Brooke Hogan
Brooke Hogan is Hulk Hogan’s firstborn daughter with his ex-wife Linda. She pursued a career in music and starred in her family’s reality TV show Hogan Knows Best.
An audio recording in 2005 revealed that Hulk Hogan used racial slurs in regards to her dating a Black man. In light of the recording made public, she made a poem defending her father. “If you knew the dad I knew / you’d know his tender heart,” she began. “He’d never want to hurt his fans / or family from the start / If you knew my father / you would know how hard he fought…/ and the way it brought a smile to people light, medium and dark.”
However, she cut all ties with her family. In response to her mom Linda accusing her of not reaching out to her, she wrote on Instagram, “I try very hard to ignore issues surrounding my family in hopes I might have peace in my life. Sadly, I’ve intentionally made myself smaller in my professional career in music and TV simply to dodge the public negativity surrounding my family that has continuously and relentlessly overshadowed anything I do.”
“What I’m about to say is not pointed at either person,” she wrote. “I have been EXTREMELY verbally and mentally abused since childhood. Sadly, it would frequently turn physical.”
“I was expected to,” she added, “and DID forgive massive blows to my career and personal life, nasty behavior, omissions of truth, blatant lies, manipulation, and repetitive errors in hopes of renewing previous family bonds. I’ve been used as a pawn, a buffer, and been treated like l’m downright stupid too.”
She continued, “I so badly wanted to see good in them, protect, help, and start anew-just to be disrespected again and again. I longed for a normal family, but it never came to fruition.”
“Life is so precious,” she concluded. “I want so much to be able to enjoy what’s important…my children and my life I have worked so hard to create and protect-and I hope everyone can give me the chance to do that without injecting any more poison into it.”
