Brooke Hogan, Hulk Hogan’s estranged daughter, reportedly had compelling arguments for writing herself out of her late father’s will, according to her husband.
The daughter of wrestling legend Hulk Hogan wrote herself out of her late dad’s will, according to her husband. The WWE star died last week aged 71.
And despite sharing a heartfelt tribute to her dad in the days that followed his death, Brooke Hogan had been estranged from her dad for a number of years. Her husband has now claimed she removed her name from the sports star’s will in 2023.
Steve Oleksy, a former NHL player, tied the knot with Brooke in 2022. They have since welcomed twins, Oliver and Molly. He claimed his wife had “upheld her Dad’s best interests even after his death”.

He added that she had been “mustering up all the courage and kindness she could despite still being very hurt” when she made the touching tribute.
Oleksy described Hulk’s estate in an interview with US Weekly: “The majority of it came at the expense of my wife’s dignity.”
It was based on hurtful remarks about her and her previous relationship, which caused pain for many other families as well.
Then he made a specific reference to Hulk’s remarks about Brooke’s ex-partner. Hulk allegedly used the N-word several times in an audio clip that was leaked from his sex tape in 2012 as he allegedly called himself “racist, to a point.”
The wrestling wrestler later sued Gawker for publishing excerpts from the sex tape in 2013. He received a $ 31 million (£23.4 million) settlement a few years later in 2016.
The true victims never received a direct apology, and they never received or requested a single dollar in compensation, according to Oleksy, who continued to say that while one life was positively changed forever from a financial standpoint.
Then, according to him, Brooke was forced to defend someone without knowing the full story, and that she had no idea the remarks were related to a sex tape. He added that she was “comfortably misinformed of the transcripts” and that she was unaware of the context and language being used in relation to her and her ex.
Oleksy continued, “These are the realities we experience every day. No amount of money can cover that suffering or restore what was lost.
Following Oleksy’s death, Brooke paid a special tribute to her father. She wrote, “My father’s blood runs through my veins,” and that “his eyes shine through my children.” And even in his final moments, our friendship endures forever. Our lives were connected through a deeper than words.
“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. When he left this earth, it felt like part of my spirit left with him. I felt it before the news even reached us.”
Brooke also remarked on how the two never engaged in a “big fight,” adding to clarifying their relationship. No one will ever hear, understand, or hear it, she wrote in her words. My father told me that his heart was weighing both on his personal and professional life.
I made an offer to serve as a life raft for him. I assured him that I was with him. I pleaded with him to rest and take good care of himself.
