Jason Momoa personal life.

He first meets his fiancée, Simmone Jade Mackinnon, on the set of Baywatch in 1999. They enjoy six years together and become engaged in 2004. However, the engagement is called off when he starts a relationship with actress Lisa Bonet in 2005. Contrary to popular belief, he and Lisa Bonet don't actually marry until October 2017, even though they have two children together—Lola Iolani, born in July 2007, and Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha, born in December 2008. In January 2022, he and Bonet publicly announce their split.

To prepare for roles, he often takes them to heart. He learns martial arts for his character Ronon in Stargate Atlantis. In 2017, he starts practicing Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

He has a deep passion for heavy metal music and often says that he builds his characters based on metal songs. Notably, members of the metal band Archspire make cameo appearances in his TV series See, where he also trains with the band's vocalist, Oli Peters, to perfect his screaming technique for a significant scene. In 2020, he even features in the song "Doom" by the black metal band Scour.

He's not just about acting and music; he's a hobby musician himself. He plays various instruments like the bass guitar, mandolin, ukulele, and guitar, the first of which he picks up after being inspired by Tool's song "Sober."

His body tells a story too. He has numerous tattoos, including a half-sleeve on his left forearm, a tribute to his family god, or "aumakua."

He also holds strong beliefs and isn't afraid to stand up for them. He participates in protests against the building of the Thirty Meter Telescope on Mauna Kea, which is a holy spiritual site for native Hawaiians.

But life hasn't always been smooth sailing. On November 15, 2008, he sustains a facial scar when he is slashed across the face with a broken beer glass during an altercation at Birds Cafe, a tavern in Hollywood. He undergoes reconstructive surgery, receiving approximately 140 stitches, and the assailant is later sentenced to five years in prison for the attack. The scar remains, adding a unique touch to his later work.
