Hulk Hogan’s Final Conversation With Daughter Brooke Revealed After His Death

WWE icon Hulk Hogan, who died of cardiac arrest at his Florida home on July 24, had one final emotional conversation with his estranged daughter Brooke Hogan just weeks before his passing. The two had been estranged since 2023, when Brooke skipped Hogan’s wedding to Sky Daily, but their last phone call offered a moment of connection.

According to reports, Brooke told her father she loved him and urged him to slow down due to his declining health. Hogan reportedly apologized, though he didn’t specify for what, and the two hadn’t spoken since.

“She’s grateful she got to say ‘I love you’… She’s at peace knowing she tried to fix things,” a source close to Brooke shared.

A Relationship Marked by Distance and Regret

Brooke’s husband, Steven Oleksy, had reportedly tried to mend the fractured relationship, but Hogan was said to be interested only on his own terms. Brooke had long expressed concern over her father’s health and career pace, especially following his intense spinal surgery in May.

“She didn’t think he should still be working so hard,” a source said.

Despite the tension, Brooke’s final words have brought her comfort in the wake of his death. She learned of Hogan’s passing through a text from her brother Nick Hogan, who informed Oleksy early Thursday morning.

Hogan’s Legacy and Sudden Death

Born Terry Bollea, Hulk Hogan was a global wrestling icon who helped define the golden era of WWE. He is survived by Sky Daily, his ex-wife Linda Hogan, and their children Brooke and Nick.

His reps confirmed the news with a statement:

“We are heartbroken. He was such a great human being and friend.”

Tributes have poured in from across the entertainment and sports world, including messages from Donald Trump, Triple H, and Jake Paul.
