WWE legend Hulk Hogan amassed a huge fortune during his career, but he left none of it to his daughter when he died of a heart attack on July 24, 2025, at age 71.
The late wrestler was a father to Brooke and son Nick Hogan, whom he shared with his ex-wife, Linda Hogan, but his relationship with his daughter was strained, and they weren't on speaking terms at the time of his death.
Hulk was reportedly worth $25 million when he died, but in the days after his passing, it was revealed that his probate estate contained about $5 million in assets.
In court documents, Nick was named co-personal representative of Hulk's estate, and the sole beneficiary, inheriting the entire $5 million fortune.
Brooke was not listed as a beneficiary, but it was a decision she made herself in 2023 following their estrangement, something she now regrets.

Brooke Hogan, 37

After graduating from high school at 16, Brooke focused on her singing career and debuted her single "Everything to Me" in 2004. She went on tour with big acts such as Hilary Duff and the Backstreet Boys.
Hulk was heavily featured in her documentary (Inside) Out: Hulk Hogan, Stage Dad, to help promote her album, and later came the popular VH1 series, Hogan Knows Best.
In 2006, Brooke made her WWE debut and featured as a personality in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. Hulk Knows Best was canceled in 2007 due to some of its featured topics being controversial; however, Brooke got her own spinoff series called Brooke Knows Best.

"It is so much fun," she told Page Six about being a mom. "There's something very special about twins, and I just feel like that was if God gave me payback for any hardships I went through in my life, it was my husband and my kids."

"I've got new music out — I just got back with my label," she told the outlet, adding: "We've got a whole album loaded and ready to rock, and we've been steadily releasing music."
Nick Hogan, 35

Nick has had several run-ins with the law, including multiple speeding tickets. In 2007, he was involved in a serious car crash, which left his friend John Graziano, who was a passenger in the vehicle, with brain damage.
Nick pleaded no contest after he was charged with felony reckless driving and sentenced to eight months in jail. He served six months and was put on probation for several years, as well as having a suspended driver's license.

In 2023, he was arrested for allegedly driving under the influence and hitting three police vehicles. He got a $1000 fine, a year of probation, and had to be regularly monitored for alcohol consumption.
Nick was with model Bre Tiesi from 2008 to 2015, and then he dated content creator Brit Manuela from 2017 to 2018. In 2019, he began dating Tana Lea, and the pair married in January 2025.
