“Piss-Poor Job of Cultivating Relationships”: Dwayne Johnson Once Shared His Harsh Struggles After Failing First Marriage

A happy family man now, Dwayne Johnson has had his share of struggles with family and relationships. Now a father of three daughters, DJ was previously married to his current business partner, Dany Garcia. The couple tied the knot in 1997 but then got divorced in 2008.

Johnson met Lauren Hashian in 2006 and reportedly started dating a year later. However, the two walked down the aisle after several years in 2019. With Garcia, Johnson has one daughter, Simone Johnson, while with Hashian, he has two young daughters.

Back in 2016, The Rock sat down for an interview with WSJ magazine and discussed his divorce and marriage with Lauren Hashian. Johnson married Hashian in Hawaii in an intimate ceremony. The two are happily residing together.

In the interview, Johnson discussed how his divorce from Garcia broke him down. The divorce also made him a victim of depression, and hesitant to second marriages. He said, “I was just struggling, man. Struggling to figure out what kind of dad am I gonna be. Realizing I’d done a piss-poor job of cultivating relationships, and a lot of my friends had fallen by the wayside.” 

Johnson opened up about how everything at that time was in a very challenging and bad place. The Brahma Bull of WWE then claimed how Lauren Hashian came and changed his life. He said, “I wasn’t fearful of getting married again, there was just some hesitancy.” The father of three further stated how she was always patient with him and never gave him any sort of pressure.
