Hulk Hogan’s Family Feud: Brooke Hogan’s Abuse Claims and Linda’s Counterattack
A Family in Turmoil
The Hogan family is once again making headlines, but this time, it’s not for their wrestling legacy or reality TV escapades. Instead, a deeply personal and painful war of words has erupted between Brooke Hogan, her mother Linda Hogan, and, indirectly, her father, WWE legend Hulk Hogan. The latest family drama reveals deep-seated tensions, accusations of abuse, and a complete breakdown of relationships within the once-glamorous household.
Brooke Hogan Speaks Out
On March 26, Brooke Hogan took to Instagram to address her fractured relationship with her parents, particularly her mother, Linda. In her post, she declared that she has chosen to have “no contact” with either of them for “completely separate reasons.” Her claims were as explosive as they were heartbreaking, alleging years of mental and verbal abuse, sometimes escalating into physical violence.
“I have been EXTREMELY verbally and mentally abused since childhood,” Brooke wrote. “Sadly, it would frequently turn physical. And sometimes it’s not by the person you would assume—abuse comes in all shapes and sizes.”
While she did not specify which parent was responsible for the alleged physical abuse, her words painted a picture of a toxic environment. Brooke also mentioned enduring “berating and vile text messages” into adulthood, along with being pressured to publicly defend “poor behavior” from a family member, only to later realize she had been manipulated and misled.
Linda Hogan Fires Back
Linda Hogan wasted no time in responding to her daughter’s claims. In a lengthy Facebook post on March 28, she dismissed Brooke’s allegations, calling her daughter a “narcissist just like her dad.” Linda accused Brooke of spreading lies for attention and financial gain, writing, “Brooke is a narcissist just like her dad… going out… spewing lies to everyone and I’m supposed to defend my truth against that.”

This statement marks yet another public family dispute, adding fuel to an already fiery situation. Linda’s choice of words also highlights the longstanding tension between her and her ex-husband, Hulk Hogan, suggesting that the fractures within the family are not just between mother and daughter but extend to all corners of the Hogan clan.
Hulk Hogan’s Controversial Past
While Hulk Hogan has not directly commented on this latest drama, his past controversies have contributed to the family’s turmoil. In 2015, a leaked tape exposed racist remarks he had made in reference to Brooke’s dating life. The fallout led to his temporary exile from WWE, and while he later apologized, the scandal permanently tainted his reputation.
At the time, Brooke stood by her father, but in her latest revelations, she alluded to being manipulated into defending behavior she did not fully understand. Her remarks suggest that the pain of that period still lingers, further straining the father-daughter relationship.
The Bigger Picture: A Family Beyond Repair?
Public feuds within celebrity families are nothing new, but the Hogan family’s ongoing rift appears particularly deep-rooted. With Brooke severing ties, Linda launching counterattacks, and Hulk’s past mistakes looming large, reconciliation seems increasingly unlikely.
Brooke insists that despite everything, she still loves her parents, but love alone may not be enough to heal wounds that have festered for decades. As their public battle continues, the world watches to see if there will ever be a resolution—or if this is just another chapter in a saga of pain, betrayal, and estrangement.
