Recently, the public was shocked to learn that Jason Momoa and his wife, Lisa Bonet, split. They seemed to be one the strongest couples in Hollywood with a romantic story that deserved to be the plot of a movie. As a kid, Jason dreamed of Lisa becoming “his” one day, and thanks to fate, that dream came true at the very right moment.
We at Bright Side want to recall the development of the romantic relationship of one of the most interesting couples in Hollywood.
Lisa Bonet was Jason Momoa’s crush when he was a kid.
The beginning of this love story seemed to be planned long before the 2 actually met. The first time Jason saw Lisa was on screen in a popular TV series from the 1980s, and he liked her immediately. At that time, he was only 8 years old and she was 21, but it never stood in the way of this young boy’s childhood crush.
As Jason himself said when he saw Lisa for the first time, he thought, “I’m going to stalk you for the rest of my life and I’m going to get you.” Actually, he just wanted to meet with her, and this happened more than 20 years later.
They first met each other in 2005.
The fateful acquaintance took place at a party with mutual friends in 2005. As Jason said, “We just happened to be in the right place at the right time.” At this party, Lisa agreed to Jason’s invitation to grab a drink with him at a nearby bar. Since that moment, the stars have not parted.
As Lisa noticed, “Jason basically picked me up and threw me over his shoulder, caveman style!”
