Ata Johnson’s Biography
According to the reports, Ata was adopted by Peter and Lia Maivia, who raised her.
Peter Maivia, during his lifetime, was a famed Samoan-American professional wrestler and promoter. His wife, Lia Maivia, also worked as a wrestler promoter.
Ata has two brothers named Toa Maivia and Peter Maivia Jr.
Following the death of their father in 1982, Peter Maivia Jr. became a wrestler.
Personal life
Ata got married to Rocky Johnson, a professional wrestler, in 1970.
The reports disclosed they met through a wrestling match where Ata’s brother, Peter Maivia Jr., was paired with Rocky to fight a tag team match.
Her father, Peter, however, didn’t agree to their relationship because he knew how busy the schedule of wrestlers is.
She turned deaf ears to her father’s word and went on to marry Rocky Johnson.
Before meeting Ata, Rocky had been married to Una in 1962 but divorced in 1968. Their union was blessed with two children, Curtis and Wanda.
Ata had only one child for Rocky named Dwayne Douglas Johnson, born on May 2, 1972, in Hayward, California, USA.
They, however, went their separate ways in 2003, but there was no detail on why they divorced.
Rocky Johnson would go ahead to remarry for the third time in 2004 to Dana Martin. Ata, on the other hand, refused to remarry and has focused on her son and her grandchildren.
In 1991, Rocky Johnson retired from professional wrestling; he, however, trains his son, The Rock, who would go ahead to dominate the industry and become one of the best wrestlers of all time.
In January 2020, Rocky died at 75.
Unlike her son, Ata Johnson keeps a very private life, and most of her photos on the internet were shared by her son.
