Hollywood's big guy and handsome hunk Jason Momoa, known for his daring characters and risk-taking personality, was actually just like any other youngster next door when it came to wooing his lady love, Lisa Bonet.
In a throwback interview from the December 2020 issue of Men's Health, the Game Of Thrones star opened up about how hesitant, nervous, and shy he was to make the first move toward his then lady love Lisa Bonet, who was 12 years his senior when he was 26.
Momoa admitted that he was "a nervous wreck" at the time. “It’s natural when you meet someone who appears to be intimidating but later turns out to be amazing, intelligent, and funny,” he told the magazine. “She’s a goddess, and you’re a degenerate,” he added.
However, the actor did show some courage and tried. He also advised anyone else who's stuck in a similar situation to do the same and try. “Be you. Try to be funny and make her laugh,” the then 41-year-old said.
He further opened up in the interview and praised his wife Bonet. He admitted she was smart, sophisticated, and sensible. The couple were together for over 16 years before their separation in 2022. They married in 2017 and share two children, Lola and Nakoa-Wolf.
The actor, who has been open about his combined family with Bonet and her ex-husband Lenny Kravitz, is also a dad to Bonet's daughter, actress Zoe Kravitz.
Jason Momoa said that he loves Zoe's father Lenny Kravitz and also Zoe's better half, actor Channing Tatum.
