Brooke Hogan shared an emotional tribute to father Hulk Hogan following his death at 71, clarifying their estranged relationship and revealing private struggles.

Hulk Hogan didn’t meet his daughter Brooke’s twins amid their fractured relationship prior to his death. Brooke’s husband, Steven Oleksy, told People in an interview published on Friday, August 1, that Hulk had “no interest” in meeting the couple’s five-month-old twins Oliver Andrew and Molly Genes.

Steven Oleksy, who is married to Hulk’s daughter, Brooke Hogan, recently claimed that Hulk, who had passed away on July 24, had “no interest” in meeting his twin grandchildren. Olesky stayed in contact with Hulk in case he ever wanted to mend the estranged relationship, and even messaged him a few weeks after he and Brooke welcomed their twins.
