Hulk Hogan's daughter has addressed the reports that she wasn't in her father's will.

On July 24, news broke that the WWE legend had died at the age of 71. It was later revealed that Hogan's cause of death was a heart attack.

He's believed to have undergone heart surgery in the weeks leading up to his death.

Hogan is survived by his two kids: Brooke, 37, and 35-year-old son Nick. He shared only two children with ex-wife Linda Hogan whom he was married to from 1983 to 2009.

His third wife, Sky Daily, tied the knot with the wrestling star back in 2023.

As of last month, Hogan was said to have an estimated net worth of $25 million (as per Celebrity Net Worth), but Brooke won't get a dime of this.

This is because she asked to be removed from her father's will before his death.

Explaining why she did this, Brooke said on the Bubba the Love Sponge Show that she didn't want to end up embroiled in any family feuds regarding Hogan's fortune and that she was 'scared' of this happening after he died.

Recalling the moment she texted Hogan's assistant to remove her from the will, Brooke said she was 'sobbing'.

"I just said, take me off everything, I don’t want to be a part of it," she added.

She added that her stance on money changed when she became pregnant with her twins, Oliver Andrew and Molly Gene, who she welcomed earlier this year. Brooke shares her babies with husband Steve Oleksy.

"I believe my wife upheld her dad’s best interests even after his death, mustering up all the courage and kindness she could despite still being very hurt,” Oleksy, 39, said to US Weekly.

He added: "That money does not represent accomplishments in the ring — the majority of it came at the expense of my wife’s dignity. It was built on hurtful comments about her and her past relationship, which caused pain not only to her, but to many other families."

Brooke's radio interview comes after she was forced to address why she hadn't attended Hogan's WWE tributes alongside her brother.

Following his death, WWE paid their respects to Hogan on Friday Night SmackDown and Monday Night Raw with a 10-bell salute.

Speaking out on her absence, Brooke penned on Instagram: "For those of you giving me crap for not attending my dad's tributes, @wwe did not extend an invite."

WWE were approached for comment at the time.
