The Rock is Officially Divorced

Saturday May 31, 2008
After being married for 11 years, the marriage of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Dani Garcia is over. The judge has granted the couple shared parental responsibility of their seven year-old daughter, Simone Alexandra Garcia Johnson.

Luckily for the Rock, his ex-wife is a successful financial adviser that didn't ask for any alimony payments. I'm willing to bet that Hulk Hogan will not be so lucky (nor will that divorce be settled as quietly as this one was). As far as their joint assets go, they have decided to remain equal equity owners in their assets with equal voting power. Each partner gets to keep their personal property.

However, the Rock will have to pay out some money for the raising of his daughter. Both parents will have to pay $5,000 monthly towards a trust fund for their child. That fund will be for the education, medical expenses, and other living expenses associated with raising the child. In addition, the Rock will pay $22,454 a month in child support.

The divorce settlement is 60 pages long. The following are some of the highlights from the settlement:


  • The couple has eight cars. The fanciest is a 2008 Bentley titled in the Rock's name.
  • The Rock will be having a gross income of $8,000,000 this year.
  • After child support payments are included, the 2008 net monthly income for the Rock will be over $400,000 and for Dani it will be over $70,000.
