Who Was Lenny Kravitz Married To? Inside the Rockstar’s Love Life
Lenny Kravitz continues to charm the world with his incredible musical talent, and rockstar looks. But his superstar status comes with intriguing relationships with high-profile celebrities.
Born in New York on May 26, 1964, Kravitz's rise to fame had been written in the stars. He gained musical prominence in the late 1980s and also acted in various films.
The rock legend, who lived in a bit of solitude on the Bahamas island of Eleuthera, had at one point been engaged to actress Nicole Kidman and supermodel Adriana Lima. But he never married either of them.

WHO DID LENNY KRAVITZ MARRY?
Following his failed engagements with Kidman and the Brazilian supermodel, Kravitz tied the knot with "The Cosby Show" star Lisa Bonet. He was a 23-year-old when he met Bonet.
On her 20th birthday on November 16, 1987, Bonet eloped with the "Fly Away" hitmaker, and they exchanged wedding vows at the Chapel of Love in Las Vegas. They lived in the Bahamas and welcomed their daughter, Zoë, the following year.
Bonet was one of the reasons Kravitz successfully cemented his career in music. She helped him write songs for his first album, according to the rock icon. He said:
"And watching her do what she did, how she maneuvered, in her artistic life—it was that last thing I needed, on this road."
Bonet co-wrote two songs in Kravitz's 1989 hit debut album "Let Love Rule." The musician said their musical collaborations were the reasons he's still working in the industry today.

Their shared interest in creative pursuits helped Bonet and Kravitz maintain a seamless relationship. But sadly, their marriage did not last. They divorced amicably in 1993.
Zoë was only four when her iconic parents split. But Bonet and Kravitz have maintained a strong connection despite their divorce.
WHO IS LENNY KRAVITZ AND LISA BONET'S DAUGHTER?
A Hollywood royalty, Zoë is a brilliant actress and singer who bears an uncanny resemblance to her famous mother. The 33-year-old actress continues to make her mark in the industry.
Although she is grateful for her famous parents, Zoë admitted that she feels embarrassed over her family name. She said people would assume that her success is because of Bonet and Kravitz.
Zoë has worked her way up to where she is today. She previously released albums and appeared in several films, including "Mad Max: Fury Road" and "High Fidelity."
This year, Zoë is set to take on the iconic character Selina Kyle, also known as Catwoman, in the upcoming "The Batman" film with actor Robert Pattinson.
Meanwhile, the actress's dating life has also been in the spotlight. She is dating actor Channing Tatum after divorcing her former husband, Karl Gusman, in 2019.
LENNY KRAVITZ HAS A BROMANCE WITH JASON MOMOA
Meanwhile, Bonet previously married a much younger actor, Jason Momoa, who has become close friends with Kravitz. Zoë's mother and the "Aquaman" star tied the knot in 2017.
Momoa and Bonet welcomed two adorable children: Lola, 14, and Nakoa-Wolf, 13. Unfortunately, both split in January 2022, but that doesn't mean they became a bitter pair.
The former couple has remained close, and Momoa's bond with Kravitz has stayed strong. The musician is proud of his tight bond with Momoa and their unique family. He said:
"People can't believe how tight Jason and I are, or how tight I still am with Zoë's mom, how we all relate. We just do it because that's what you do. You let love rule, right? I mean, obviously, after a breakup, it's work—it takes some work and time, healing and reflection."
Momoa and the "Are You Gonna Go My Way" singer have become supportive dads to Zoë. Previously, the Hawaiian actor gifted Kravitz a matching ring that symbolized their friendship.
