Hulk Hogan’s ex-wife Linda has branded her daughter Brooke a ‘narcissist’ in the latest twist in their bitter family feud.

Linda recently shared a distressing video online where she was seen crying uncontrollably while accusing a former WWE wrestler of being a ‘complete liar’ and a ‘sex addict’.

She also accused Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, of leaving their family ‘in the worst mess’ after Brooke cut both of her parents out of her life.

Brooke responded in a stunning Instagram rant on Thursday, where she insisted her father was not the only reason behind the shocking family divide.

In response, Linda posted a detailed statement on her Facebook page, refuting any claims of abusing her daughter and alleging that she was the one who was attacked.

Expressing her thoughts, Linda stated, ‘It appears that narcissism is ingrained in this family. Brooke exhibits narcissistic traits just like her father… spreading falsehoods to everyone, and somehow I am expected to defend my truth against that.’

‘I’m not about to do that… it seems to me that she doesn’t want the truth being revealed to her new husband and his family about who she was and 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.

‘They had cell phones. She could’ve posted horrible things about me back when all of this was supposedly happening, but she didn’t because nothing was happening, but when she took her dad’s side after the divorce and wrote the wonderful Mom song, and went to all the tabloids because Terry was 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 .. that none of the stuff ever happened. 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. 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. 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.’

Hogan – real name Terry Bollea – and Linda were married for 26 years between 1983 and 2009. They have two children together – Brooke, 36, and Nick, 34.

Hogan remarried in 2010 when he tied the knot with Jennifer McDaniel in 2010, but they split 11 years later. He married his third wife, Sky Daily, in 2023, in a ceremony that Brooke did not attend. 

Linda has not remarried since her divorce from Hogan. Her video on Wednesday saw her hit out at Hogan for preventing her from having a relationship with Brooke, who welcomed twins with her ice hockey husband Steven Olesky in January.

‘It’s been 15 however long years since I left Hulk Hogan and my family is the worst mess,’ a tearful Linda explained.

‘Brooke doesn’t talk to us. She had twins, she got married [and] she didn’t tell us.

‘She had a huge fight with Terry. I don’t know how that reflected onto me. But she cut me out too. I haven’t talked to her for seven years – almost eight years now.’ 

Brooke gave her own version of events on Thursday, claiming she was ‘verbally and mentally abused’ during her childhood.

Addressing her decision to cut ties with her mother and father, Brooke wrote: ‘I have completely separate reasons for going no contact with each of my parents. No contact with my Mom has nothing to do with my Dad, and no contact with my Father has nothing to do with my Mother. 

‘This also pertains to my dad’s second and third, now current wife. This decision was made based purely on how they have each dealt with me directly my entire life.’

She added: ‘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.’

Continuing her emotional statement, Brooke claimed she had tried to repair her relationship with her parents, but had finally decided that she needed to move on without them in her life.

‘I so badly wanted to see good in them, protect, help, and start anew – just to be disrespected again and again,’ she wrote. ‘I longed for a normal family, but it never came to fruition. 

‘I’ve repeatedly held my hand out to help them, only to have them pull me into the darkness with them. I’ve set boundaries that were not respected, and at this point, I can truly do no more.’
