Hulk Hogan's wife reveals shock in emotional tribute after wrestling icon's death: 'I wasn't ready for this'
Hulk Hogan's wife penned a heartfelt message on social media Friday, expressing her shock and the belief that the wrestling legend would "overcome" the health issues that had plagued him in the weeks leading up to his death on Thursday. Sky Daily Hogan broke her silence with a lengthy message posted to Instagram early Friday morning, just a day after Hogan passed after suffering cardiac arrest at his home in Florida. He was 71. "I wasn't ready for this… and my heart is in pieces," her message read. "He had been dealing with some health issues, but I truly believed we would overcome them. I had so much faith in his strength. I thought we still had more time." TMZ Sports first reported the news of Hogan's passing, citing a possible "cardiac arrest" at his home in Clearwater, Florida. The Clearwater Police Department later confirmed that emergency personnel responded to a medical call just before 10 a.m. Hogan was treated on site for a cardiac arrest before being transported to Morton Plant Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The news of Hogan's death came weeks after he was alleged to be having a health crisis. However, his wife denied those reports at the time, saying he was "strong" and was recovering from surgeries. "This loss is sudden and impossible to process. To the world, he was a legend… but to me, he was my Terry. The man I loved. My partner. My heart," he message on Friday continued. "Hulk loved his fans so much and despite his growing physical discomfort, he did everything he could to show up, sign autographs, take photos, and connect with the people who supported him through it all. You meant everything to him." Sky called Hogan a "believer in Christ," adding that "I take comfort knowing his soul is at peace and he's been welcomed home." In December 2023, Hogan and his wife shared on social media that they had been baptized. "Total surrender and dedication to Jesus is the greatest day of my life. No worries, no hate, no judgment… only love," he wrote in an Instagram post at the time. News of Hogan's death sent shockwaves around social media as fellow wrestling icons, fans and political leaders shared tributes to honor his legacy. "Please keep his family and all of us who loved him in your prayers as we try to navigate this new reality," Sky said Friday.

Little girl's organ donation plea for Keir Starmer as she delivers letter to No 10
Little Beatrix Adamson-Archbold spent more than 15 months waiting in hospital for a heart transplant - her dad is now campaigning to put organ donor lessons on the national curriculum A little girl who spent more than a year waiting for a critical heart transplant has delivered a letter to No 10 appealing for organ donation lessons in schools. Beatrix Adamson-Archbold waited more than 15 months in hospital for her heart transplant, leading her devoted dad Terry Archbold to campaign for organ donor lessons to be part of the national curriculum. He decided to make the four-year-old's letter a special delivery. Terry, a police officer from Burnopfield, Co Durham, has won the support of his local Labour MP Liz Twist. He said: "Bea had a great day out, everyone was so kind to her. We have spoken a great deal about organ donation and I decided to put down everything she said in a letter to the Prime Minister." "She knew he was the 'boss of the country' and we were going to his home." Bea wrote to Sir Keir: "Hello, my name is Beatrix and I am 4 years old, what is your name? I will be 5 when it is my next birthday. I have a special heart, I had a heart transplant and it saved my life. "When I grow up I want to be a Doctor and a Unicorn Rider all at the same time. I want to be a Doctor to help people. Helping people and other children like me is nice. "I would like you to talk about special hearts and organs, I had a poorly heart but when I had a heart transplant it made me better. I want you to talk to my Dad about organs. "He says the more we talk about it the more poorly people we can help save. Kids like me. I have a school book which teaches about organs, it is an Orgamite book and I want to give it to you as a present." Now thriving, Bea is a testament to the miracle of transplant surgery. Terry told of the costs to the NHS for her care prior to her op in June 2023 at the Freeman Hospital, Newcastle; 30 days in paediatric intensive care, 425 days in the high dependency unit and fitting a mechanical heart to keep her alive cost more than £1m. Terry, 47, believes school lessons about organ donation for children of all ages would raise awareness, increase the number of donors and reduce the cost burden on the NHS. He was in London with Bea's mum Cheryl Adamson, 42, a council worker, who collected a British Citizen Award for her work with Bea's 500 Club, a group which supports good causes and people in need. The couple have seen both sides of the transplant journey. In 2018, they lost their daughter Isabel (c) when she was stillborn and they donated her heart for medical research. Terry has also written to the PM. He is being supported in his crusade by Sergio Petrucci, who won a Pride of Britain award for his work with the Red Sky Foundation, and Orgamites, the group which teaches about organ donation in schools. The government is considering an independent review on the national curriculum with Professor Becky Francis and her expert panel giving their recommendations late last year.

Hulk Hogan's wife Sky breaks silence after his death in heartbreaking post
Hulk Hogan's wife, Sky, has shared an emotional statement about his death. The former wrestler died Thursday at the age of 71, after medics were reportedly called to his home in Clearwater, Florida. While a cause of death hasn't been revealed, TMZ reported he experienced 'cardiac arrest.' Sky, who married Hulk in 2023, broke her silence Friday on Instagram, sharing a sweet picture of herself kissing him on the cheek. In the caption, she also shared details about his physical health before his death. 'I wasn't ready for this…and my heart is in pieces,' Sky, 46, wrote. 'He had been dealing with some health issues, but I truly believed we would overcome them. I had so much faith in his strength. I thought we still had more time. 'This loss is sudden and impossible to process,' she continued. 'To the world, he was a legend… but to me, he was my Terry. The man I loved. My partner. My heart.' She added that her husband loved his fans a great deal, 'despite his growing physical discomfort.' 'He did everything he could to show up, sign autographs, take photos, and connect with the people who supported him through it all. You meant everything to him,' Sky continued. 'He was a believer in Christ, and I take comfort knowing his soul is at peace and he's been welcomed home.' 'Please keep his family and all of us who loved him in your prayers as we try to navigate this new reality,' she concluded. The yoga instructor and Hulk got engaged in July 2023, after a year of dating. They officially tied the knot in September 2023. Sky was Hulk's third wife. The WWE legend was married to Linda Hogan from 1993 to 2009 and then to Jennifer McDaniel from 2010 to 2021. He and Linda shared two children, Brooke, 37, and Nick, 36. However, Brooke has been estranged from her parents for nearly a decade. Only days before Hulk's death, Linda shared a throwback photo with her ex-husband. She posted a snap of them from 1996, when they attended the NATPE Convention in Las Vegas. She simply captioned the post: 'The good old days !' Before meeting Hulk, Sky welcomed three children of her own, but she keeps their lives out of the spotlight. Hulk has been mourned by the WWE, fellow wrestlers, and political figures. On his Truth social account, President Donald Trump issued a tribute to Hulk, who became a fixture during Trump's 2024 re-election campaign, appearing at the Republican National Convention to appeal to voters. 'We lost a great friend today, the 'Hulkster.' Hulk Hogan was MAGA all the way — Strong, tough, smart, but with the biggest heart,' Trump wrote. He continued: 'He gave an absolutely electric speech at the Republican National Convention, that was one of the highlights of the entire week. He entertained fans from all over the World, and the cultural impact he had was massive.' Born Terry Gene Bollea, Hulk skyrocketed to fame in the 1980s, bringing professional wrestling into the mainstream. He went on to become an eight-time WrestleMania headliner and six-time World Wrestling Entertainment champion, in addition to an actor and reality television personality. Hulk was also embroiled in controversy throughout his career, with a sex tape scandal and racist remarks clouding his reputation.

On Thursday morning, paramedics responded to reports of a cardiac arrest at Hogan's $11.5 million home in Clearwater, Florida. He was treated at the scene and taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Hogan was reported to be on his deathbed just one month before his death as he suffered from a series of health issues that left him unable to feel his legs. However, despite the rumors, Sky, who had been married to Hogan since September 2023, insisted that her husband was healthy. In response to claims that Hogan was in a coma, Sky said last month, "His heart is strong, and there was never any lack of oxygen or brain damage. None of these rumors are true. Speaking to fans on her Instagram stories, Sky explained that her husband was recovering from a complex procedure. 'He's been recovering from a major four-level Anterior Cervical Discectomy and [Fusion], which is an intense surgery with a long and layered healing process,' she said at the time. 'If you look it up, you'll see what the last six weeks have involved… not just for his spine, but also for his vocal cords, and the eating/breathing tubes that are clamped over during surgery." ACDF treats pinched nerves in the neck by removing damaged discs and stabilizing the spine. Daily said her husband of nearly two years had been "in and out of the hospital" as he recovered from surgeries. "He's healing and we're taking it one day at a time with love, strength, and patience," she said.
