Linda, 65, said the entire Hogan family is “devastated” about his passing, which is hitting her “so hard.”
“I loved Hulkster more than he loved me,” she wrote. “It hurt when he cheated. But he was sooo famous. I sort of u detstood [sic] but it was crushing. It hurt. I b😢ever got over him or started a real relationship w anyone .. I missed HIM!”
The “Hogan Knows Best” alum — who shared daughter Brooke, 37, and son Nick, 35, with Hulk — said she and the late WWE star “spent every minute together” while they were married from 1983 to 2009.
“I’ve known him since he was 28 yrs old! I was 22. I still love him,” she declared.
“Even tho I never spoke or saw him, Nick did .. and Nick would tell me things and vice versa. Just news about life,” the mom of two added.
“I still felt .. although broken .. we still were a family. It’s so hard to know he’s just gone. I tried to stay strong for Nick .. but I’m melting down now. It’s very sad. I love you Hulkster. You were my man. The only man for me. RIP.”
Last Thursday, Page Six confirmed that Hulk had died from an apparent cardiac arrest at his Clearwater, Fla., home. He was 71.
“Unfortunately, we must confirm that Terry Bollea, aka Hulk Hogan, passed away this morning. We are heartbroken. He was such a great human being and friend,” his team told us in a statement.
A source close to the Hogan family told the Daily Mail that Hulk knew he had a “weak heart” that was deteriorating.
“He was suffering from shortness of breath, got tired easily, had lost a lot of weight and was on oxygen,” the insider told the outlet last Friday.
With Hulk knowing his health was declining, he reportedly spent time trying to mend rifts with estranged loved ones — especially with his daughter, Brooke.
“He had a lot of scores to settle,” another source explained, adding that Hulk “didn’t want to leave anything unsaid.”
The insider said that “there was a little strain with his daughter and their relationship that had taken quite the emotional toll, but he always thought he would eventually be able to rectify that.”
Hulk is survived by his wife, Sky Daily, and his two kids.
