The Rock's First Daughter's Mother: What You Don't Know

Garcia and The Rock made the decision early on to keep daughter Simone Garcia Johnson out of the limelight. While her dad was making headlines and conquering Hollywood, Garcia Johnson would live with her mom on the other side of the country near Fort Lauderdale, away from the madness. Garcia told the Hollywood Reporter, "She needed to be sheltered from an environment where there's paparazzi, where people are interested in what she was wearing at a very young age." You can't blame them. Celeb kids often get scrutinized by tabloids and social media, despite not having signed up for the added attention like their famous parents.

As she gets older, Garcia Johnson has been given more freedom to put herself out there (she was the Golden Globes Ambassador during the 2018 Golden Globes ceremony and is active on Instagram, where she has over 300,000 followers), mostly because Garcia feels she has earned it. She told the Hollywood Reporter her daughter is now "so well-baked into who she is that I feel confident letting her navigate the world."
