Revealed: Why Hulk Hogan’s Estranged Daughter Brooke Was Left Out of His Will, According to Report

Brooke Hogan, daughter of the late wrestling icon Hulk Hogan, was reportedly removed from her father’s will—by her own request. According to sources cited by TMZ, Brooke asked to be taken out of Hulk Hogan’s will in 2023, expressing concerns about the people surrounding her father and a desire to distance herself from what she described as a “financial mess.”

Sources told TMZ that Brooke did not trust those around Hulk, so she asked to have her name removed from his will in 2023 to avoid a financial mess.
Despite her removal from the will, Brooke is still expected to receive a portion of funds from a life insurance trust that Hulk Hogan, whose real name was Terry Gene Bollea, had established. She is named as one of the beneficiaries and reportedly plans to use the modest inheritance for her children’s college funds. The status of Hulk Hogan’s other assets remains unclear at this time.

Brooke, now 37, and her father had been estranged for several years prior to his passing. Their relationship was reportedly strained due to various personal issues, including allegations regarding Hulk’s treatment of Brooke. Nonetheless, the bond between father and daughter endured in some form. In a statement following her father’s death, Brooke reflected on their connection:
“My dad’s blood runs through my veins. His eyes shine through my children. And our bond has never broken, not even in his final moments. We had a connection deeper than words, one that spanned lifetimes. I am so grateful that I knew the real version of him. Not just the one the world viewed through a carefully curated lens. We shared a quiet, sacred bond, one that could be seen and felt by anyone who witnessed us together.”

Their final chat was said to have happened in September 2023 — around the time he tied the knot with his wife, Sky Daily.
Sources close to the family revealed that Brooke was grateful to have been able to say “I love you” to her father in their final conversation, which reportedly took place in September 2023—around the same time Hulk Hogan married his wife, Sky Daily.

Despite their estrangement, those close to the Hogan family insist there was a deep love between father and daughter. “He was very proud of her, she was his little girl,” one source shared. “We still can’t believe he is gone.”

Hulk Hogan was pronounced dead at age 71 after Clearwater Fire & Rescue responded to a call about a cardiac arrest at his home in Clearwater, Florida, late Thursday morning. Brooke’s brother, Nick Hogan, is said to have informed her of their father’s passing.
