Hulk Hogan has finally spoken out after his daughter, Brooke Hogan, accused him of verbal, mental, and physical abuse since childhood.
Brooke Hogan reveals years of alleged abuse
Brooke Hogan, now 36, changed her last name to Brooke Oleksy after marrying former ice hockey player Steven Oleksy.
On March 28, she took to Instagram to share her emotional story and explain why she cut ties with her family.
She wrote: “I have been EXTREMELY verbally and mentally abused since childhood. Sadly, it would frequently turn physical. And sometimes, it’s not by the person you would assume—abuse comes in all shapes and sizes.”
Brooke described how the toxic family environment affected her life:
- Struggling with low self-esteem and pretending to be confident.
- Receiving hurtful messages and verbal attacks for years.
- Facing pressure to defend inappropriate actions in public.
- Watching others profit from her suffering, while her own life crumbled.
After years of pain, Brooke decided to distance herself from her family for her own well-being.
Hulk Hogan reacts to the allegations
For days, Hulk Hogan remained silent. Then, instead of directly addressing Brooke’s accusations, he posted a video on Instagram featuring himself and his wife, Sky Daily Hogan, casually eating popcorn. The caption read:
“Getting ready for the new HH TV show coming soon!”
Many fans saw this as a mocking response, suggesting Hogan was downplaying his daughter’s claims.
Some even compared the video to the Michael Jackson popcorn meme, often used to react to drama.
