Paulina Gretzky hints at Dustin Johnson drama with her return to Instagram
Paulina Gretzky returned to social media Wednesday, nearly two weeks after scrubbing fiancé Dustin Johnson from her Instagram page.
Perhaps in a nod to their relationship drama, Wayne Gretzky’s daughter posted an Instagram story from bed listening to Dustin Lynch’s song, “I’d Be Jealous Too.” She captioned it, “Mood.” The country song includes the lyric, “I’d be jealous too, if she was with you.”
Reports swirled that the pro golfer’s wandering eye could be to blame for the pair’s rift. Tabloids alleged that California socialite and golf enthusiast Yassie Safai was at the center of couple’s issues, something she denied.
“I am sure he is a great person, but we do not have a close friendship. I have never met Paulina Gretzky and do not know the Gretzky family, but again, I am sure they are great people,” Safai said.
In a tweet last week, Johnson acknowledged that his relationship with Gretzky has “its ups and downs” and that they were working through things as a family.
Every relationship goes through its ups and downs, but most importantly, we love each other very much and are committed to being a family. Thank you for your love and support.

Gretzky and Johnson met in 2009 through her parents, although they didn’t go on their first date until 2012. They got engaged the following year, but their relationship was plagued with drama early on.
In 2014, Gretzky stood by Johnson when he entered rehab, taking a leave of absence from the PGA Tour. Rumors surfaced around this time of Johnson’s infidelity, as well as a report claiming he was suspended from the tour after testing positive for cocaine, something Johnson later denied.
“I did not have a [cocaine] problem,” he told ESPN in 2015. “It’s just something I’m not going to get into. I have issues. But that’s not the issue.”
He attributed his problem to alcohol. “[I] would drink and drink to excess,” he said, adding that “the change I made is, I just don’t do that anymore.”
The pair persevered and went on to have two sons, Tatum, 3, and River, 1. As for their wedding plans, it’s safe to say those are probably up in the air. Gretzky has yet to add any photos of Johnson back on her Instagram, though she’s still a fixture on his social media accounts.
