Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet have announced they’ve “parted ways” after 16 years together, releasing a lengthy joint statement on social media.

Actor Jason Momoa has announced his shock split from his wife, actress Lisa Bonet.

The Aquaman star, 42, posted a joint statement on his Instagram page today revealing the couple were “parting ways in marriage” after five years.

They had been in a relationship since 2005.

“We have all felt the squeeze and changes of these transformational times … A revolution is unfolding and our family is of no exception,” Momoa’s statement began.

“And so we share our family news. That we are parting ways in marriage.

“We share this not because we think it’s newsworthy. But so that as we go about our lives we may do so with dignity and honesty.”

Momoa and Bonet, 54, share two children together, Lola, 14, and Nakoa-Wolf, 13.

“The love between us carries on, evolving in ways it wishes to be known and lived,” they continued.

“We free each other – to be who we are learning to become. Our devotion unwavering to this sacred life & our children.

“Teaching our children what’s possible – living the prayer. May Love Prevail. J & L.”

The pair were one of showbiz’s rare long-lasting love stories, and were often dubbed Hollywood’s “coolest couple”.

In September, Momoa brought his children to the No Time To Die premiere in London, though Bonet was not in attendance.

Bonet has not been seen on the red carpet with her husband in recent months, including the London premiere of his latest blockbuster, Dune, in October.
