Wayne Gretzky’s daughter took a toll on internet dating

Over a decade ago, Paulina Gretzky appeared in an interview with Complex, where she profoundly chatted about every nook and cranny of her personal and professional fronts. At one point, the host curiously asked Paulina about her dating life and her take on meeting people online. On this, Paulina said, “I can’t meet people on the Internet. It’s just not real. I can’t connect”.

Moreover, the actress shared her views on reaching out to celebrities on social media. “The only reason I would actually respond to a celebrity more so than someone that I didn’t know, is because I know who’s behind the screen”, added Paulina.
