Asked about the highly talked about relationship, Johnson first replied with a question: "Are they happy?"

"I did it, yes. If they're happy. Well then, I take credit. 'Baywatch' and 'Jumanji'," he added, pointing out to his work with Priyanka in "Baywatch" and with Jonas in last year's "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle".
