Dwayne Johnson just pulled off another epic surprise for his mom.
The actor, who is known for treating his family and friends to extravagant gifts, shared videos over the weekend surprising his mother Ata with a new house. In his posts, he also explained why treating his mom is so special to him.
"When I was a little boy, I hated when my mom would cry ~ these days, I’ll happily take her tears of joy," he wrote alongside a video of Ata arriving at the home.
"I’ve been lucky enough to have bought her a few homes over the years, but this one is special as she’s told me over and over these past few years, 'After a lifetime of traveling, I want this home to be my last. Thats my dream,'" he continued. "Mom, there’s no greater feeling than to make you happy ~ welcome home 🏠❤️🌺"
Johnson said that he worked with his design team for eight weeks to prepare the house for his mother.
Johnson continued, "I always say, if you got a good mom then you got a shot at becoming a good, caring human being. Let’s all give our mamas a big grateful squeeze this weekend and make ‘em happy."
He also shared footage of his mother walking into her new family room, which he said he personalized with her vintage ukuleles and some family photos. "I was able to unearth pictures of our ancestors that she hasn’t seen since she was a child growing up in Samoa," he wrote alongside the video. "She misses her mom and dad. I miss them too."
Ata Johnson was moved to tears by the thoughtful decor.
His final video was a clip of his mother walking into her "Smackdown Room," along with an explanation on why his mom has a room devoted to him in her houses.
"In her homes she always has her 'Smackdown Room' where she keeps the coolest Rock/DJ memorabilia but over the years they’ve become insanely crowded - so for her new home, I had these cool built ins made and just added only a few memorabilia items - Posters, University of Miami game balls, movie awards, championship titles etc.," he explained.
"This is her favorite room to bring guests to and it’s my least favorite 😂🙋🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ because the last thing I want to do is stand in a DJ Shrine while people look around as my mom takes them thru at all the stuff I’ve done," he added. "No thanks 🙅🏽♂️😂"
He added that the rooms his mom has devoted to his accomplishments exude "such positive energy and beautiful mana" and serve as "a good reminder for me to never forget where I came and always be grateful for grind."
In his posts, the former WWE star also acknowledged how lucky he is to be able to treat his mother to surprises like this. "Thank you God for blessing me with a little bit of work ethic to make stuff like this happen," he wrote.
