation until January 2022. In a heartfelt joint statement on Instagram, 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.
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.”
Looks like everyone in this story is embracing new chapters and exciting adventures!
