Brooke Hogan has threatened legal action against her late dad Hulk Hogan’s inner circle, alleging they’re spreading lies about her.
The wrestling legend’s only daughter addressed reports about her estrangement from her dad on TMZ Live on Wednesday, blasting what she called blatantly false information being spread about her.
“Whatever representative from that camp that continues to spew these lies, if they want to keep going, grab your best hold, grab your best lawyers because I’m ready to go,” Brooke said. “Because I’m done with it. I’m done, this is ridiculous. I know too much. I’ve been through too much, I’m not to be played with. I’m done, so it better stop.”
“This is ridiculous that it’s gone to this point of this war of words, and that’s why I’m here with you to put it to rest,” she continued. “My dad has finally been put to rest. Leave him alone, leave me alone and let the poor man go to heaven, and just end it. Stop coming after me. I’m not the one you want to come after.”
Brooke, 37, stressed that she was not looking to get any money after her dad’s death and was just fine not being in his will.
“I just know how my family is,” she explained. “And I’ve seen how certain members of my family go after money. And I see how they fight over money, and how they turn on each other over money. And I said, if and when my dad dies, this is going to be — pardon my French — a s—t show. And I want no part of it.”
Brooke insisted that she never relied on Hulk financially.
“I have my own job, my husband has a job, we do not have any money coming in from my father since I was 18 years old,” she said. “Everybody else relied on him for a paycheck, and now that golden goose is gone.”
“So I don’t know if I’m their emotional, guilty punching bag, or if they are afraid of what I know — because I know a lot that I don’t talk about,” she continued. “I know a lot. It’s pathetic and it’s disgusting, to be honest.”
Brooke clarified the relationship with her father, noting they were “very, very close.”
“We’ve been through a lot,” she said. “I’ve forgiven a lot. I’ve been by his side through everything.”
She shot down rumors she returned gifts from him and that he was “begging” her for forgiveness before he died.
“Me and my dad have had multiple conversations where he said sorry,” she said. “He never said specifically for what.”
“Me and my dad were always respectful towards each other, always kind and loving towards each other,” she added.
Hulk died on July 24 of a heart attack at 71 years old.
Brooke explained why she didn’t attend his funeral in Florida on Tuesday, instead choosing to privately honor him with a beach outing with husband Steven Oleksy and their 6-month-old twins, Oliver and Molly.
“My father hated the morbidity of funerals. He didn’t want one,” she claimed in an Instagram post.
“And although I know people grieve in many ways — and I’m so grateful for all celebrations and events organized to honor him, as his daughter, I had to make my own decision to honor him the best and most genuine way I knew how…privately…the way that made me feel the closest to him,” she added.
