Numerous famous couples break up, few manage to remain friendly, and even fewer manage to continue their professional relationships after their breakup.
The final category includes the equation involving Dwayne Johnson and Dany Garcia. Although the ex-couple separated almost 15 years ago, they have collaborated on numerous occasions in the film industry. The well-known businesswoman has actually been Johnson’s manager for a while.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
Garcia and Johnson had never been hostile toward one another and had mutually decided to end their marriage. The ex-personal couple’s lives and their capacity to go on with new companions were significantly impacted by the same. After they split up, the Black Adam actor started dating Lauren Hashian, with whom he is currently married and has two children. Garcia, on the other hand, had feelings for Dave Rienzi, the personal trainer and close friend of her ex-husband, who was an old business buddy. Oh no, that has to hurt.

Dany Garcia Married Dwayne Johnson’s Personal Trainer After Their Divorce
While Dany Garcia and her ex-husband had already separated in 2007, they officially got divorced a year later in May 2008. Soon after their split, the Red Notice actor started dating Hashian who he would later tie the knot with in 2019. Garcia, 54, too had moved on by then, but in perhaps an ironic twist of events, her significant other happened to be The Rock’s fitness coach and trainer for almost a decade.
The film producer married Dave Rienzi back in 2014 and the couple have been together ever since. Coincidentally enough, Rienzi isn’t only Dwayne Johnson‘s personal trainer but he’s known for being the strength coach of DC’s former Superman, Henry Cavill as well.

Despite that, Johnson and Garcia’s professional relationship has always remained intact with no strains whatsoever. In fact, it was a very conscious decision of theirs to continue to unite on work-related matters instead of burying their business ties along with their marriage.

Although ending ten years of marriage is no easy feat, it was never an “ugly divorce” for either The Rock or Garcia, as the former had remarked in an old interview on Oprah Winfrey’s Vision 2020 Tour.

In a different interview with Piers Morgan, Johnson had explained the same as he delved into the tidbits of their split and its aftermath. “We realized that we weren’t meeting the expectation of [our] marriage,” he said. “And I was very fortunate that I had [Dany] who had the wherewithal to say, ‘OK, we’re gonna go through this and it’s terrible, but somewhere on the other side of this, we’re going to become better.’”
Even Garcia held the same perspective has the San Andreas star did and that is exactly how the two have been able to maintain such amicable terms for this long now – through genuine understanding and honest communication.
