Dwayne Johnson‘s telling his fans not to wait too long when it comes to squashing beef with parents … speaking directly to his male fans who have problems with their dads like he did.
The actor posted a black and white video to Instagram early Thursday morning … and, in it, he reveals yesterday was the five-year anniversary of his dad Rocky ‘Soulman’ Johnson‘s death.
The Rock notes he and his dad weren’t in a particularly good place when he passed … and, Dwayne says he woke up yesterday feeling weird — and realized it’s because he’d never get a chance to make things right with his pop, and it’s still bothering him.
On top of just generally having a difficult relationship, he says he and his father got into an explosive fight on Christmas Eve just three weeks before Soulman passed … and, he wasn’t ever able to tell his dad they were good.
DJ says he knows there are a lot of dudes out there who don’t have great relationships with their dads … but, he’s sure all fathers love their kids — even in the limited ways they can.
There are a whole lot more words of wisdom from The Rock in this clip, so watch it all the way through … but, sounds like he’s got a lot of regrets he wishes he could make right.
As we reported … the WWE announced Rocky Johnson’s death, and Dwayne shared his own emotional tribute at the time — writing he “grew to become a man realizing you had other deeply complicated sides that needed to be held and understood.”
Rocky was 75 when he passed … and, it sounds like Dwayne’s still reflecting on the loss.
