Reflecting on his party days he recalls:

“When I was a young man in Hollywood, drugs, alcohol and partying were everywhere and it was hard to escape. It doesn’t become a problem immediately, it takes time, and it led to some poor choices.”

He accredits giving up drugs and embracing spirituality as the key to helping him turn his life around.

Leaving his "Miami Vice," playboy days behind, Johnson is now a fully involved family man. Recently, he took his family for a culturally filled vacation to Marrakesh, Morocco.
