In the last two years of Hulk Hogan's life, the father-daughter relationship grew distant. Brooke's heartfelt tribute on Instagram clarified that their bond was complicated, but real: 'My dad's blood runs through my veins. His eyes shine through my children. And our blood has never broken, not even in his final moments.' Despite her efforts to stay connected — even moving to Florida with her husband, Steven Oleksy — Brooke said it felt like 'a force field' had built up around her father. In 2023, she voluntarily removed herself from his will, citing distrust of those around him and a desire to avoid posthumous legal battles. 'I told him he had my support,' she wrote. 'I know in my heart I did everything I could.' Now, with twins at home and an album on the way, Brooke is focused on the future and she's moving on, but will keep her father's memory alive.

Who is Hulk Hogan's daughter? All about Brooke Hogan's career and family
Image via Jamie McCarthy/WireImage Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan has been a household name for decades, but fans often find themselves curious about his family life - especially his daughter, Brooke Hogan , who has carved her own path in the spotlight. Early life and family background Brooke Hogan, born Brooke Ellen Bollea on May 5, 1988, in Tampa, Florida, is the daughter of wrestling legend Hulk Hogan (real name Terry Bollea) and his first wife, Linda Claridge. Now 36, Brooke is the elder sibling to Nick Hogan (born in 1990) and has remained closely tied to the world of entertainment, though in different ways than her father. Brooke first gained attention through the reality show Hogan Knows Best (2005–2007), which gave fans an inside look into the life of the Bollea family. Her presence on the show, especially her efforts to launch a music career, earned her a dedicated fan base. Hulk Hogan's 17,000 Sq. Ft. Tampa Mansion Feat.
