💔 “I Felt Him Leave Before the News ”Came”—BrookeHogan Breaks Silence on Hulk Hogan’s Death, Shuts Down Lies About Their Bond 💔
Brooke Hogan is finally setting the record straight—and doing so with her heart wide open.
In an emotional Instagram post following the death of her father, wrestling icon Hulk Hogan, Brooke Hogan Oleksy shared a deeply personal tribute that cuts through the rumors and headlines. The 37-year-old opened up about their real relationship, the spiritual bond they shared, and why she had to take a step back in recent years—but not for the reasons many assumed.
“When he left this earth, it felt like part of my spirit left with him,” she wrote, recalling how she felt her father’s passing before anyone even told her. Hulk Hogan, born Terry Bollea, died suddenly at age 71, leaving the wrestling world and fans around the globe in shock.
Despite years of tabloid stories painting a fractured relationship, Brooke insisted their connection remained unshakable. “My dad’s blood runs through my veins. His eyes shine through my children. Our bond was never broken—not even in his final moments,” she declared.
No Fights, No Fallout—Just Misunderstood Silence
Brooke revealed that the emotional distance between them wasn’t because of some explosive argument but rather a slow drift marked by confusion and pain. “We never had a ‘big fight.’ We never ‘fought,’” she wrote. “It was a series of private phone calls no one will ever hear, know, or understand.”
She and her husband, former NHL player Steven Oleksy, even moved to Florida to be closer to Hulk during a time he was undergoing nearly 25 surgeries. But at some point, she was unexpectedly shut out.
“Then all of a sudden he didn’t want me at surgeries,” Brooke recalled. “Everything started getting covered in a thick veil. It was like there was a force field around him I couldn’t get through.”
Protecting Her Heart, But Never Letting Go
Over the past two years, Brooke made the painful choice to protect her emotional well-being by stepping away—a decision she says was misunderstood by the public and press. Behind the scenes, her husband stayed in touch with Hulk, quietly trying to maintain a connection.
After Hulk’s passing, Brooke found old messages her husband had sent—some replied to, others left unanswered. “But all of them broke my heart,” she admitted.
Even with the distance, Brooke says she never stopped loving her father—not for a second. “He knew I would run through a burning building for him. And in many ways, along the path of life, I did.”
Her Final Words to Hulk Hogan
In one of the most touching parts of her post, Brooke offered a final message of gratitude and love:
“Thank you for choosing me in this lifetime and for loving me so deeply. I love you more than stars in the sky, 4LifeAfterLife.”
