Since they began dating in 2007, the pair has led a happy life. Since then, they have welcomed two daughters, Tia Giana, 4, and Jasmine, 7, whom he refers to as his “two little tornadoes,” and they (finally!) got married in August 2019.
Johnson and his ex-wife Dany Garcia, whom he was wed to from 1997 to 2007, also have a daughter together, Simone Alexandra, who is 21 years old. Garcia and Johnson have remained close friends and business partners even after their divorce. She is a founding member of Johnson’s Seven Bucks Productions, which pays homage to the sum of money Johnson had on hand when he was let go from the Canadian Football League (CFL) in 1995.
Despite reigning supreme as a World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) professional wrestler known to the world simply as The Rock, Johnson’s career in Hollywood didn’t exactly take off at the same rate of speed. There were some false starts along the way, as Hollywood tried (and failed) to get him to conform to its so-called standards.
He was introduced to audiences in 2001’s The Mummy Returns and he landed his first lead role the following year with The Scorpion King. In 2006, he filmed the Disney comedy The Game Plan. That film — like the aforementioned films — would also earn mixed reviews, with The Game Plan earning a woeful 29 percent “Tomatometer” on Rotten Tomatoes.
But by then, the reviews mattered little, and not just because The Game Plan would ultimately earn nearly $200 million at the box office, but because it was at that point when he started dating Hashian.
It wasn’t long after that Johnson, slowly but surely, began wielding his power over Hollywood, and it was Hashian who stuck by his side when he was plugging away to make that happen.

The precise circumstances of how they met remain unclear, but according to multiple reports, Johnson and Hashian met in 2006 while filming The Game Plan.
They started dating in 2007 It’s not known when exactly they started dating but multiple reports claim their relationship started in 2007, the same year Johnson split from Garcia. It wouldn’t be long before Hashian and Johnson moved in together.
According to a 2015 cover story for Esquire, Johnson revealed that he had been living with his “longtime girlfriend, Lauren Hashian, going on, like, eight, nine years now.” Johnson said he and the singer-songwriter “spend a lot of time with my daughter in Florida, Simone.” At that point, Johnson explained why it was important for him to bring up Hashian in the interview after he was asked if there was anything else he wanted to get off his chest.
“We do these stories and we talk so much about the business end, the success end, but then Lauren isn’t mentioned and my daughter isn’t mentioned,” he said. “I always like making sure we find the balance and my home life is in there and Lauren Hashian is in there and my daughter is in there.”
When told he’s a wise man for mentioning the women in his life, Johnson responded, “You gotta get the better half in there. With all the cool s**t and success that I’ve been lucky enough to get? That doesn’t happen unless the home life is solid.”
‘I’m one lucky SOB’
In an interview with People on Valentine’s Day 2012, Johnson opened up about finding love for the second time in his life.
“I was so fortunate to have fallen in love once,” Johnson said. “To fall in love again? That’s a hard thing to do twice in the position I’m in. I’m one lucky son of a b**ch.”
On March 28, 2013, Johnson and Hashian arrived at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood for the Los Angeles premiere of G.I. Joe: Retaliation.
Johnson didn’t wear a tie and wore a black suit with a white dress shirt and white pocket square. Hashian flashed a heart-melting smile and looked stunning in a black outfit while holding a black handbag.
Johnson and Hashian welcome Jasmine in 2015
The couple welcomed Jasmine Johnson on Dec. 16, 2015. Just one month prior, Johnson confirmed the impending birth of their daughter in an adorable Instagram post last month.
“I was raised by and live with amazing and strong women, so the universe felt we needed one more… IT’S A BABY GIRL!!!” he captioned the sunny selfie, showing off huge grins with his ladylove while keeping a firm grip on her belly.
In an interview that would later air on Oprah’s Master Class, Johnson gushed about Hashian.
“I wake up every day so grateful and so thankful that you have someone like [her]. Someone who you can walk through the world with,” Johnson said.
Hashian reacts to Johnson’s ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ title
The San Andreas star won the title in 2016, and he told People that Hashian was “going to freak” about the honor.
“The good thing is she already thinks I’m the Sexiest Man Alive,” he told the magazine. “She’s going to yell loudly, she’s going to scream.”
In that same interview, Johnson offered one of the main ingredients that makes the relationship thrive.
“First of all, she teases me about everything. Everything,” he said. “Nothing is off limits in our house. And it’s the beauty of it. And I tease her with everything.”
Wedding plans on hold …
Weeks before Hashian gave birth to their second child together, Johnson revealed to ET why he wasn’t in a rush to head down the aisle with his pregnant girlfriend. He told ET that the couple was “going to get married in the spring and we got pregnant.”
The issue?
“Lauren felt like, well, you know, mama [doesn’t want] to take pictures being pregnant in a wedding dress, so we’re just going to wait and not quite sure when, but I know it’s going to happen,” he added.
While Johnson in prior interviews had referred to Hashian as his wife, he assured fans they did not secretly tie the knot.
“I just refer to her as my wife all the time. So a lot of people are like, ‘Oh, did you get married?'” he explained to ET. “I’m like, ‘No. Easy. Don’t rush big daddy.'”
