After years of heartbreak and personal changes, Jason Momoa has found love again, and if you’ve been following Hollywood closely, you’ll definitely recognize her. The Aquaman star made his new relationship official on Instagram this past Monday, and since then, the internet has been buzzing with excitement.

While fans had been speculating for a while, Momoa had only hinted at his romance before making it public. The revelation may come as a surprise to some, but the relationship had been simmering for quite some time.

The 44-year-old actor first met his new love interest, 32-year-old actress Adria Arjona, on the set of the 2021 Netflix film Sweet Girl. At the time, he was still legally married to Lisa Bonet, but there’s an important detail—Momoa and Bonet had already been separated for years by then. Although they didn’t officially announce their split until October 7, 2020, they had reportedly been living apart for over five years before that.

When things between Momoa and Arjona started heating up, there was no overlap with his marriage. Bonet later filed for divorce on January 8 of this year, and by the following day, everything was settled amicably. With his divorce officially behind him, Momoa felt free to show the world just how much he adored his new partner. He did so in a big way, sharing a heartfelt Instagram post that included a carousel of photos from their recent trip to Japan.

In the caption, Momoa affectionately referred to Arjona as “mi amor,” a Spanish term of endearment meaning “my love.” And if there was any doubt about the depth of their relationship, the photos made it crystal clear. One image, in particular, stood out—Arjona rested her hand gently on Momoa’s arm while he wrapped his arms around her. The couple looked completely smitten with each other, their body language speaking volumes.

“Japan, you are a dream come true; you blew my mind,” Momoa wrote. “We are very appreciative of everyone who opened their homes, allowing us to create memories with both old and new friends and go on yet another incredible journey with our beloved. Motorcycles and chaos on the road. My sincere regards, J.”

While Arjona’s romantic life has been much more private than Momoa’s, it’s known that she married attorney Edgardo Canales in 2019. However, details about their split remain unclear. It’s unknown whether they formally divorced or simply went their separate ways.

Despite only recently being linked to Momoa publicly, Arjona is already making her mark in his world. His stepdaughter, Zoë Kravitz, even chose Arjona to direct Blink Twice, an upcoming thriller featuring Channing Tatum that is set to hit theaters on August 23. This decision has led many to believe that Arjona has seamlessly integrated into Momoa’s blended family.

Speaking of family, there’s another major event on the horizon—Kravitz and Tatum’s wedding. With their recent engagement, Hollywood is expecting a star-studded affair, and Momoa, Bonet, and Kravitz’s father, Lenny Kravitz, will likely all be in attendance. Despite their separation, Momoa and Bonet have remained committed to co-parenting their two children, 16-year-old Lola and 15-year-old Nakoa-Wolf, away from the public eye.

Momoa and Bonet’s love story spanned decades. After 13 years together, they tied the knot in October 2017. Their relationship was widely admired, making their separation announcement in January 2022 all the more surprising to fans. In a now-deleted Instagram post, the former couple shared a joint statement about their decision, explaining that they, like many others, had been affected by the changing times.

“We’ve all experienced the pressure and adjustments of these revolutionary times… A revolution is taking place, and our family is not an exception,” the statement read. “Feeling and growing from the seismic shifts occurring. Therefore, we announce to our family that we are divorcing. We disclose this not because we believe it to be noteworthy, but rather so that we can live honorably and truthfully as we go about our daily lives.”

Though the split was undoubtedly painful, it seems Momoa has now found happiness again. His relationship with Arjona appears to be blossoming, and from the looks of it, they are ready to take on life’s adventures together. With a whirlwind romance, a deep connection, and the support of those closest to them, it seems like this new chapter in Momoa’s life is just beginning.
