Little Pebble Alert! Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is Going to be a Dad Again

Congratulations are in order for The Rock and his partner of nine years - they're expecting a tiny stone! It'll be a chip off the old block! IF YOU SMEEEEELLLLLLALALALA, WHAT THE ROCK, IS COOKIN'? We'll stop now. 

Johnson, who already has a 14-year-old daughter, Simone, courtesy of ex wife Dany Garcia, is said to be "so excited!" at the prospect of becoming a dad again. He's been busy honing his fatherly instincts by rescuing one of his newly adopted puppies from his pool earlier this month.

Speaking about his relationship with Lauren, 43-year-old Johnson recently told Esquire: "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 isn't mentioned. 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. You gotta get the better half in there. With all the cool s--t and success that I've been lucky enough to get? That doesn't happen unless the home life is solid."

And THAT's why we respect The Rock.
