Popsugar Celebrity Celebrity Instagrams Dwayne Johnson and His Mom Ata Pictures These Sweet Photos of Dwayne Johnson and His Mom Will Make You Want to Call Yours 20 August 2019 by Monica Sisavat Solís Image Source: Getty / Aaron Davidson There's nothing quite like a mother's love, and I'm pretty sure Dwayne Johnson can agree. The 47-year-old actor shares a one-of-a-kind bond with his mom, Ata, and they often give us glimpses of it at The Rock's movie premieres, award shows, and on social media. In fact, this past Christmas Dwayne surprised his mom with a brand-new home. "All our lives growing up we lived in little apartments all across the country. Lived like gypsies on the road from one state to another . . . since then I always made sure my mom and dad have everything they'll ever need," he explained on Instagram. "I always say, if you got a good mama, then you gotta pretty good shot at becoming a decent human being. And somehow, somewhere along the line, I became one lucky SOB to be able to make stuff like this happen." Now Dwayne may look like a total tough guy on the outside, but he's clearly just one big softie at heart. View this post on Instagram Talofa lava i Hawaii nei!

After all that, she still remains the most warmest, kind, loving and certainly toughest woman I know. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM. I love you. #Aiga A post shared by therock (@therock) on Oct 25, 2014 at 2:53pm PDT 7 / 18 View this post on Instagram #TBT Surprising my mom with a new car for Christmas. Couldn't remember what her favorite color was between white or red, so I went with white. A few weeks later she was curious as to why I chose white and not her favorite color, red? I told her I couldn't remember her favorite color so I went with white, but I would return the car and get her a new red one?! She looked at me like I had three heads and said "Are you crazy? Nooooo way, I love my white car! I'm so grateful. I was just curious." I even contemplated secretly taking her car from her garage and having it replaced with a new red one, but thought I better not and just leave well enough alone. Then as fate would have it, she was hit head on by a drunk driver - she survived. Her white car was completely totaled and she wound up getting a replacement car of the color she always wanted... Red. Funny (and gratefully) how things work out the way they're meant to. And still to this day she says that white car saved my life. #GoodOlFashionFate #IsAlwaysColorBlind A post shared by therock (@therock) on Apr 14, 2016 at 8:05pm PDT 8 / 18 Image Source: Getty / Kevin Winter 9 / 18 Image Source: Getty / Patrick Riviere 10 / 18 Image Source: Getty / Jim Spellman 11 / 18 Image Source: Getty / Aaron Davidson 12 / 18 Image Source: Getty / Kevin Winter 13 / 18 Image Source: Getty / Jason Koerner 14 / 18 Image Source: Getty / Amanda Edwards 15 / 18 Image Source: Getty / Charles Eshelman 16 / 18 View this post on Instagram Happy Mother’s Day to my day one.
