Domestic Bliss
Although Johnson doesn’t often speak about the details of his relationship with Hashian, in 2015 he toldEsquirethat the pair had been living together for “like,eight, nine years now.”
“We do these stories and we talk so much about the business end, the success end, but then Lauren isn’t mentioned and my daughter [Simone] isn’t mentioned” he added. “I always like making sure we find the balance and my home life is in there and Lauren Hashian is in there and my daughter is in there.”
Welcoming Their First Child
A week before Christmas in 2015, the couple welcomed their first child together — daughter Jasmine.
“Christmas came early! Within minutes of being born she was laying on daddy’s chest. And being a grateful man takes on a whole new meaning,” Johnson wrote alongside a picture of his adorable newborn resting on his chest.
He also took the time to celebrate the “strength and beauty” of his girlfriend.
“I was right there during labor, helping her breathe, every highly intense contraction, every second of pain, right there watching the actual birth, cutting the cord and wiping the tears. Incredible,” he said, adding that “as men, it’s a miracle we should witness because it’ll give you a whole new respect for the strength and beauty of a woman).”
The Secret to Their Lasting Love
After being crowned as PEOPLE’sSexiest Man Alivein 2016, Johnson gushed over the pair’s love for each other, explaining that they have “the greatest relationship” because they know how to make each other laugh.
“First of all, she teases me about everything. Everything,” he told PEOPLE. “Nothing is off limits in our house. And it’s the beauty of it. And I tease her with everything.”
He also added that Hashian wasn’t going to be surprised when he told her the good news because “she already thinks I’m the Sexiest Man Alive.”
Johnson also marveled over how Hashian had transformed as a new mom.
“Watching Lauren be a mom has been one of the most enlightening things I’ve ever seen,” he said. “You see as a man, you see your lady, your partner, your woman, your one, you see them in a certain light and then when they become Mom, it’s a whole other perspective that if you open your eyes wide enough, it’s like a kaleidoscope. You click it a couple of times and it just changes everything.”
