The pair have two children together, a daughter, Lola, who was born in 2007, and a son, Nakoa-Wolf, born in 2008. Their marriage was actually conducted in secret when it occurred only to be leaked to the press, many of whom had assumed they’d been married for years at that point. When ET asked Momoa about the wedding at the press junket for Justice League that , he made it clear that he was looking for the perpetrator.
“I thought it would have stayed that way, but some a**hole leaked it and I will find you,” Momoa told the interviewer. As far as we know he didn’t find out who it was.
Momoa and Bonet have been fan darlings for years, appearing at events together with matching outfits. Both Momoa and Bonet also appeared in a Super Bowl commercial back in 2020, one that revealed the “real” Jason Momoa as a bald, non-muscular little guy, with Bonet helping him lift some tiny weights for exercise.
Bonet became notable for playing Denise Huxtable on The Cosby Show but also appeared in Angel Heart, Ray Donovan, and others. She’s also known for having previously been married to singer Lenny Kravitz with whom she had her first child, actress Zoë Kravitz.
