Hulk Hogan 'responds' after daughter Brooke claims she's been 'mentally and physically abused since childhood'

Hulk Hogan appears to have responded to his daughter Brooke claiming she had been 'verbally and mentally abused since childhood'.

Brooke took to social media to share her alleged abuse and why she no longer speaks to her parents, including ex-WWE wrestler Hogan, who was 'shaken' when he returned to the wrestling promotion.

The 36-year-old, who took her husband and former professional ice hockey player Steven Oleksy's last name, posted a lengthy message on Instagram, detailing how a 'vicious' pattern has robbed her of any confidence.

She wrote: "Sadly, it would frequently turn physical. And sometimes it’s not by the person you would assume, abuse comes in all shapes and sizes.

"This vicious pattern has robbed me of any sense of self-esteem or confidence I’ve trained to pretend to have."

Brooke added: "Up until adulthood, I've received berating and vile text messages, with unbelievably hurtful words said to me that cannot be forgotten.

"I've been ASKED to defend poor behaviour to the public and have done so out of love.

"Only to find I was misinformed, manipulated, and lied to. Still to this day I face constant ridicule for those poor decisions of others.

"I've watched others benefit financially off my suffering and embarrassment caused by their selfish behaviour. While it caused my life to crumble, I continued to stay strong and silent."

Hogan, 71, has seemingly responded to his daughter's allegations.

He posted a video of himself and his new wife Sky Daily Hogan, eating popcorn, accompanied with the caption: "Getting ready for the new HH TV show coming soon!"

While there is no reference of Brooke's allegations, the duo appear to be recreating the famous meme of Michael Jackson eating popcorn in the cinema, which is commonly used whenever there is drama involved.

Brooke's claim comes after Hogan's ex-wife Linda branded him a 'complete liar' and a 'sex addict' while claiming the family has been left in the 'worse mess' after their daughter cut both parents out of her life.
