Hulk Hogan's son Nick pays tribute to his ‘hero'
Nick Hogan, the son of wrestling legend Hulk Hogan, posted an emotional tribute to his father over the weekend. The elder Hogan died last week at the age of 71 and his son began his post Saturday thanking everyone 'who has reached out to me and comforted me over the last few days.' 'It truly means a lot,' Nick Hogan wrote in the caption of a series of photos showing him with his father over the years. 'I'm sorry to everyone I have not responded to yet. This has been overwhelming and extremely difficult.' The younger Hogan added, 'Hearing so many kind words and stories about my dad's life, interactions and experiences with everyone has been incredible and comforting.' 'My dad was the most incredible person I've ever known and will always be my hero. He was the most kind, loving and amazing father anybody could ask for,' he wrote. 'I feel so blessed to have had the greatest dad in the world. He was not only the best dad but also my mentor and my best friend.' Nick noted that he was able to spend a great deal of time with his father after moving back to Florida a few years ago to be closer to him. He made sure to thank his famous parent and 'told him how much I loved him and hugged him every chance I got.' 'I would do anything to have him back but I know now that he will always be watching over me,' he wrote. 'I will always remember the lessons and advice he gave me and carry on in a way that I know would make him proud.' Nick and his sister Brooke appeared with their father and their mother, Linda, on the VH1 reality series 'Hogan Knows Best,' which ran for four seasons from 2005 to 2007. His parents, who married in 1983, divorced in 2009.

‘80s Sitcom Star, 79, Makes Heartbreaking Admission About Her Brain Tumor
Actress Sandy Duncan, 79, is sharing details about being diagnosed with a benign brain tumor when she was 24 years old. During a July 2025 interview with That's Classic, Duncan said she started feeling unwell while filming the 1971 sitcom, Funny Face. According to Duncan, she was "working like crazy," despite being "so ill." "I had screaming headaches. My vision was already gone," said the actress. Duncan said that MRIs and CAT scans were still in development, meaning doctors had a difficult time determining what was wrong. However, a doctor advised her to have her mother stay with her during the last week of filming Funny Face, which only lasted one season. Duncan said while her mother was staying over, her vision went completely white. "I screamed for my mother," recalled Duncan during the interview. Duncan said her mother called her doctor, who made a home visit. According to the Hogan Family star, he gave her "a shot to relax" amid her intense pain. Duncan shared that she believed the doctor was euthanizing her. "I thought, 'They are putting me to sleep. They are putting me out. Goodbye.' I said okay. What am I going to do?" said Duncan. After wrapping up filming Funny Face, Duncan was able to get exploratory surgery, which determined she had a brain tumor. "They went in and hunted around and there was this big tumor attached to the back of the orbit of my eye," said Duncan. Duncan also said while doctors were able to successfully remove the tumor, she ended up losing vision in her left eye because of the surgery. "They removed the orbit and the tumor. And in doing that, they severed the optic nerve because it's such a thin little line. And it got cut. And that's when my vision went boom. And it was a 10-hour surgery and I woke up halfway through it," said the Broadway actress. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved
