The wrestling world is abuzz with controversy after reports emerged that Brooke Hogan, daughter of WWE icon Hulk Hogan, was deliberately excluded from her father's funeral plans.
Insiders claim the 35-year-old singer and reality TV star wasn't consulted about arrangements for the memorial service, despite being Hulk's eldest child. This shocking snub has fuelled speculation about an ongoing family feud that may have reached breaking point.
A Family Divided
Sources close to the Hogan family suggest tensions have been simmering for years, with Brooke's relationship with her famous father becoming increasingly strained. The exclusion from funeral preparations appears to be the latest chapter in this painful family drama.
"It's heartbreaking to see," one family friend revealed. "Brooke was always daddy's little girl growing up. For her to be left out of such an important moment suggests things have deteriorated badly."
The Backstory
The Hogan family's troubles became public knowledge during Hulk's high-profile divorce from Brooke's mother, Linda. The wrestling legend's subsequent relationships and legal battles have reportedly created divisions within the family.
Brooke, who rose to fame alongside her father on their reality show "Hogan Knows Best," has maintained a relatively low profile in recent years while pursuing her music career.
Industry Reaction
WWE colleagues have expressed surprise at the news, with several stars taking to social media to share their support for Brooke. "Family should come first, always," tweeted one former wrestler, while others called for reconciliation.
The funeral arrangements themselves remain private, with Hulk Hogan's representatives declining to comment on what they describe as "a personal family matter."
As the wrestling community mourns one of its greatest icons, attention has turned to this painful family rift that shows no signs of healing.
