Linda Hogan recently claimed that she and her daughter Brooke havent talked in almost eight years, and believed Brookes falling-out with Hulk Hogan was the reason for that,t and now Brooke Hogan has finally shared her side of the story, revealing some troubling details about her
Brooke Hogan took to her Instagram and revealed that she tried to ignore family problems for years to find peace. However, she held herself back in her music and TV career to avoid the negativity that comes with her familys name. She stayed quiet for a long time, but now that she has her own family, she realizes the impact goes beyond just her.
A recent video of her mother caught peoples attention, and they started sending it to Brooke. This made her decide to speak out. She said the behavior in the video was nothing compared to what she had seen growing up. She also said her mother has made false claims before and then deleted them.
Even with everything, she feels sympathy for her mother and the pain she has been through. But Brooke believes that even if you cant control how others treat you, you can control how you treat people.
Brooke Hogan said she has ignored many lies about her over the years and never spoke out. Even now, she doesnt want to reveal everything to protect people who should have protected her. She explained that she cut ties with both of her parents for separate reasons. Her issues with her mother are not because of her father, and her issues with her father are not because of her mother. The same goes for his second and third wife. Each decision was based on how they treated her.
Brooke Hogan stated that she has been verbally and mentally abused since childhood, with the mistreatment often turning physical. She noted that abuse can come from unexpected sources and in various forms. This cycle of mistreatment severely damaged her self-esteem, leaving her feeling like she had to pretend to be confident.
Throughout her life, Brooke Hogan said she received hurtful text messages and public insults. She was pressured to defend bad behavior in public and did so out of love, only to later realize she was being manipulated and lied to. She has been judged for things she didnt do, while others made money off her suffering and embarrassment. She stayed strong even when her own life was falling apart.
Brooke forgave many betrayals, things that hurt her career, personal life, and trust. But she was treated like a pawn, made to feel unimportant and unintelligent. She believes no child or person should go through that.
Hogan also talked about the pain of being mistreated, staying silent, and watching people enable toxic behavior. Many people saw what she went through but didnt stand up for her. Instead, they stayed close to her family for money, status, or benefits. Others might have been afraid of getting involved.
Even though she wanted to see the good in her family, Hogan kept getting disrespected. She hoped for a normal, loving family, but it never happened. Every time she tried to help, she felt like she was being dragged down. After setting boundaries that were ignored, she reached her breaking point.
Now as an adult with a husband and two kids, Brooke Hogan is choosing to move forward. She has gone to therapy, done the work, and is breaking the cycle of dysfunction. She still loves her family, and it wasnt easy to cut ties. But their actions hurt her more than their absence.
Brooke Hogan hopes that one day, they will understand why she stayed quiet for so long and never shared too many details to protect them. She also revealed that, years ago, she worked as a waitress to build her own business without financial help from anyone.
Brooke believes its important to break toxic family cycles. Her focus now is on her husband, children, and faith. She has given her family many chances, but she has finally had enough.
Hogan wont allow false stories about her to continue. While she chooses peace, she warned that her kindness and silence should not be mistaken for weakness. There are bigger problems in the world, families struggling to survive, while her own family had many blessings but still caused harm.
In the end, Brooke said life is precious. She wants to focus on what truly mattersher children and the life she worked hard to create. She asked people to let her live in peace without adding more negativity.
At the end of the day, Brooke Hogan did what she felt was right for her own mental peace and for the well-being of her family and many fans will likely agree with her decision to cut ties with her family in the end.
