Rocky – who died in 2020 – had two children named Curtis and Wanda with his first wife Una Sparks.
He would go on to marry Ata Maivia, after Dwayne was born to the pair in May 1972.
But it was revealed by Sports Illustrated that Rocky had a number of children outside of his marriages.

Complete strangers Lisa Purves, Paula Parsons, Trevor Edwards, Adrian Bowles and Aaron Fowler were all proven through DNA testing to be children of the former wrestler.
And with that, they can add WWE legend The Rock as their half-brother.
All five had previously learned the proposed identity of their father, but not had it confirmed.
Trevor and Aaron both bear a striking resemblance to Rocky – and the former says he’s known for a decade he was the son of the Hall of Famer.
He told SI: “I kept [this all] to myself for almost 10 years.
“And when I reached out, it wasn’t to Dwayne. I just wanted to meet my father.”
In 2017, he tracked down Ricky Johnson, who agreed to a DNA test which confirmed Ricky as his uncle.
While Adrian was also aware of his parentage having received a call call from Johnson, who died of a heart attack two years ago.

Adrian explained: “The phone rang and I heard, ʻAdrian?’
“And I said, ʻYes.’ And he said, ʻYou know who this is?’ I did, instantly. And I’d never heard from the man before.
“It was a good conversation. A little gratifying, I suppose – but a little late. It kind of stirred things up inside.”
While filmmaker Lisa, 53, first reached out to Rocky when she was just 18.
She is currently making a documentary about the five strangers’ tough journey to find each other.
And she believes there could be more of Rocky’s children out there to find and reunite with family.
She said: “I’m still searching [for others]”
“Dwayne doesn’t owe us anything.”
While Adrian added: “Dwayne has nothing to do with the decisions that his dad made; he doesn’t even know who we are.”
Wrestling star Dwayne rose to fame in WWE during the 2000s and has since carved out a lucrative career in Hollywood.
He is one of the world’s most recognizable stars and recently surprised his cousin with a luxury new house in a heartwarming gesture.
