“I Removed Myself from His Will”: Brooke Hogan Exposes the Real Reason She Skipped Hulk Hogan’s Funeral—And It Was His Final Wish!
Heartbreaking Truth: Why Brooke Hogan Refused to Attend Hulk Hogan’s Funeral—And Chose a Private Goodbye Instead
In a stunning and emotional revelation, Brooke Hogan has finally broken her silence on why she was absent from her father, Hulk Hogan’s, funeral—and the truth is more heartbreaking than anyone expected.
While fans, friends, and fellow wrestlers gathered to pay their respects to the late WWE legend, real name Terry Bollea, who passed away at 71 from a heart attack after a battle with leukemia, one face was noticeably missing: his daughter, Brooke.
Now, she’s telling the world why.
“He Didn’t Want a Funeral”: Brooke’s Emotional Goodbye
In a deeply personal Instagram post, Brooke revealed that her decision to skip the public farewell was actually in line with her father’s own wishes.
“My father hated the morbidity of funerals. He didn’t want one,” she wrote. “So I honored him in the only way that felt right—privately.”
Instead of standing at a pulpit, Brooke took her newborn twins, Oliver Andrew and Molly Gene, to her father’s favorite beach—a place filled with memories, laughter, and peace. “The only thing missing today was him in his pop-up lawn chair watching the waves,” she added. “Every grain of sand and every wave reminded me of being your beach baby.”
A Quiet Tribute, Far From the Spotlight
Brooke shared touching moments from their beachside tribute—a silent, soul-centered sendoff far removed from media cameras and public scrutiny. “Molly loved the water. I think she’ll be a ‘little fish,’ as you called me,” she said, her words soaked in nostalgia and love.
But behind the heartfelt tribute was a deeper, more complicated story.
“Take Me Off Everything”: Why Brooke Left Her Father’s Will
In a raw conversation with longtime family friend Bubba the Love Sponge, Brooke dropped a bombshell—she had asked to be removed from her father’s will years ago.
“I was sobbing,” she said. “I just said, take me off everything. I don’t want to be a part of it.”
Brooke explained that her decision wasn’t about money—it was about peace. She feared the inevitable drama between her mother, Linda Hogan, her father’s new wife, Sky Daily, and rumors swirling about Scientology influence. “I don’t want to fight Linda. I don’t want to fight Scientology,” she admitted. “It scared me.”
The Final Call: A Cryptic Goodbye
Perhaps the most haunting moment came when Brooke recalled her last conversation with her father.
“He said, ‘I just wanted to call and say I’m sorry for whatever I did.’ I asked, Sorry, for what? He never said. That was the last time I talked to my dad.”
Though the words left her with emotional scars, she still holds space for love and forgiveness.
“No matter what he ever did, I would forgive him for it. That’s my daddy. I love him, and I miss him.”
A Farewell on Her Own Terms
By the time Hulk Hogan was laid to rest, Brooke had already made peace with her decision. In her final message, she wrote:
“We honored you in the simplest, most genuine way that agreed with my soul. I pray you are at peace and know how dearly I love you. Rest in heaven, Daddy.”
In a world obsessed with public grieving, Brooke Hogan’s story is a powerful reminder that some goodbyes are meant to be private—and that sometimes, love is loudest in silence.
