A few years ago, Dwayne Johnson shared about buying a house for his father, Rocky Johnson. He shared the news through an Instagram post in which The Rock was happy to hear his father was glad about this gesture.

‘The Great One’ said, “He couldn’t believe it, he was speechless So he just called now, it’s a big weekend. He’s gonna go and look at properties. He’s a Florida boy so he’s gonna look up to north Florida. And he goes, ‘I’m so excited, and I’m also so nervous. My dad’s an old-school tough guy, I said, ‘What the hell you nervous about?”

The Rock added, ‘He said, ‘Well, no one,’ he was searching for words, and he’s like, ‘no one ever called to tell me they were going to 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,”
