On what would have been the professional wrestler’s 72nd birthday, Hulk Hogan’s first wife paid tribute to him on Monday.
Hulkster and I in 1981 Terry, happy birthday! I really miss and adore you.Linda Hogan shared a 46-year-old picture of the two of them together on Instagram.
Hogan, whose real name was Terry Gene Bollea, passed away in his Florida home on July 24 due to a heart attack. In 1983, he wed Linda Claridge. In 2009, the couple got divorced.
From 2005 to 2007, their son and daughter costarred on the reality TV program Hogan Knows Best. At the time of his death, Hogan was still living with his third wife, Sky Daily, after getting married twice more.
After her ex-husband passed away, Linda Hogan posted on Instagram that she was grieving for him.
“It’s really getting to me,” she wrote. Hulkster didn’t love me as much as I did.
The tall wrestler may have moved on, but according to his first wife, 65, she wasn’t as lucky.
My man was you. On July 19, she wrote, “The only man for me.”
When Hogan passed away, many people hailed him as a hero. He was described as a fantastic man by President Trump.
Hogan received thunderous applause when he appeared at the Republican National Committee meeting in July 2024.
In 2015, he was suspended from the WWE Hall of Fame due to racial remarks, a publicly contested sex video scandal, and his ugly divorce from Linda Hogan. In 2018, he was reinstated.
