In an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in July 2022, Johnson said that even though his WWE career was “a different lifetime,” his youngest daughters, Jasmine and Tiana, get a kick out of seeing old footage of their dad in the ring. “They love jumping off couches,” he said of the cuties inheriting his adventurous and active style. Still, they’re girly girls at heart: “For my little daughters … their favorite thing is putting makeup on me.” To that, Johnson said he challenges, “Bring it on.”
Read on for everything we know about Simone, Jasmine, and Tiana, and what their superstar dad has said about them.
1Simone Johnson
Simone, born on Aug. 14, 2001, is Johnson’s eldest daughter, whom he shares with ex-wife and production partner Dany Garcia. Simone is signed to IMG Models and was named the first-ever Golden Globe Ambassador for the 2018 Golden Globe Awards.
Back in 2020, Simone signed with the WWE, following in her dad’s footsteps. And in 2022, she announced that her in-ring name would be Ava Raine, making it clear that despite her family’s professional wrestling legacy, she has her own path. She tweeted in May 2022, “I probably sound like a broken record & hopefully this is the last I’ll mention this but I don’t understand why people being portrayed as separate individuals from their family name is such a heated topic. A name doesn’t discredit any prior accomplishments from any family.”
Simone made her NXT live debut in July 2022 in Orlando, Florida. Appearing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” that same month, Johnson said he was “very proud” of Simone and that her debut was “so good.”
2Jasmine Johnson
Johnson welcomed his first child with wife Lauren Hashian on Dec. 16, 2015. Jasmine made her red carpet debut at a young age, and also clearly has her dad wrapped around her finger.
In posts on social media, Johnson has shared snippets of his middle child’s personality. He wrote back on her birthday in 2021 that Jasmine is “strong, sweet, independent, happy, creative, confident and most importantly loving and kind.” He also teased that he and Hashian’s baby girl has a “wicked” sense of humor — something the actor teased he thinks she got from him.
3Tiana Johnson
On April 17, 2018, Johnson and Hashian welcomed their second child together, Tiana. From an early age, she was already an expert at melting hearts, just like her dad.
Johnson has called Tiana his “little tornado” full of “love” and “kindness,” and revealed in 2022 that despite being a fan of his movie “Moana,” she “refuses” to believe that he’s the voice behind animated character Maui. “She always says, ‘Daddy, you’re not Maui, you’re The Rock,’” he wrote on Instagram. It’s a good thing that the actor has a sense of humor!
