Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson announced on Instagram that he is buying a home for his father, WWE Hal of Famer Rocky Johnson.
In a video posted Friday, The Rock said he recently told his dad he wants to buy him a new home. His father was so touched by the gesture that he was practically speechless.
“My dad’s an old-school tough guy,” The Rock explained. ‘What the hell are you nervous about?’ And he said, ‘Well,’ he was searching for words. ‘No one ever called to tell me they were gonna buy me a house before and the fact that it’s you, it’s my son, I’m so proud of you and I love you so much.”
“I never heard my dad talk like that. It felt good to me and it felt good to my heart,” he emotionally said. “You know, my dad used to beat my a**. Tough love, and I hated it back then, but I’m so grateful for it now. It just felt good to kind of give back to the ones who raised you. So, love you too, Pop.”
