Which Hogan knows best?
Hulk Hogan’s ex-wife Linda claimed that her “narcissist” daughter Brooke Hogan broke her mom’s collarbone in a drunken scuffle after the singer seemingly accused her parents of abuse.
Linda, 65, made the accusation about her estranged daughter in a long-winded rant shared to her Facebook page Friday — prompting Brooke to vehemently deny the claim.

“It’s her angle to keep her family away from her now, revealing who she used to be after drinking a half a bottle of vodka,” Linda claimed in the post. “She was so drunk she broke my collarbone and cut my lip and insisted everyone take her to the hospital because she was poisoned and she wasn’t.”
Linda continued, “She was just drunk… there’s many stories like that. I’m not gonna go on, but I’m not gonna defend myself against these ridiculous allegations. I’ll do that in court if she keeps it up.”
The mom of two said that “narcissism runs deep in this family” as she continued to attack her daughter, who married Steven Oleksy in 2022 and announced the birth of their twins earlier this month.
“Brooke is a narcissist just like her dad ..going out .. spewing lies to everyone and I’m supposed to defend my truth against that,” she said.
Linda said that she believes the “About Us” singer “doesn’t want the truth being revealed” to her new husband and his family about things “in her past.”
“I think I spanked Brooke once yeah I called her a couple couple of names, by no means ever treated her the way she’s painting it,” Linda claimed, adding, “They had cell phones. She could’ve posted horrible things about me back when all of this was supposedly happening, but nothing she didn’t because nothing was happening.”
Linda said Brooke “took her dad’s side” after the former couple’s divorce in 2009 but accused Hulk, 71, of “using her as a tool.”
“Her memory is completely skewed about the treatment that she received growing up in our household, and you can talk to anyone. You can ask anybody you can ask Terry,” Linda wrote, referring to Hulk’s real name.
Linda asserted that “none of the stuff” Brooke, 36, accused her of “ever happened.”
Brooke swiftly denied her mom’s claims, alleging in an Instagram statement Friday that Linda is “making a serious accusation against me directly that has zero validity. And THAT I take seriously.”
The public family spat began earlier this week when Linda posted a video on social media in which she was seen sobbing about her strained relationship with Brooke.
“Brooke doesn’t talk to us. She had twins, she got married [and] she didn’t tell us,” Linda said, claiming that Brooke “cut [her] out” after she got into a fight with her ex-husband about eight years ago.
But Brooke denied the accusation in her post Friday, sharing that her mom has, in fact, met her husband and even showed proof.
“She says she hasn’t spoken to me for a number of years, yet I have a picture with her and my husband together on a day we did lunch together,” she wrote, including the photo in the next slide of the post.
Linda went on to share that she still has a relationship with her and Hulk’s 34-year-old son, Nick Hogan, but went on to drag the retired wrestler by calling him a “liar” and a “sex addict.”
Brooke responded to Linda’s sobbing message by sharing in a statement that she was “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,” she wrote, without naming any names.
“Each individual, on their own, has given me more than enough reasons over the years to make this extremely hard and painful decision to end contact,” she said.
Brooke claimed that she suffered “berating and vile text messages,” “public reamings” and “blatant lies [and] manipulation,” calling herself a “pawn.”
On Friday, Brooke clarified that she never named who her abusers were but that her mom’s reaction “says more about her than it does about me.”
