Jason Momoa Admits Being a Mess When He First Asked Wife Lisa Bonet on a Date
In the December issue of Men's Health, actor Jason Momoa discussed the moment he first met his wife, Lisa Bonet, who is also a great actress.
Momoa, who has been a big fan of Lisa Bonet for a very long time, admitted that he was a "mess" when he first met the actress. He was 26 years old at the time, and the latter was 38.
"Especially when you meet someone you're completely infatuated with and then find out she's amazing, intelligent, and funny and she's a goddess and you're a degenerate," the actor explained.

When asked if has any guidance for the normal individual attempting to sort out some way to date somebody out of their league, Momoa said, "Give up! Don't do it!"
Like other celebrity parents, Momoa had plenty of time to spend with his wife and two children, daughter Lola and son Nakoa-Wolf, due to the novel coronavirus pandemic. During the quarantine, one thing the actor is trying out is taking on some of Bonet's hobbies, like yoga.
Momoa plays tough guys and action heroes. However, the actor confessed to being a big softie at heart, as reported by Entertainment Tonight. He said that he would love to take parts outside of his box in his future roles.
