Hulk Hogan Was Not Talking to One of His Kids at the Time of His Death

He may not have been the MCU’s version of the Hulk, but Hulk Hogan was still a force to be reckoned with.

And he was not just a wrestling machine … he was a love machine. That’s right — Hulk Hogan (born Terry Gene Bollea) was married three times before his death in July 2025.

While his wives have made headlines over the years, his kids have kept a lower profile following the end of their reality show, Hogan Knows Best.

So, what are Brooke and Nick Hogan up to today, and how was their relationship with their father at the time of his passing?

Hulk was famously married to Linda Hogan (née Claridge) for 24 years before their messy divorce in 2007. They married in Dec. 1983 and had their first child, Brooke, on May 5, 1988.

On July 27, 1990, their son Nick was born. However, in 2007, Christiane Plante, a friend of Brooke’s, told the National Enquirer (via Today) that she and Hulk had an affair.

This led to Hulk and Linda’s messy divorce, in which Linda received about 70% of their assets.

Brooke Hogan is an actor, singer, and entrepreneur. Her 2004 hit, “Everything to Me,” topped the Billboard charts.

Now, she’s busy promoting her Nashville interior design firm, BB Designs, and is happily married to Steven Oleksy, the founder of ESE Hockey. The couple share twins.

Sadly, her relationship with her father was strained at the time of his death.

"For my own journey to healing and happiness, I have chosen to create some distance between myself and my family, and am focusing on people and things that heal my heart and align with my own personal beliefs, goals, and values," she said in 2023.

Alternatively, her brother Nick is primarily a DJ, although he also has some acting credits. He appeared in Masterminds in 2012 and in Kill Katie Malone in 2010, but is more focused on his DJ career.

In 2007, he drove into a palm tree under the influence of drugs or alcohol, which led to his friend John Graziano’s permanent brain damage.

While Nick’s (and Hulk’s) legacy is marred by that story, Nick has done everything he could to turn himself around afterward. He spent eight months in a Florida county jail and lost his license for three years.

Now, Nick is married to his tour manager, Playboy centerfold Tana Lea.

Hulk Hogan married his third wife, Sky Daily, in September 2023 and became a stepfather to her three children: two sons and a daughter named Leighton.

Before his death, Sky would share photos of Hulk spending time with her children and gushed about his stepfather skills.

"I love them!! Caught HH giving words of wisdom to his stepson before homecoming. Can’t believe my handsome boy is already 15," she captioned one photo of her oldest son with Hulk in 2023.

In another post with Hulk and her kids, Sky wrote, "Birthday candles on Saturday, Mother’s Day flowers on Sunday…feeling grateful, a little tired, and very loved!"

Hulk's presence will definitely be missed by his kids and stepkids.
