They tied the knot on April 23, 2022 in Tennessee. The couple has two sons together: Tatum, who was born on January 19, 2015, and River Jones, who was born on June 12, 2017.

Last year Paulina spoke with ART magazine on how her parents influenced her relationship with Johnson: “The way he [Wayne] “Loving my mother and respecting her is a big part of everything and not just for me but for all of us children,” Paulina told Canadian lifestyle magazine. “It’s the same way my dad treats Dustin and how he treats all of his grandchildren. Both of my parents set a great example and it’s all about being thoughtful and treating each other kindly.”

Ty Gretzky, 34

The eldest Gretzky son Ty was born on July 9, 1990 and has kept a relatively low profile since then compared to his siblings. But like his father, ice hockey became a big part of his life – and the father-son duo became friends because of it.

“He was my hockey guy. He loves hockey,” Wayne shared on a 2021 episode of “The Steam Room” podcast. “We host hockey camps all over North America. He’s one of my best friends and I love it.”

In 2014, they founded the Gretzky Hockey School, which trains young athletes based on “the same fundamentals and habits that Grandpa Walter Wayne taught and growing children,” according to the website.

Trevor Gretzky, 31

Wayne and Jones Gretzky had their second son, Trevor, on September 14, 1992. Like his siblings, he discovered a love for sports and eventually signed with the Chicago Cubs in 2011, where he played for both the minor league baseball team and the Los Angeles Angels.

Back then, having a professional athlete as a father certainly helped his own career. In 2015, Trevor explained to the Associated Press that his father “knows a lot about baseball” and taught him “pretty much everything I know about the game.”

In 2016, Trevor decided to retire from the sports world and move into show business instead. The Los Angeles-based actor and producer has worked on films such as “Mile 22,” “Apex” and “American Siege.”

Trevor confirmed his engagement to his now-wife Ashley in 2023. In April of the same year, he shared a video of his proposal on Instagram, in which he got down on one knee in the presence of both families. The couple welcomed their daughter Phoenix Shiloh on July 28 that same year.

Wayne retired on April 18, 1999, and less than a year later, on August 2, 2000, he and Jones Gretzky welcomed their third son, Tristan. While his siblings were involved in sports such as hockey and baseball, Tristan chose to become a golfer, playing on the Pepperdine University men’s team while attending school. At the time, he said, “My goal in life is to be on the PGA Tour,” and he was looking forward to spending the next few years with the other players and coaches at the school.

However, Tristan eventually transferred to New York University, where he chose the school because the city offers “unlimited opportunities while also providing the opportunity to play in the sport I love with an amazing golf coach leading the team.” to take part in competitions”.

Tristan also began to act a little like his mother and older brother Trevor. He starred in the 2006 film Two Tickets to Paradise alongside How I Met Your Mother actress Ashley Williams and General Hospital actor Ryan Paevey.

Emma, ​​the youngest of the Gretzky siblings, was born on March 28, 2003. She is currently studying at Southern Methodist University (SMU), where she is part of the school’s tennis team.

“If you have fun, work hard and keep developing, good things can happen,” he added. “For us as parents, our goal is to love Emma and continue to work hard at it because it is a big commitment. Tennis consists of three, four, five hours of cardio training a day. It’s a little different and unique.”

Emma posts regularly on Instagram, where she has more than 24,000 followers. She has also been in a relationship with SMU football player Stone Eby for more than a year. Like her family, she also dabbled in acting, starring in the 2013 thriller Palo Alto with James Franco and Emma Roberts.
