Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet reunited this week to celebrate their daughter Lola's graduation. As the former couple reunites over their daughter's big moment, there is an increased focus on their romantic past.

Momoa and Bonet were together for nearly 17 years. The pair met in 2005 at a jazz club in Los Angeles, where they bonded over Guinness and grits. Shortly after their first meeting, they began dating.

The fun fact is that Jason Momoa had previously idolized Lisa Bonet since he was eight years old after seeing her on The Cosby Show.

Over the years, they became one of Hollywood's most admired couples and welcomed two children together: daughter Lola in 2007 and son Nakoa-Wolf in 2008.


Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet's joint statement announcing their split

Despite many people's belief that they had been married for years, the pair actually got married in a private ceremony in 2017.

Their relationship spanned nearly two decades before they announced their separation in January 2022 in a joint statement.

"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. And so~ we share our family news~ that we are parting ways in marriage."

The missive went on:

"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. The love between us carries on, evolving in ways it wishes to be known and lived. We free each other~ to be who we are learning to become…our devotion unwavering to this sacred life & our children. Teaching our children what’s possible~ Living the Prayer May Love Prevail. J & L."

Lisa Bonet later filed for divorce in 2024, and the split was finalized shortly afterward.

Despite the end of their romantic relationship, both celebrities have continuously shown their dedication to their families, and their recent reunion proves just that.
