WWE legend Hulk Hogan passed away on July 24, and Brooke Hogan, the singer, spoke out about their complex bond, including their estrangement amid his health struggles in his final years. Brooke explained that they never had a “big fight,” but rather a series of private phone calls. She encouraged the wrestling star, Terry Bollea, to take care of himself after accompanying him to almost 25 surgeries, which he later decided he no longer wanted her present for.
Brooke shared that her father and she had respectful disagreements that took an emotional toll, which, coupled with her high-risk pregnancy, led her to step away from her relationship with Hulk. She acknowledged that her father knew she would run through a burning building for him and that he knew how deeply, hard, and purely she loved him.
Brooke’s mom Linda Hogan alleged that her daughter had a huge fight with Terry, but Brooke responded that her heart hurts every day over their estrangement and that she is doing the work to break the chain. She hopes everyone can give her the chance to enjoy what’s important, her children, and her life, without injecting any more poison into it.
