Hulk Hogan showed “no interest” in meeting his daughter Brooke Hogan’s twins amid their years-long estrangement, her husband, Steven Oleksy, claimed.
The former NHL player revealed that he stayed in contact with Hulk in case the pair ever wanted to mend their relationship, but his efforts were to no avail, he told People in an interview published Friday.
He alleged that he reached out to his father-in-law “about a month and a half after” his twins were born in January — one of whom is named after the late WWE star.
“I sent text messages once again to kind of gauge where he was at, but there was no interest.”
Oleksy, 39, also told the outlet that Brooke’s brother, Nick, offered to bring Hulk to their house to meet the twins, but it never came to fruition.
As we previously reported, Hulk died on July 24 after suffering from cardiac arrest. He also secretly battled leukemia before his death.
Brooke, 37, and Hulk were estranged in the years leading up to his shocking death. According to insiders, their last conversation took place in September 2023 — around the time the ex-wrestler tied the knot with his wife, Sky Daily.
However, in her tribute to her dad, Brooke touched on their estrangement, saying that they “never had a ‘big fight.’”
“My father and I never ‘fought.’ It was a series of private phone calls no one will ever hear know or understand,” she said.
She also claimed that after she and Oleksy moved to Florida to be closer to him, Hulk pushed her away while he battled his health issues in private.
Most recently, it was reported that Brooke won’t be getting any part of her dad’s massive estate.
Sources told TMZ that Brooke asked to be removed from her dad’s will because she didn’t trust those around him.
However, her husband shared that he felt Brooke wanted to be excluded from her dad’s will because she wanted to uphold “her dad’s best interests even after his death.”
“That money does not represent accomplishments in the ring — the majority of it came at the expense of my wife’s dignity. It was built on hurtful comments about her and her past relationship, which caused pain not only to her, but to many other families,” said Oleksy, 39.
The NHL star was referring to the alleged racial slurs Hulk, born Terry Gene Bollea, called Brooke’s former boyfriend in audio from his sex tape that was leaked by Gawker in 2012.
Hulk filed a lawsuit against Gawker the following year and was awarded $31 million dollars in a settlement, bankrupting the now-defunct news outlet.
