NHL legend Wayne Gretzky’s eldest daughter, Paulina Gretzky, celebrated her 36th birthday with a glamorous party surrounded by close family and friends on Tuesday. Paulina’s father Wayne, mother Janet, husband Dustin Johnson and brother-in-law Austin Johnson were among those present at the family gathering.

On Thursday, Paulina shared a carousel of pictures on her Instagram featuring special moments from her birthday bash. One of the images showed Paulina and Dustin Johnson posing on a pink couch with striped cushions, beside a wall of seashells and coastal decorations.

Paulina’s birthday cake was shaped like an apple with green frosting and a green olive on top.

“Tini bit older”, read the message on top of the cake and the caption of her post.

Another photo showed Paulina sitting at the dinner table with her parents, with Dustin Johnson standing behind them. One snap showed Wayne Gretzky, Trevor, Ty Gretzky, Austin Johnson and Dustin Johnson posing together in evening suits. The whole party of guests also posed together in front of a clock-themed decorated wall.

Dustin Johnson shared Paulina’s post on his Instagram stories and wished her a happy birthday.

He also shared a heartfelt message along with similar pictures from the evening.

“Happy Birthday to the most amazing wife and mom. We love you so much @paulinagretzky!”

Paulina and Dustin Johnson hosted Wayne Gretzky and family for Thanksgiving

In November, Dustin Johnson and Paulina Gretzky hosted a Thanksgiving party at their Florida mansion that brought together three generations of the Gretzky family.

Paulina shared a glimpse of the gathering on her Instagram stories. The dining room was beautifully set with a dark wooden table covered by a red and black plaid runner. The tables featured golden charger plates, pale blue dinner plates, white napkins with antler-shaped rings, and glass hurricanes with lit candles.

A tall Christmas tree with colorful ornaments added to the holiday spirit, while the living area had black chairs, a cowhide rug and framed family photos. The space also included a bar area with a drink menu for signature cocktails.

Her brother Ty Gretzky attended with his wife, Sara, and their two daughters, Sicily and Vienna. Sara shared images of her children on the lawn and enjoying Thanksgiving meals of turkey, macaroni and pasta.

Paulina also posted group photos of the family, with her brother Tristan seen carrying his niece Sicily. Sara shared an adorable picture of her daughters by the Christmas tree and reposted the family group photo.
