00:00Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa have been blissfully joined at the hip after meeting through mutual

00:05friends in 2004, and this gorgeous Hollywood couple has been snagging gossip headlines

00:10ever since.

00:11It's the secrecy surrounding their nuptials and their unorthodox lifestyle that really

00:15raises eyebrows.

00:16Here are some of the not-so-usual things about the couple's relationship.

00:20A fanboy crush

00:22Fans of The Cosby Show remember Lisa Bonet as the eccentric and free-spirited fan favorite

00:26Denise Huxtable, and Bonet's future husband was one of many viewers who fell in love

00:31with her on the small screen.

00:32Momoa told James Corden that he had his eye on Bonet since he was eight years old, saying,

00:37"...I saw it on the TV, and I was like, Mommy, I want that one.

00:41I'm like, I'm gonna stalk you for the rest of my life, and I'm gonna get you."

00:45Momoa finally came clean about his stalker past after he and Bonet had their second child,

00:50but the fact that their relationship has lasted longer than most Hollywood romances seems proof

00:54enough that Bonet finds it all totally endearing.

00:57Even a caveman can do it

00:59To truly get this relationship, we have to look back to its inception in 2004, when Bonet

01:04and her friends hit up a jazz club in Los Angeles, and Momoa was there with his buddies.

01:09He told James Corden it was like fireworks when they first met, saying,

01:12"...she goes, you know, I'm, you know, I'm Lisa, and I'm like..."

01:16"...it works, yes."

01:17"...and I'm just like..."

01:18"...I turn around to my friend and I'm just like..."

01:19They then stopped at a cafe, where Momoa ate a bowl of grits while Bonet ordered a guinea

01:24penis, which just so happens to be Momoa's favorite beer of all time.

01:28Bonet recalled to Porter magazine,

01:30"...in that moment, love came and it came big.

01:33He basically picked me up and threw me over his shoulder, caveman style."

01:37A super-secret marriage

01:39Momoa has frequently referred to Bonet as his wife in various interviews, which led many

01:44to believe the couple walked down the aisle in 2007.

01:47But when a source claimed the couple wed in November 2017, fans felt duped.

01:51The source told Us Weekly,

01:52Apparently, they weren't officially married until then.

01:56They said they made it official.

01:57"...do you feel like newlyweds again?

02:00Oh yeah, oh yeah, if I wasn't on camera right now, I would tell you."

02:06As to why they pretended to be married for so long, it appears that they consider themselves

02:09committed without having legalized their union.

02:13Momoa said of the actual wedding,

02:14"...I've been married to my wife for 12 years.

02:17It was just a gathering of our families and just celebrating our love."

02:23Luddite lovers

02:24Momoa and Bonet are non-conformists, who shun the modern electronics that most of us can't

02:29live without.

02:30In a 2014 interview with Essence, Bonet admitted that she had never even been on Facebook, saying,

02:35"...it's just not on my radar."

02:37The couple and their two children are also TV-free, and Bonet tries their best to remain

02:41as media-free as possible.

02:43Even though she and Momoa are huge fans of SNL and watch episodes on their computer, Bonet

02:48believes that keeping their children from being glued to the tube helps to cultivate their

02:52imaginations.

02:53Hanging with Lenny like it's no big deal

02:56The media thrives on messy celebrity divorces, but Bonet revealed to Porter magazine that

03:01she still has a tight bond with her ex-husband, Lenny Kravitz, who's also the father of their

03:06eldest daughter, Zoe Kravitz.

03:08She says,

03:09"...it's fantastic.

03:10It's full-on family love."

03:11She's even ditched Momoa a few times to hit the red carpet alongside Lenny, like at the

03:152015 Met Gala.

03:17In a feature for Oprah's Masterclass, Lenny said,

03:19"...we're one big happy family.

03:23It's beautiful, and it just shows you what can be done."

03:26Zoe even detailed their intertwined family dynamics, telling Ocean Drive magazine,

03:31"...my dad and Momoa get along really well.

03:34As long as everyone can be in the same room together and have love for each other, it's

03:37totally healthy."

03:39Drunk tattoos

03:40Momoa sports some pretty impressive ink, and even shares a matching tattoo with Bonet and

03:45her daughter Zoe, according to Hollywood.com.

03:47Essence reported the inked phrase is French for,

03:50"...be always drunk."

03:52To make this whole tattoo situation even more strange, another unidentified man who's chummy

03:56with the star has the same tat as well.

04:00Love and Hollywood

04:01Momoa refused to watch his wife's love scene on Ray Donovan, telling Entertainment Tonight

04:06Canada,

04:07"...you know what the hard thing is?

04:08I just don't really want to see certain things.

04:10I love her.

04:11It's our job, but I gotta separate it."

04:13He even admitted that he didn't want her to see his Game of Thrones love scenes, either.

04:17He said,

04:18"...we were supposed to go to the premiere for the first two episodes.

04:20I was like, nah, we're not going.

04:23She was like, you're not gonna stop me from watching it."

04:25Bonet eventually watched season one, and Momoa revealed,

04:28"...she was just so proud.

04:30She stayed up all night, watched the whole thing, and was obsessed."
