Insiders told TMZ that she was overwhelmed with emotion while looking at the sunset and expressing how it reminded her of her late father, who would’ve enjoyed it.
Reps for Brooke, 37, weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.
Hulk died after suffering from cardiac arrest on July 24. He was 71.
Page Six exclusively revealed that the wrestling legend’s cause of death was a result of a heart attack.
According to the Pinellas County Forensic Science Center, he was secretly battling leukemia, though Brooke later questioned if Hulk actually had cancer.
“Being through all the surgeries, you have to do a blood panel before any major surgery,” she shared on the “Bubba The Love Sponge” radio show earlier this month.
“How did nobody catch a high white blood count? That’s what bothers me the most,” the influencer continued, adding she always reviewed her dad’s “blood work every time [he had surgery].’”
She shared that it was “weird that no autopsy was performed, because yes, you can have a heart attack; but what was the reason for the heart attack is the question,” adding, “To me, the no autopsy and the leukemia out of nowhere hits me as BS.”
TMZ reported that there were no odd suspicions around Hulk’s death.
Brooke later clarified that she didn’t believe foul play was involved, but wanted answers.
Following Hulk’s death, there were rumors that he and Brooke became estranged after the latter didn’t attend her father’s wedding to Sky Daily in September 2023.
At the time, Brooke took to her Instagram to share that she chose to distance herself from her family to start “focusing on people and things that heal [her] heart and align with [her] own personal beliefs, goals, and values.”
The former reality star also removed herself from Hulk’s will and opted out of attending his funeral services on Aug. 5.
Brooke, however, addressed feud rumors, telling her Instagram followers that she and the former athlete shared a “sacred, quiet bond” that had “never been broken.”
“We had a connection deeper than words, one that spanned lifetimes,” she wrote last month. “I am so grateful that I knew the real version of him. Not just the one the world viewed through a carefully curated lens.”
“My father and I never ‘fought,’” the mom of two continued. “It was a series of private phone calls no one will ever hear know or understand.”
Brooke explained that she and Oleksy relocated to Florida to be near Hulk, but he allegedly didn’t want them to see him suffer from his ongoing health issues.
“Everything started getting covered in a thick veil,” she wrote. “It was like there was a force field around him that I couldn’t get through.”
Later commenting on why she didn’t attend his funeral, Brooke wrote via Instagram, “My father hated the morbidity of funerals. He didn’t want one.”
“And although I know people grieve in many ways — and I’m so grateful for all celebrations and events organized to honor him,” she added. “As his daughter, I had to make my own decision to honor him the best and most genuine way I knew how…privately…the way that made me feel the closest to him.”
Brooke explained she honored Hulk with her family at the beach, saying the only thing missing was the WWE star “watching the waves … and the sunset.”
Hulk shared Brooke and his 35-year-old son, Nick, with his ex-wife Linda Hogan.
