Hulk Hogan's Daughter Causes Stir With New Swimsuit Photo

Hulk Hogan's daughter, Brooke, is still mourning the sudden loss of her father. The legendary wrestler passed away on July 24, 2025.

On Wednesday night, Brooke Hogan took to her Instagram page, posting a swimsuit photo as she remembered her dad.

"Needed some time with my thoughts, my daddy and the ocean he loved so much. Every wave hit my heart like a memory that felt like it was yesterday. The waves carried the bass in his voice, the salt water felt like his hugs. The smell of the ocean smelled like so many days on the boat we spent together. I remember him whisking me across the surf like King Triton holding his Little Mermaid... if I could breathe underwater, I'd spend forever under the sea if it meant being that much closer to him," she wrote.

"The tears were endless today. 🌊."

But some took issue with the photo choice.

Fans criticize Brooke Hogan for sharing swimsuit photo in remembrance post

Some fans took issue with Brooke Hogan's photo choice.

"Post about your dad and the first thing you show us is your (expletive)???? Ok," one fan wrote.

"I like how this post was about her father and the first thing she proceeds to show us is her arse," one added.

"Don't understand why u feel the need to show ur ARSE on the first slide of a post that's ultimately about ur father. It actually says a lot about u," another fan added.

"A tribute to hogan yet the first picture is to (expletive)," one fan added.

It was an interesting photo, for sure, but Brooke Hogan is allowed to mourn her dad however she pleases.

If she feels closer to him at the beach, then no one should be judging that.
