Hulk Hogan’s daughter revealed the WWE icon “hated the morbidity of funerals,” and didn’t want one for himself, as she celebrated her father’s life at one of his favorite places – away from Tuesday’s service in Florida.
Hulk Hogan’s estranged daughter Brooke skipped the WWE icon’s funeral service in Florida on Tuesday and opted to privately celebrate her father’s life at one of his favorite places.
“My father hated the morbidity of funerals. He didn’t want one,” Hogan wrote on Instagram. “Although I know people grieve in many ways – and I’m so grateful for all celebrations and events organized to honor him.”
“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 said.
Brooke, who is married to former NHL defenseman Steve Olesky, honored Hogan alongside her infant twins at the beach, the place where she says she felt “the closest to him.”
“The only thing missing today was him in is pop up lawn chair watching the waves… and the sunset,” she captioned the post.
The 37-year-old has been estranged from her father in recent years, but shared photos of her children and husband splashing in the “same salty waters” the wrestling legend loved.
