There are no holds barred when it comes to the Hogan family.
Hulk Hogan’s estranged daughter Brooke, 36, has once again fired back at her mother as the pair continue to engage in a brutal back-and-forth on social media. The latest after the wrestler’s ex-wife, Linda Hogan, accused Brooke of getting “so drunk” and “breaking her collarbone.”
The ferocious saga started on Thursday, March 27, after Linda took to Instagram to blame her famous ex for the family’s ongoing issues.
Brooke quickly responded with an Instagram post of her own, in which she blamed her mom for all the Hogan family drama.
Linda responded with a Facebook post calling her daughter a “narcissist,” at which point Brooke returned to Instagram to clarify the “truth” of the whole matter.
“First of all, it appears my mother may not have actually read what I wrote,” Brooke wrote on Friday, March 28. “She absolutely did make false claims like she had ‘never met my husband and she doesn’t even know what his name is,’ then deleted it.”
“She says she hasn’t spoken to me for a number of years,” she continued, “yet I have a picture with her and my husband together on a day we had lunch together.”
Brooke married former Washington Capitals defenseman Steven Oleksy in 2022. The couple welcomed a set of twins this past January.
“I did not ask for this, nor did I even want to make a statement, but I also couldn’t let people continue to speak for me,” the wrestler’s daughter added. “My name is continuously brought up in the constant drama of my family.”
Brooke also discussed the claims of “verbal and mental abuse” she mentioned in a prior Instagram post.
“My post did not directly accuse anyone of the behaviors mentioned,” she said. “So if she’s triggered by something, I think that speaks volumes. She is however making a serious accusation against me directly that has zero validity. And THAT I take seriously.”
“I have plenty of people who know the truth, and I know the truth, so I am not afraid,” Brooke concluded her latest statement. “I showed compassion for her in my post. At this point, I think her response says more about her than it does about me.”
The singer’s Instagram message was in direct response to a Facebook post her mother published on Friday morning. Linda, 65, dubbed Brooke a “narcissist” and said it “seems narcissism runs deep in this family.”
She also threatened to sue her estranged daughter.
“Seems narcissism runs deep in this family,” Hogan’s ex-wife wrote. “Brooke is a narcissist just like her dad… going out… spewing lies to everyone and I’m supposed to defend my truth against that. I’m not about to do that… it seems to me that she doesn’t want the truth being revealed to her new h[u]sband and his family about who she was and things in her past!”
“I think I spanked Brooke once yeah I called her a couple of names, by no means ever treated her the way she’s painting it,” she continued. “They had cell phones. She could’ve posted horrible things about me back when all of this was supposedly happening, but nothing she didn’t because nothing was happening, but when she took her dad‘s side after the divorce and wrote the wonderful Mom song, and went to all the tabloids because Terry was using her as a tool.. her memory is completely skewed about the treatment that she received growing up in our household, and you can talk to anyone.”
“You can ask anybody you can ask Terry .. that none of the stuff ever happened,” Linda added, referring her ex-husband’s real name, Terry Gene Bollea. “It’s her angle to keep her family away from her now, revealing who she used to be after drinking a half a bottle of vodka.”
Also surprising was Linda’s claim that Brooke once got “so drunk” and “broke my collarbone.”
“She was so drunk she broke my collarbone and cut my lip and insisted everyone take her to the hospital because she was poisoned and she wasn’t,” Linda alleged. “She was just drunk… there’s many stories like that.”
“I’m not gonna go on, but I’m not gonna defend myself against these ridiculous allegations,” the fiery Facebook post concluded. “I’ll do that in court if she keeps it up.”
The Post reached out to representatives for Linda, Hulk and Brooke for comment.
Hulk and Linda married in 1983. They welcomed their daughter, Brooke, in 1988, and son, Nick, 34, in 1990.
Linda filed for divorce in 2007 after she found out that Hulk allegedly had an affair with one of Brooke’s closest friends. The couple’s divorce was finalized in 2009.
“I have completely separate reasons for going no contact with each of my parents,” Brooke explained this week. “No contact with my Mom has nothing to do with my Dad, and no contact with my Father has nothing to do with my Mother.”
“It is my own personal truth,” she added, “and you can do your own math.”
