Hulk Hogan’s Daughter Details Allegations Of Verbal And Physical Abuse

Hulk Hogan’s personal life is back under the spotlight.

On March 27, a tearful Linda Hogan posted an emotional video on social media where she hit out at her former husband Hulk Hogan for ruining her life.

In the video, she branded Hogan a lair and a sex addict, while claiming his issues with their daughter Brooke destroyed her own relationship with their youngest child. Brooke, now 36, has moved to distance herself from her parents in recent years.

Linda and Hulk Hogan married in 1983 and their divorce was finalised in July 2009.

Hulk Hogan has since married Sky Daily after his second marriage to Jennifer McDaniel ended in 2022.

Brooke On Her Decision to Walk Away From Hulk Hogan

In response to the video posted by her mother, Brooke shared a lengthy statement on Instagram where she outlined her side of the story. The reality TV star explained why she’s chosen to distance herself from her parents, and alleged she’s been physically, mentally, and verbally abused since childhood.

What I’m about to say is not pointed at either person. And is in no particular order when it comes to who did what. It is my own personal truth, and you can do your own math.

I have been EXTREMELY verbally and mentally abused since childhood. Sadly, it would frequently turn physical. And sometimes it’s not by the person you would assume, abuse comes in all shapes and sizes.

Up until adulthood, I’ve received berating and Vile text messages, verbal, public reamings with unbelievably hurtful words said to me that cannot be forgotten. I’ve been ASKED to defend poor behavior to the public and have done so out of love. Only to find I was misinformed, manipulated, and lied to.

Still to this day I face constant ridicule for those poor decisions of others. I’ve watched others benefit financially off my suffering and embarrassment caused by their selfish behavior. While it caused my life to crumble, I continued to stay strong and silent.

Brooke added that her family is “very skilled at war,” and said she’d tried to see the good in them only for them to “pull me into the darkness.” She went on to say that she hopes one day her family sees the damage they’ve done and understands her decision.

As much as I not only understand and have empathy for their own struggles, I absolutely LOVE them with every fiber of my being-which deep down I think they know. My heart hurts every day, and not a day passes it does not affect me. Inside of me, there is a little girl who desperately wants and needs her Mom and Dad.

No one wants this, to feel so much pain and not have parents. But their behavior became more painful than their absence.

I hope one day they realize, appreciate, and respect why l’ve chosen to remain as quiet as possible. Not exposing specific names, and details of certain experiences to still try to protect them.

It is not something easy to handle-feeling like you’re on an island. Many don’t know that years ago I waited tables to build my own business, with zero financial help from others. But I have worked hard my whole life.

Cycles must be broken, I feel God has given me the strength and duty to do so. At this point, my husband, my children, and relationship with God is my priority. There have been more than enough chances and reprieve given. It has to stop, it ends now.

At the time of publication, Hulk Hogan is yet to publicly address the comments from Linda and Brooke.
