At the time Momoa stated, “I am very much in a relationship,” he said at the time, teasing about his partner’s identity, “You’ll find out very soon.”

Adria Arjona was born on April 25, 1992, in San Juan, Puerto Rico, to Leslie Torres and Ricardo Arjona. Although she was born in Puerto Rico, she spent her childhood in Mexico City, where she lived until her teenage years. In an interview with Numéro Netherlands, she discussed her diverse background, noting that she “grew up all over the place” and has Guatemalan roots on her father’s side.
“I feel very Puerto Rican when I’m in the island. I feel very Guatemalan when I’m in Guatemala. I feel Mexican when I’m in Mexico,” explained Adria Arjona. She added, “I don’t know where I identify from, that’s really hard for me. And even when I speak Spanish, no one can really catch my accent. I’m proud to be Puerto Rican, I am proud to be Guatemalan, I am proud to have been raised in Mexico, but I’m also proud that I don’t feel like I belong anywhere. And that’s helped me through my acting. I don’t have tied roots anywhere. “
Arjona is not the only member of her family involved in the entertainment industry. Arjona’s father is a father is the internationally renowned singer and songwriter Ricardo Arjona.
After leaving Mexico at the age of 12 and moving to Miami, Adria Arjona eventually made her way to New York City when she turned 18. There, she pursued her acting career by studying at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute.
