The world of professional wrestling has lost a true giant. Hulk Hogan, real name Terry Gene Bollea, has passed away at the age of 71. For anyone who grew up watching wrestling in the ’80s, ’90s, or even the early 2000s, this one hits hard. Hogan wasn’t just a superstar, he was wrestling.
Legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan is survived by his wife Sky Daily, his two children Brooke and Nick, and a growing family that includes newborn grandchildren.
Hogan married Sky, a certified yoga instructor, in September 2023. The couple had been together during his final years, with reports stating she was present at the time of his passing. While Sky maintained a relatively private life, she was often seen supporting Hogan at public events and during his recovery after surgery.
From his earlier marriage to Linda Claridge (1983–2009), Hogan had two children who became celebrities in their own right. Brooke Hogan, born in 1988, pursued a music career and gained fame through the reality show Hogan Knows Best. She welcomed twins in January 2025, making Hulk Hogan a grandfather just months before his death.
Nick Hogan, born in 1990, also featured on the show and is known for his involvement in motorsports and a controversial legal case from the 2000s.
Hogan also had stepchildren through Sky’s previous relationships, although their identities remain private. With the death of his brother Allan Bollea in 1986 and no other known siblings, Hogan’s passing marks the end of a family chapter—one as bold and public as the man himself.
