Hulk Hogan's Daughter Reverses Course on Death Conspiracy Theories
SHOCKING TWIST IN HULK HOGAN'S DEATH: DAUGHTER BROOKE BACKTRACKS ON "FOUL PLAY" CLAIMS
The drama surrounding Hulk Hogan's death has taken a shocking turn, as his estranged daughter Brooke has made a dramatic U-turn on her claims of "foul play." The 36-year-old social media influencer had sparked outrage with her conspiracy theories about the WWE icon's passing, but it seems she's now walking back her statements.
Hulk Hogan, whose real name was Terry Bollea, died on July 24 from a cardiac arrest, according to the Florida medical examiner's office. The 71-year-old wrestling legend had been battling leukemia and atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm, prior to his passing.
But Brooke, who has been open about her complicated relationship with her father in the past, seemed to suggest that something fishy was going on. She shared a cryptic article by Hulk Hogan's friend Bubba the Love Sponge, which raised questions about the quick cremation of Hogan's body without an autopsy.
However, it appears Brooke has now had a change of heart. In a series of Instagram posts, she attempted to clarify her earlier statements and distance herself from the conspiracy theories. "Everyone stop trying to say Sky 'shaded me'," she wrote, referring to her father's ex-wife Sky Daily. "I don't feel like she did at all... I was told he was cremated without an autopsy which of course freaked me out - but he has not been cremated and she's doing the research."
But what's behind Brooke's sudden about-face? Sources close to the family suggest that Sky, who married Hogan in 2023, has been working tirelessly to clear up any misconceptions surrounding her husband's death. And it seems Brooke may have finally come around to seeing things from Sky's perspective.
In a surprising twist, Brooke revealed on Instagram that Hogan's body is yet to be cremated, thanks to Sky's efforts to delay the process and potentially facilitate an autopsy. "I'm glad to see that my dad has not been cremated and that Sky is waiting because of family questions," she wrote. "With all of the speculation and uncertainty of my dad's death, I want to personally offer to pay for an autopsy if that's what it takes to get it done."
But it seems Brooke may be too little, too late. Officials have reportedly been given no indication that Sky is seeking an autopsy report at this moment in time. And Bubba the Love Sponge's outlandish claims, which sparked the whole controversy, have been largely debunked by experts.
The Clearwater Police Department attempted to squash any outlandish theories about Hogan's death as they said: "As previously stated, there are no signs of foul play or anything suspicious about the death." The report said the cause of death was "natural," but it seems the family is still seeking answers.
In a bizarre turn of events, Bubba's allegations included claims that Hogan's body had already been cremated, and that someone could have injected something into the wrestler's dialysis port while he slept to induce a heart attack. He also questioned why an autopsy wasn't carried out.
But what do we really know about Hogan's final days? The Tampa Bay Times revealed that paramedics gave Hogan drugs that can treat excessive levels of potassium, a sign of kidney failure, which can lead to cardiac arrest. They also administered two milligrams of Narcan, the drug that can quickly reverse opioid overdoses - but there was no indication that Hogan had overdosed.
The Pinellas County Medical Examiner did not perform an autopsy on Hogan because his death was not deemed suspicious. However, it seems Sky's efforts to delay the cremation may have sparked hopes of a potential autopsy being conducted after all.
In a bizarre aftermath to this whole drama, Brooke revealed on Instagram that she'd be willing to pay for an autopsy if it would bring her family some closure. "My dad's dignity and legacy deserves it," she wrote. But will it be too little, too late?
UPDATE: It appears Hogan's widow has halted plans to move forward with the cremation in order to allow Brooke to have an autopsy conducted amid the speculation shrouding Hogan's passing.
In a bizarre twist, it seems Sky is now working closely with Brooke to get answers about her husband's death. But will they be able to put this drama behind them and focus on celebrating the life of the wrestling legend?
TheScholarlyNote.com reported earlier that Hulk Hogan's daughter Brooke was not the only one who had raised eyebrows with their reactions to his passing. Sky Daily, Hogan's ex-wife, had initially hit back at Brooke's conspiracy theories in a statement.
"I want to address the misleading media stories created by faceless AI accounts and people not close enough to truly know what was happening," she said. "Let's be patient as news continues to trickle out about Hulk's fatal heart attack."
But it seems Sky has now taken a different approach, working closely with Brooke to get answers about Hogan's death.
