Paulina Gretzky and Dustin Johnson have had a long, fairytale relationship and then a wedding in 2022. Their bond has led to the birth of their two wonderful children, Tatum Gretzky Johnson and River Jones Johnson. This has truly been a transformative process for the duo. But what makes the Johnsons so special is their candid attitude about parenthood.

In a recent interview, Dustin Johnson took the opportunity to share a glimpse into his life as a father. His interesting account has fans raving about the family man that their favorite golfer is. However, out of the interaction, one thing that truly stood out about Dustin’s stint as a parent was his ability to change diapers!

Johnson was asked what fatherhood has been like for him, and if he has had the opportunity to change diapers yet. To which, he replied, “Yeah I’ve done everything. When you have kids, it’s like a lot of things you thought were really gross, aren’t gross anymore, especially if its coming from your kids.”

Dustin explained how he has done almost everything in his eight years of being a parent. His relatable window into parenthood made him receive a lot of love from his fans online. He emphasized that what would seem gross to many doesn’t seem as gross to parents when it comes from their own children. Such is the bond between a parent and child. Dustin Johnson, however, was not alone in his candid account of parenthood. A few months ago, his wife Paulina Gretzky had also shared a glimpse into her journey as a mother.
