Sky Hogan, the widow of legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan, is grieving the loss of her father, Kirk, who passed away on Wednesday after a battle with colon cancer. This tragic event comes less than a year after the death of her husband, Hulk Hogan, who died from cardiac arrest in Florida last July.
Sky shared the heartbreaking news with her followers on social media, expressing how the past 12 months have 'gutted' her. 'My father Kirk passed away last night after a hard battle with colon cancer that became increasingly difficult this last year,' she wrote. She expressed gratitude to her father's wife, Robin, for her care during his illness.
'Losing my husband and my father in the same year has honestly gutted me. I’m comforted somewhat knowing my sisters and I got to be there with him, love him through it all, and make sure he never felt alone at the end,' she added.
Sky fondly remembered her father as a 'true outdoorsman' who loved hiking, camping, canoeing, and wildlife. 'He loved westerns and old kung fu movies too, and somehow made all of those things feel magical when we were kids. So many of my childhood memories are tied to the outdoors because of him,' she wrote.
Hulk Hogan's son, Nick, offered his condolences on the post, saying, 'I'm so sorry Sky. We all loved him very much and will miss him deeply.'
Sky, 47, was married to Hulk Hogan for nearly two years before his death. They wed in Clearwater, Florida in September 2023. Following her husband's passing, she had said, 'I wasn't ready for this…and my heart is in pieces. He had been dealing with some health issues, but I truly believed we would overcome them.'
