Brooke had cut off communication with her after a fight with Hulk eight years ago.
“I don’t know how that reflected onto me but she cut me out too,” she shared. Linda also revealed that Brooke had twins and got married without informing her.
“Brooke doesn’t talk to us. She had twins, she got married [and] she didn’t tell us,” Linda said, as per Page Six.
Despite the family estrangement, Linda mentioned that she still maintains a relationship with her and Hulk's son, Nick Hogan. “He’s still such a good boy,” she said.
Linda Hogan accuses Hulk Hogan of being a ‘complete liar’
While discussing her past marriage, Linda Hogan made serious allegations against Hulk Hogan.
“I have to be honest about what I went through in my marriage … and what it entailed and what it [has] caused over the years,” she stated.
She accused the retired WWE star of dishonesty and addiction issues.
“He’s a complete liar. He’s a s** addict. . . Yet he marches on,” Linda said.
She also called out Hulk for promoting his Real American Beer brand while she continued to struggle. “Such a hero, right? Not,” she added.
Linda shared that she had tried to repair their family ties multiple times.
"I’ve given Hulk more opportunities to come back,” she said. However, she admitted that the pain still lingers. “It’s been 20 years and I’m still this sad. Somebody please explain that … ,” said Linda.
Linda Hogan claims her lawyers were in cahoots with Hulk Hogan's lawyers during divorce
Linda Hogan expressed regret over her divorce settlement, saying that a significant portion went to lawyers.
“My lawyers were in cahoots with his lawyers. They had everything set up where they were cashing in on me. Half of my settlement went to the lawyers,” said Linda.
She also clarified that she has no interest in remarrying after her experience with Hogan.

“I do enjoy living alone. I never want to be married again after him, trust me,” she added.
Linda filed for divorce from Hulk in 2007 after allegations surfaced that he had an affair with Brooke’s best friend, as revealed by her publicist to E! News at the time.
The couple finalized their divorce in 2009. In his 2009 memoir, 'My Life Outside the Ring', Hulk denied ever cheating on Linda.
The family was widely known for their reality show 'Hogan Knows Best', which aired from 2005 to 2007.
Since then, Hogan has remarried twice, tying the knot with Jennifer McDaniel in 2010 before divorcing in 2021, and later marrying Sky Daily in 2023.
Brooke was notably absent from her father’s latest wedding, stating on Instagram that she was focusing on her “healing and happiness.”
