Remember when Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson hopped on Instagram in 2020, made a NSFW joke about having sex with his wife ( 🙃 “I showed her why they call me The Rock” 🙃), and sent you spiraling in several thousand directions? Me neither due to blocking it out until right now, but this just in: Turns out, The Rock and Lauren Hashian are just as cute as they are horny.

These two tend to fly pretty under the radar, but they have been together forever and cannot stop gushing about each other to the point where a comprehensive timeline is clearly overdue, especially for those of us who love to live vicariously through someone else’s relationship (me, always).

Circa 2006

The Rock starts filming The Game Plan and randomly meets Lauren.

Lucky for us, he spoke about their first interaction to WSJ Magazine, saying, “Within 30 seconds, I thought, Wow, this girl’s stunning. At the time, I was going through my breakup with Dany [Garcia, The Rock’s ex-wife], 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.”

June 1, 2007

The Rock and Dany Garcia announce they’re amicably splitting after 17 years and give a joint statement to People:

“While certain aspects of our relationship have changed, we are both vitally important to each other’s lives. We will continue to advance and manage our business interests, our philanthropic efforts and most importantly the raising of our child together, as a loving team. We’ve been fortunate enough to spend the last 17 years together as a couple and look forward to spending the rest our lives together as best friends and business partners.”

May 30, 2008

These two ^^ finalize their divorce and decide to share custody of their daughter Simone Alexandra Garcia Johnson. The Rock agrees to $22,454 per month in child support, according to E! News.

February 13, 2012

Flash-forward a few very low-key and private years, and The Rock tells People, “I was so fortunate to have fallen in love once. 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 bitch.”

When asked if there’s anything he wants to get off his chest during an interview with Esquire, The Rock has THIS to say:

“Yeah. I’ve lived with my longtime girlfriend, Lauren Hashian, going on, like, eight, nine years now. She’s a singer-songwriter. We spend a lot of time with my daughter in Florida, Simone, who’s 13. 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. 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.”

Lauren tells Vydia how much her husband inspires her—especially in her songwriting.

“Honestly, if I impress him with a track then I feel accomplished, it’s true! He is an example of how anything you can imagine or dream up, you can do because he lives that way. So when you see that every day, it fuels you & lifts you up too. Also, being in love is a very inspiring thing—ALL of our experiences, from the good to the fun to the hot to even the not so good, provide great inspiration to write from.”

Lauren speaks to Billboard about her new EP, saying her husband is her biggest supporter. “Most of the time when I’m making music, he is my the very first person who hears anything, so he’s heard the good, the bad, the ugly. I know a lot of people look up to him, but even I look up to him, and I trust his judgment and his instincts and his experiences. So for me, I’m so grateful that I have somebody like him, who’s also been in the business for so long, to give me his feedback and also work together.”
