Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet were married in 2017. Before being married to Momoa, Bonet was married to musician Lenny Kravitz, and the two share a daughter, Zoe. Fans have speculated about Momoa and Kravitz’s relationship, having been married to the same woman. Let’s take a look at their past and how they are getting along these days.

Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet originally met at a New Edition concert in the 80s. Kravitz was engaged to another woman, and Bonet was finding stardom on The Cosby Show. Kravitz’s career had not taken off yet, but soon after the couple began dating, his career began to pick up steam. The couple married in 1987 and soon after welcomed their daughter Zoe in 1988. 

The couple separated in 1991 and divorced in 1993. Kravitz takes responsibility for the split and has stated that he just wasn’t ready emotionally for marriage. Even though the couple has split, they remain on good terms for the sake of their daughter. It seems there were no ill feelings between the two.

And then came Jason Momoa

Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet met in 2005, and it was instant sparks for the couple. However, Momoa had been crushing on Bonet since her days on The Cosby Show. The couple met at a jazz club in LA. They have been together every day since, have two children together, and married in 2017.

The couple has sung each other’s praises on social media and interviews over the years. Clearly, they are deeply in love. Momoa says that he has had a crush on her since he watched her on TV all those years ago. Meanwhile, Bonet says that she has found in Momoa the love of her life.

One would think that there would be animosity between exes, especially when there are children involved. However, Lenny Kravitz and Jason Momoa are more than just civil to each other. In a touching Twitter and Instagram post, Kravitz professed his love for Momoa in the sweetest and kindest way. In the post, Kravitz said, “Happy Birthday, Jason. I’m proud to call you my brother. One love. One family.”

Momoa is similarly inclined to return the love in kind. Momoa has posted photos of himself and Kravitz on various social media platforms and is always friendly and respectful. In addition to his love and respect for Kravitz, Momoa also has a great relationship with Kravitz and Bonet’s daughter Zoe. They have cute nicknames for each other. Zoe calls him Papa Bear, and Momoa calls her Zozo Bear. 

Talk about blended family goals. This blended family shows how to do it right. No animosity or jealousy, only mutual respect, and love for everyone. If only every divorced couple could behave this way, perhaps divorce wouldn’t be such a stressful prospect. 

There is a lot to be learned here from these special people. While some people can struggle with watching their former partners move on, Kravitz has taken the high road and chosen to embrace the relationship. The fact that everyone gets along in this family is nothing short of amazing. Kravitz’s motto of “let love rule” shines through not only in his music but in his life as well. Additionally, Momoa is similarly inclined to show respect and love for the man that has so readily accepted him into his life and refers to him as a brother. It’s easy to see why Bonet fell in love with both men. Despite their heartbreakingly good looks, clearly, they both have hearts of gold. It seems as if Bonet has hit the love lottery twice in her life.
