Hulk Hogan’s ex Linda surprisingly sides with her husband; warns daughter Brooke of consequences for ditching the family
The former wife of Hulk Hogan has lashed out at her daughter for abandoning the Hogan family and starting a new one without their knowledge.

The Hogans are in rancor. Earlier this week, Hulk Hogan‘s ex-wife, Linda Hogan, (real name Linda Claridge), accused her husband of disintegrating the entire household. The 65-year-old called Hulk a “liar” and a “s*x addict.” She claimed in a video posted online that her daughter Brooke hasn’t talked to her in nearly eight years.
Though Linda sobbed over the lengthy estrangement from her daughter, she has now called Brooke out over her drunkard past. In a statement given to TMZ, Linda sided with The Hulkster. Although Claridge lamented her failed marriage with the WWE HOF’er, she asserted that Hogan was always a good father who’d even invested over $3 million in Brooke’s career without asking a single question.
Linda further added that Brooke ditching their parents has even tormented her father, so as her brother, Nick. She even warned her daughter of its long-term consequences. Brooke’s mother thinks that the 36-year-old Hogan Knows Best actress is keeping her newborn twins and husband Stevan Oleksy, from Linda and Hulk to sweep her past under the rug.
Mama Hogan wrote on Facebook that Brooke would often booze up bottles of vodka growing up and was mostly a party girl. Linda accused her daughter of smashing her collarbone once and even cutting her lips under the influence of the alcohol. Not to mention Brooke’s alleged tantrums for rushing her to the hospital owing to food poisoning, which never happened per Claridge.
Linda also denied Brooke’s allegations of being verbally and physically abused as a kid. Hogan’s ex believes that Brooke is making up claims to deprive her babies of their grandparents. Linda is torn at the fact that Brooke’s children might actually never get to know how great and popular their grandfather was.
Has Linda Hogan been completely exposed by her daughter?
Shortly after Linda Hogan claimed in that teary social media rant that Brooke married without her knowledge, the latter retorted with another post on Instagram. Hogan’s daughter exposed her mother by showing a picture from June 2023 where Brooke, her husband, and Linda posed for the camera as they’d gone out for lunch.

Also, Brooke, in her initial statement over Linda’s emotional breakdown, never unmasked the culprits of her child abuse by names. But since Linda took offense to those comments, it speaks volumes about the person whom Brooke was referring to. Linda has pulled back on her badmouthing of Hulk Hogan and is targeting her daughter, as is evident.
Amid the ongoing family turmoil, The Immortal One has yet to break silence. He did have his daughter’s backing even after the online dissemination of the audiotape containing racial slurs in 2015. But it turns out she was asked to do it by her ill-famed dad, as Brooke alluded to via lengthy explanatory notes on social media. She added that she did it purely out of affection for her beloved ones but was lied to in return.
Brooke’s husband, Steven Oleksy, details being repeatedly shunned by Hulk Hogan
The torrid environment that Brooke claims she was exposed to from an early age is no longer an issue. She has a former NFL-playing husband in Steven Oleksy, who has chimed in on the ongoing Hogan family drama to take a stand for his wife. The claim that Brooke broke her mother’s collarbone was laughable to those close to the situation, said Oleksy.

The ice hockey player added that his wife might be an occasional drinker, but neither of them has ever consumed drugs in any form, dismissing Linda’s allegations of her daughter being a party girl. Oleksy asserted that his intimate nuptials with Brooke weren’t their choice, but they were left with no other option.
Steven indirectly aimed at Hulk Hogan for denying a proposal to attend his daughter’s wedding when asked. The 71-year-old said he doesn’t go to marriages or funerals. However, Hulk tying the knot with Sky Daily completely shocked Brooke and Oleksy. Another incident where Brooke was left heartbroken came in the form of Hogan not being interested in attending a Stevie Nicks concert with Brooke, something that had been on her bucket list for a long time.
Brooke was given a cold shoulder from Hulk again after she renovated and designed a home for her father, asking nothing in return but watching a sunset together. It was after that when Brooke decided to cut all ties with the concerned man, asking to be removed from the documents that bound her in a fiduciary. As for what she’s doing currently, Steven revealed that Brooke owns one of the most successful interior designing firms in Nashville.
