Jason Momoa is living in his camper van parked at a friend’s Los Angeles house after announcing his shock divorce from wife Lisa Bonet this month.
The Aquaman star, 42, who is worth $14million, was spotted emerging from the $750k van earlier this week, looking disheveled with ripped clothing.
Jason has reportedly parked the Ford RV, which he has previously used as accomodation while filming on location, in a friend’s front yard just miles away from the $3.5million home he used to share with Lisa and their children.

Jason was seen wearing a lilac t-shirt covered in rips as he went about his morning at the camper van, strolling around the yard with his assistant.
He is staying at a friend’s LA home, close to the $3.5million Topanaga hillside house where Lisa and their two children are still living.
It is not known if he has officially moved out of the family home.
Jason had his luxurious EarthRoamer XV-LTi 026 RV customised in 2018, with the home away from home kitted out with a Nespresso machine, an induction cooktop and an outdoor kitchen. There’s also a kingsize mattress, ideal for the 6ft 3in actor.

The star is so devoted to his camper van that he bought it to the premiere of the first Aquaman movie in 2018.
He’s also used it in place of a hotel while filming away from home, with an insider telling 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 Hawaiian hunk enjoys life on the road. Before he shot to fame he spent a break from filming Game Of Thrones living in a tiny van, travelling around Ireland with a friend as he ‘was too broke to fly home’.

Jason and Lisa announced they were divorcing earlier this month, with a source telling People recently that they couple ‘have grown apart because of different focuses’, with Jason, 42, focusing on his booming career and Lisa, 54, ‘enjoying her life in LA‘ with ‘no interest of joining’ him on location for his projects.
The insider said that the former lovebirds ‘were amazing for years, until they no longer were,’ noting that that the split did not happen ‘overnight.’
Adding: ‘A few years ago, Jason was struggling to find work. Now his career is booming. And he wants to keep working as much as he can.’

However, Lisa ‘has had no interest in joining’ Jason on every location’ because ‘she enjoys her life in LA,’ the source revealed.
With him on location for projects and Lisa in LA ‘it’s been difficult for them to be apart,’ which took a toll on their marriage.
The source added that ‘for some people, it [distance] might strengthen their marriage. For Lisa and Jason’s marriage, being apart was a disaster.’
The duo are keeping the peace and are ‘mature’ as they navigate the split with their two children: daughter Lola, 14, and Nakoa-Wolf, 13.

Jason and Lisa began dating in 2005, welcoming daughter Lola in 2007 and son Nakoa-Wolf in 2008; they wed in October 2017.
Lisa has daughter Zoe Kravitz, 33, with ex-husband Lenny Kravitz.
The source insisted ‘it’s not going to be some scandalous divorce where they trash talk each other. They are both very spiritual and believe in a higher power.’
In September, Jason posed with his kids at the James Bond No Time To Die premiere in London; he attended the event in between filming Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom, the sequel to the 2018 blockbuster, in the UK.
