In a raw and emotional interview on TMZ Live, Brooke Hogan unloaded her side of the story, pushing back against what she described as a campaign of false narratives spread by people from her late father's camp. She issued a bold warning saying that if they keep spinning lies about her, they should prepare to hire a lawyer as well.
She sends the message to those she believes are tarnishing her name for personal gain.
Brooke says she's been dealing with 'laughable' and increasingly cruel stories about her. She claims that she ghosted Hulk Hogan in Jacksonville, returned unopened gifts, and deliberately skipped his funeral. But according to her, these narratives are being pushed by people who once depended on Hulk for a paycheck and now fear what she knows.
The lies, she told TMZ, 'have gotten so unbelievable it's laughable,' and it's making her mad.
Brooke explained that her absence at Hulk Hogan's funeral wasn't a snub, but a decision rooted in love. 'My father hated the morbidity of funerals. He didn't want one,' she shared in a heartfelt Instagram post. Instead, she honored him in a quiet and personal way by taking her newborn twins to the beach, one of her dad's favorite places.
Still, the emotional weight of the past few weeks has taken a toll. Brooke admitted that she hasn't eaten or slept in weeks, calling herself 'a nervous wreck' because she has to constantly respond to false stories.
Despite removing herself from the will in hopes of avoiding a family inheritance battle, Brooke says the drama found her anyway. 'I just said, 'Take me off everything. I don't want to be a part of it.'' But as she put it bluntly, the 'sh*tshow' came knocking regardless.

For Brooke, this moment is about more than inheritance or public image is about healing and walking away from a toxic cycle. Her decision to step back from both her father and mother, Linda Hogan, was driven by personal reasons. 'I longed for a normal family, but it never came to fruition,' she wrote on Instagram.
She also expressed concerns about Hulk Hogan's final marriage to Sky Daily and her ties to Scientology. Brooke said she warned her father, citing advice from Scientology critic, Mike Rinder, but felt dismissed.
'He literally said to me… 'I guess you have to live your life and I have to live mine.''
The last time they spoke was before his wedding in September 2023, when Hulk left a 'very weird, cryptic' voicemail apologizing for something Brooke never quite understood. "'Hey, I just wanted to call and say I'm sorry for whatever I did.'" It was, heartbreakingly, the final message from her father.
Now, as she mourns in her own way and raises her twins with husband Steve Oleksy, Brooke wants one thing: peace. But she won't let falsehoods go unchecked. 'Leave me and my father alone and let that poor man go to heaven. But if it continues… I'm not the one to come after,' Brooke asserted.

Virat Kohli resumes practice, shows first signs of returning to Indian cricket moments after white beard pic sparks fear
Virat Kohli is going nowhere. At least that's what it looks like. The Indian batting superstar, away from the limelight, just shared his first glimpse of returning to international cricket, sending a wave of happiness among his fans. Earlier in the day, a picture of him surfaced online, with plenty of grey hair, leaving fans worried. The Kohli faithful felt the end was near and feared the worst – a possible retirement from the ODIs, going by the amount of grey in his beard. However, Kohli, through a simple social media activity, confirmed that he is not done, and if anything, he is set for a return to Indian cricket sooner rather than later. Virat Kohli had his first hit in a while(Virat Kohli-Instagram) Kohli shared a picture with Gujarat Titans assistant coach Naeem Amin, in which both posed in what appeared to be an indoor cricket training facility. The backdrop suggests that Kohli, who hasn't played cricket since the conclusion of the IPL 2025, could have resumed practice ahead of his return, currently slated for October. "Thanks for helping out with the hit, brother. Always lovely to see you," Kohli captioned his Instagram story. What confirmed Kohli's training was that Amin was holding one of Kohli's classic MRF logoed bats in his hand. Kohli has flown under the radar and remained low-key since the IPL, making just two public appearances – going to attend Wimbledon and then gracing a 'YouWeCan' event hosted in London by Yuvraj Singh. He has, otherwise, been away from the public eye, and barring a couple of posts on X on the Indian team's performances in Birmingham and the Oval, Kohli has been, well, to put it simply, in hibernation. Who is Naeem Amin? Amin has been with the Titans since the franchise's beginning in 2022 and is the head of the Mighty Willow Academy. The academy is based in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, and London, and is open to cricketers of all ages and abilities. Besides, Amin also played for Surrey CCC (2008) & Buckinghamshire CCC (2007), before serving as the national coach of Norway in 2011. He also served as the head coach of the MCC Foundation from 2013-2017, and before coming aboard the GT setup, Amis was also a coaching Assistant for Sunrisers Hyderabad from early 2018.

Forgot Rakhi is tomorrow? Last-minute gifts for your sister you can order in 10 minutes from Zepto, Blinkit and more
Let us guess. You were out here scrolling memes, binge-watching re-runs, and suddenly your mum screeches, 'Get her something!' Cue instant sibling guilt. But relax, you do not need to sprint to the mall in sweaty panic. Oh no, you forgot the Rakhi gift again?! Enter: Zepto, Blinkit, Swiggy Instamart and their superhero 10-minute deliveries. You might be last-minute, but you can still be iconic. And the gift options that they have there, might just become your go to for all the gifting sessions. Budget gifting like a pro Let us be real, Rakhi is more about the emotion than the expense (and the potential blackmail later). If you are on a budget but still want to impress your sister, here are some solid picks under ₹500 that you can get at your doorstep faster than she can send a passive-aggressive "did you forget?" text: Face sheet mask combos - Because 'I have enough sheet masks' says no girl ever. And it will give a quick glow and who doesn't want that? Mini dessert boxes – Brownies, cheesecakes, or fancy cookies? Instant peace offering. Scented candles – Because her vibe is 'main character energy'. And after she had a hectic week prep going on for Rakhi, just to unwind she finally needs her me time. Cute stationery sets – If your sister is the artsy, journal-hoarder type. Then you know how much it will make her happy. Hair accessories kits – Claw clips, scrunchies, and those Instagram trending pastel ones. You know every girl these days is just obsessed with these claw clips, so what are you waiting for just go and make her Pinterest-y dream come true. Feeling a bit extra? You want to go a little over-the-top without going broke. Fair enough. Here's what you can sneak in while pretending you totally planned this: Korean skincare hampers - Blinkit now stocks brands like Laneige and Cosrx, yes bestie. Gift her these once and she will boast about you in front of her friends the whole year. Luxury chocolate boxes – Lindt, Ferrero, even Moët-infused ones if you want to flex. This doesn't only make her happy, but she will instantly feel emotional thinking how fast you guys are growing up by remembering how you went from KitKat to Lidnt real quick. Mini perfume sets – Smell good, feel good, look rich. No girl ever says no to smelling good, and if you know her vibe, get her the miniatures, oh and also when she finally realizes which one she likes the best, after some time just get her the big one. Coffee or Matcha kits – For the caffeine-fueled drama queen in her, coffee kits, or oh, even for the Matcha girlies, order the kits, and they won't only have a new hobby, but also cute and aesthetic Instagram stories every morning. Add that emotional garnish Whatever you send, do not skip the drama. Add a note. Record a cheesy voice message. Spam her with childhood photos. Trust us, emotional blackmail via nostalgia hits harder than any Cadbury box. Even if she fake-rolls her eyes, she will screenshot it for Instagram stories. So yes, you forgot. Again. But this time, you saved it like a boss. With Zepto, Blinkit and co, you turned panic into Pinterest. Whether she is a skincare snob, snack queen, or aesthetic freak, these last-minute gifts will seal your sibling status as 'best bhai' or 'least useless brother'. For now.
