- Dustin Johnson and his fiance Paulina Gretzky met through Gretzky's parents in 2009.
- The golf star and the pop singer-turned-model didn't go on their first date, however, until 2012.
- They've been together ever since, and now have two children.
Dustin Johnson wooed the entire Gretzky clan long before he took his future fiance Paulina Gretzky on their first date.
In 2009, the pro golfer met Paulina's mother Janet — the wife of legendary hockey player Wayne Gretzky— at the Hero World Challenge golf tournament. Afterwards, the Gretzkys had Johnson over for dinner.
GOLF reported that Johnson and Gretzky had "undeniable chemistry" from the get-go, but the timing was off. Both were already in relationships with other people.
"We became good friends," Gretzky told GOLF. "Actually, my whole family became friends with Dustin — my brothers and parents saw him a lot more than I did."
But the story didn't end there.
Here's a look inside the relationship between golf's reformed "bad boy" and the hockey heiress:
