Johnson may be one of the most successful professional golfers out there...

... but his fiance hasn't always loved the sport. "I didn't appreciate golf as much when I was little, probably because my mom put us in tennis camps and golf camps," Gretzky told Golf Digest. "My mom has a video of me when I was really young where I'm saying, 'Daddy, don't go play golf anymore.'"

Gretzky's parents love to golf. She's become more enamored with the sport since she began dating Johnson. She even took to Instagram to showcase what Golf Digest called a "surprisingly powerful swing."

Gretzky also told Golf Digest about meeting her future partner through her parents, adding that her mother talked her up upon meeting Johnson. "I'm sure he was rolling his eyes, and so was I when my mom invited me over to meet this golfer she had just met," she said.

Gretzky claimed to have looked like a "ragamuffin" during their first meeting, and added that Johnson was a "really cute guy" and an "endearing" "gentleman."

Gretzky became a fixture at Johnson's tournaments. She even caddied for the golfer at the 2016 Masters.

Seven months after they began dating, Johnson popped the question in August of 2013.

But the couple has said they've held off on setting a date, due to their whirlwind schedules. "It'll be our special day, and we just want it to be right and to fit," Gretzky told Golf Digest.

Johnson told the New York Post that the size of the wedding doesn't matter to him "That bill is going to Wayne," he said.

Fox News reported that Wayne Gretzky has taken to mentoring Johnson — and allegedly warned him to clean up his act and stop partying.

Johnson indicated to Sports Illustrated in a 2015 interview that he has taken his potential future father-in-law's advice to heart by establishing a simpler, more family-oriented routine. The couple reportedly always ate breakfast and dinner with Gretzky's parents, who lived close by as of 2015.

And then, to wind down, Johnson and Gretzky would catch an episode or two of "Homeland," "Sons of Anarchy," or "State of Affairs."

Today, Johnson and Gretzky have two sons. They welcomed Tatum Johnson to the world on January 19, 2015, and River Jones Johnson on June 12, 2017. For their second child, the couple took to Instagram for the golf-themed gender reveal. In the post, Johnson hit a golf ball that exploded into a cloud of blue powder, signifying they were expecting another son.
