Jason Momoa appeared dishevelled as he emerged from his luxury Ford RV in a friend’s front yard after announcing his shock divorce from wife Lisa Bonet.

Exclusive photographs obtained by The Sun show a tired-looking Momoa, 42, stepping out without his wedding band as he was supported by friends amid his split from his partner of almost 16 years.

Wearing thick-rimmed brown glasses with his untidy Aquaman locks flowing around his shoulders, the star appeared a world away from his red carpet photogenic self.

Pictures show the tattooed Momoa wearing a ripped oversized lilac T-shirt and jeans as he strolled around his friend’s yard – miles from the home he shares with Bonet, 54, and their two children in Topanga, California.

It is not known if he has officially moved out of their hilltop residence, thought to be worth $3.5 million, but a source told The Sun he was staying at a friend’s place last week after news broke of his split.

The star’s dark-coloured camper is not just any Ford RV – it’s a custom EarthRoamer XV-LTi 026, which he loves so much he took it to the Aquaman premiere in 2018.

It is said to retail at $1.04 million and is the perfect luxury mobile home – one of dozens of impressive vehicles in Momoa’s epic collection, which also includes motorcycles.

A separate source told The Sun: “He stays in it quite often and has opted to sleep in there instead of getting a hotel on set so he can be by the beach. He’s really not a private jet, luxury resort kind of guy.”

The actor, who is six feet and four inches and is said to be worth a whopping $19.5 million, confirmed he and Bonet had made the decision to call it quits in an Instagram post on January 13.

Fans were left stunned by the news as they were believed to have one of the most successful marriages in Hollywood.

Announcing their divorce, he wrote: “We have all felt the squeeze and changes of these transformational times … A revolution is unfolding – and our family is of no exception …

“Feeling and growing from the seismic shifts occurring

“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 continued: “The love between us carries on, evolving in ways it wishes to be known and lives.

“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.”

He included a photo of a sunset, several tall flags, and what appeared to be one of his children holding a bird.

Despite their divorce announcement, The Sun can confirm they have yet to file papers in Los Angeles.

Though they were together for nearly two decades, the duo tied the knot back in October 2017 at their Topanga home.

It’s rumoured that a traditional Maori haka was performed for Jason at his request, a nod to his Hawaiian heritage.

The star shares daughter Lola, 14, and son Nakoa-Wolf, 12, with Lisa, who also has daughter Zoe, 33, with ex Lenny Kravitz.

Shock announcement

The couple met in a New York jazz club through mutual friends in 2005.

Speaking with James Corden on The Late Late Show, the actor previously said: “We just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

“I actually had dreaded my hair for her. I had dreadlocks, she had dreadlocks. I literally turned my head around and I see her and she goes, ‘I’m Lisa.’

“I turned around to my friend and I screamed. I had fireworks going off inside. I convinced her to take me home because I was living in a hotel.”

The actor has loved Bonet for many years from afar, as he previously described her as his “dream girl.”

“[She was] literally my childhood crush. I mean, I didn’t tell her that. I didn’t let her know I was a stalker until after we had the kids,” he told Esquire.

He added that marrying the love of his life had given him a lot of confidence in his career in Hollywood.

Momoa joked: “If someone says something isn’t possible, I’m like, ‘Listen here, I married Lisa Bonet. Anything is f***ing possible.’”
