Lauren Hashian, Dwayne Johnson’s wife, is equally successful as her husband. She might not be an actor, but she is nevertheless well-known and has made appearances in different media.
The Rock was previously married to Dany Garcia before meeting his current spouse. At the University of Miami, they crossed paths and got married in May 1997. Simone Johnson, better known as Ava Raine in NXT, was born to them in 2001. Nevertheless, they were only married for a short time after she was born.
While the former couple was going through their breakup, Dwayne Johnson met singer-songwriter Lauren Hashian in 2006 at a kickoff party in Boston for one of his movies, The Game Plan. The WWE star even stated that he was instantly smitten by his wife, who was going through a breakup herself at the time.
“Within 30 seconds, I thought, ‘Wow, this girl’s stunning.’ At the time, I was going through my breakup with Dany, and she was just coming off a big breakup too. Ironically, when you’re not looking for something, the power of the universe kind of takes over,”
The divorce between Johnson and Garcia was announced in June 2007 and was finalized in May 2008, but the two remained close and are even business partners. Some of their most notable businesses today are the Seven Bucks Production company and XFL.
Meanwhile, Lauren and Dwayne began dating around the same time the divorce was announced. In 2015, the first daughter of the couple was born, Jasmine. In 2018, their second daughter, Tiana, was born. Johnson and Hashian got married in August 2019.
Why it took a while before Lauren Hashian became Dwayne Johnson’s wife
The Black Adam actor divorced before marrying Hashian, as was already revealed. It turns out that this was a reason for his reluctance to marry the artist.
The Rock admitted in an interview that, despite not having been wed yet, he has always referred to Lauren as his wife. However, he was reluctant to be married again after his divorce. Thankfully, Hashian was understanding, and the two eventually wed in Hawaii.
It’s nice to see Dwayne Johnson and Lauren Hashian supporting each other not just in regards to their family, but also in their various projects in both music and movies.
