The Rock loves being surrounded by strong, badass women in his life

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson says it is “the best thing” to be surrounded by so many “strong, badass women”.

The 47-year-old actor who has daughters Simone, 17, Jasmine, three, and 15-month-old Tiana loves having “all this estrogenic energy” in his house and he hopes he can “set a standard of what a man should be” in their lives.

He told Extra: “It’s just the best thing … I have a house full of just strong, badass women. I grew up an only child. My dad was tough.

“He kicked my ass, so there was a lot of testosterone growing up. So there is this balance – having all this estrogenic energy – then also me having the opportunity to infuse father and hopefully setting a standard of what a man should be in their lives.”

The former wrestler revealed he has a new respect for women after he helped to deliver his baby.

He said: “I was encouraging her – holding her hand. And the doctor said, ‘Would you like to come down and watch and help?’ I said, ‘Yup, I’m going to come down. Watch. Help. I will say, it was the most amazing experience I’ve ever seen. I look at Lauren, and women and mothers, in a different light than I ever have before. And it was beautiful. I’m holding legs, everything. And out comes the baby. I know, right? Crazy. Cause you roll the dice, you don’t know how it’s going go to go. A lot of stuff happens.”

Dwayne announced the birth of Tiana in late April when he posted a photo of himself holding his baby with a bare chest on Instagram and admitted at the time it was “life-changing” to have been involved in her delivery.

As reported by The Sauce, The Rock is starring in the upcoming Fast and Furious spin-off, Hobbs & Shaw Film which is slated to be released on the 1st of August 2019 alongside Jason Statham and Idris Elba.
