“Cosby Show” and “It’s A Different World” actress legend, Lisa Bonet, has just hit their fans hard with the news that she and her hubby, Jason Momoa, are saying ‘Peace out’ to one another, after their 16-year relationship. This news was unexpected because for years, they’ve been looking like the happiest, most loving couple ever…and fans were always rooting for them.
But unfortunately folks, it looks like Lisa and Jason won’t be taking their marital status to Ossie Davie-and-Ruby Dee levels.
They’ve just released a joint statement online, confessing that they are “parting ways in marriage.”
Although they didn’t get too specific, they did state that their reasoning for the split is because they “felt the squeeze and changes of these transformational times” … and are “feeling and growing from the seismic shifts occurring.”
Seems like their “transformative times” wording could possibly translate into, ‘once the pandemic hit, we drove each other crazy having to spend so much time together under one roof for so long…and we learned a lot more about how much we love each other, but don’t necessarily like each other’s views, quirks, societal stances, and so on.’ However, don’t quote us on that.
The reason they said they’ve decided to break this news publicly is because they wanna move forward in life with “dignity and honesty” … and are therefore breaking free from each other in order to “be who we are learning to become.”
Although the proud parents are splitting up, they wanted to make to clear to fans that their love remains rock solid….but that they’re just not into the marriage thing anymore…at least not to each other.
Shortly before the COVID pandemic hit the U.S., the “Game of Thrones” star shared a rare photo of Lisa Bonet on his Instagram page. In it, she’s seen gazing off camera at him, with a slight grin and adoring eyes, as if she was just checkin’ him out on their first date, for the first time. Jason’s captioned his photo with:
“The way you look at me. fuc*ing love you woman. My everything ❤️❤️”
His post garnered over a million likes from fans who admired their love….and it also gave us us throwback New Edition “Lost In Love” vibes, where Ralph, Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Mike sang, “I’m lost in loooove [I can’t live without you]/ I’m lost in loooove [All my dreams around you]…
But sadly, their union is coming to an end.
The two began dating in 2005, and married in 2017. They share two daughters — Lola Iolani Momoa and Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa. Lisa also shares daughter, actress Zoe Kravitz, with her ex-husband/rock star, Lenny Kravitz.
Wishing them both the best going forward.
