Lisa Bonet & Jason Momoa Settle Divorce a Day after Filing Though They Are Not Yet Legally Single - Details
Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa, who announced their separation early last year, have settled their divorce just a day after filing. Despite the swift legal actions, the couple will only be declared single by the court on July 9, 2024.
After announcing their separation, Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet wasted no time and moved to file for divorce. Their divorce was granted only a day after filing on Monday, suggesting that the ex-couple had already agreed on the terms of their divorce.
Their Marital Settlement Agreement outlines Momoa and Bonet's responsibilities as parents to their two teenage children, Lola and Nakoa-Wolf. Besides the kids, Bonet has a daughter, Zoe Kravitz, from a previous marriage.

As their agreement states, both parents have joint legal custody of their two children and will be equally responsible for Lola and Nakoa-Wolf's wellbeing, including education and health. As of writing, no child support has been agreed upon.
While they share in their children's expenses, a parent traveling with the children should shoulder the latter's costs. Momoa and Bonet have also waived any spousal support, a decision which is permanent in court.

Despite the legal movement, the couple, who were together for 16 years, is not yet officially single. Documents of their divorce reportedly indicate that the legal process is in motion but has yet to reach its conclusion.
The couple initially announced their separation in January 2022 through a now-deleted post. Their statement reportedly highlighted their commitment to parenting, their mutual decision to part ways, and their shared love that has evolved into another form.
However, the date of separation listed in their paperwork was October 7, 2020, hinting that they have been split up for some time. The document indicates that the celebrity couple, who tied the knot in 2017, had three years of wedded bliss.
As it has been a year since announcing their separation to the public, fans and social media users alike have linked Jason Momoa and Kelly Clarkson. The duo showed no signs of being in a romantic relationship. However, many enjoyed their collaboration in Clarkson's show and the "Aquaman's" special shoutout to her on Instagram.
