Lisa Bonet has filed for divorce from Jason Momoa 18 years after they became a couple. 

The 56-year-old Bonet, whose legal name is Lilakoi Moon, filed documents to end her marriage to the 44-year-old Momoa in Los Angeles County court on Monday. 

The filing comes nearly two years after they announced their separation and cites irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. 

The petition says neither person should get financial support and that the two have agreed on how to split their assets. It also says they should have joint custody of their 16-year-old daughter and 15-year-old son.

Momoa is best known for his roles in the "Aquaman" movies and on the smash TV series "Game of Thrones". Bonet was a star of "The Cosby Show" and its spinoff "A Different World" as well as the movies "High Fidelity" and "Enemy of the State".

The two met and started dating in 2005 but did not legally marry until 2017. Their divorce documents give their separation date as October 2020, more than a year before their announcement. It will be at least six months before a judge declares them divorced.

It was the first marriage for Momoa and the second for Bonet, who was previously married to musician Lenny Kravitz and has another daughter, actress Zoë Kravitz, with him.
