Why Brooke Stepped Away from the Estate
In 2023, Brooke Hogan made a bold decision to remove herself from her father’s will.

The Death of Hulk Hogan Changes Everything
Hulk Hogan, the wrestling icon born Terry Gene Bollea, tragically passed away in July 2025 at age 71. He suffered a heart attack at his Florida home while recovering from surgery. The unexpected loss sent shockwaves through the wrestling world and left his family members grappling with grief and complicated emotions.
Brooke had last spoken to her father in September 2023, meaning they were estranged when he died. She didn’t attend his funeral, deepening the family divide. Now, nine months after his passing, she’s publicly processing her emotional turmoil in new interviews.
Brooke’s Current Situation
| Factor | Brooke Hogan | Nick Hogan |
| Will Status | Removed (2023) | Sole Beneficiary |
| Estate Inheritance | $0 | $5 Million |
| Current Relationship | Estranged from family | Married to Sky Daily |
| Influence on Decisions | No seat at table | Complete control |
Brooke is currently estranged from both her mother Linda Hogan and her brother Nick Hogan. She feels completely powerless in decisions involving her father’s legacy, his $5 million estate, and the upcoming Netflix documentary titled Hulk Hogan: Real American, set to premiere on April 22, 2026. Brooke was asked to participate in the documentary but declined to answer requests.
“I regret that decision. Not because of the money, I’ve never been about the money, but because now I don’t have a seat at the table. I can’t do anything to help my dad after his death, or to find out answers, or to avenge him in any way, shape or form, because the people that I so badly wanted to get away from are now running the show, which is even more of a nightmare.”

The Emotional Toll of Her Decision
Brooke revealed that her regret isn’t about losing money, but about losing her voice. She can no longer influence decisions about her late father’s legacy or seek answers to lingering questions. The businesswoman, who is also a mother of two, feels completely shut out from her family’s affairs at a critical time.
She emphasized that she would still make the same safety choice today if faced with the same circumstances, but the emotional consequences are devastating. The loss of her father figure, combined with family estrangement, has left her feeling helpless and isolated. Brooke is now processing grief while watching people she distrusts control her father’s memory and estate.
What Does This Mean for Brooke Hogan’s Future?
Brooke is moving forward with her own projects and business ventures, including her new wine brand House of Stars. However, the pain of losing her father without reconciliation remains fresh. She’s publicly sharing her story through podcast appearances and media interviews, seeking to reclaim her narrative and voice in the family saga that continues to unfold in the public eye. Will Brooke find peace with her decision, or will family tensions escalate in coming months?
