Brooke Hogan doesn’t appear to see eye-to-eye with her brother Nick Hogan and his perception of their current relationship following the death of their father, Hulk Hogan, last year.
After Nick, 36, spoke about Brooke, 38, in an interview with TV Insider that was published on Friday, August 28, she responded with her own take.
“I’ve made a conscious choice to keep the details of my relationship with my brother private,” Brooke exclusively told Us later on Friday. “I’d appreciate the same courtesy in return. We are not in communication, and his characterization of our relationship does not reflect my experience.”
She added, “My privacy should not be mistaken for agreement.”
In the interview, Nick heaped praise on his sibling, telling the outlet, “I’m so proud of Brooke. I’m so excited for everything she has got going on.”
He continued, “She’s just a phenomenal interior decorator. She has got this business that she started and she just did a new TV show, Rock the Block, and she was fantastic on that.”
Nick claimed that he is “excited” for Brooke and the positive things she has going on in her life.
“This is just a really exciting time for her. She had twins. She got married,” Nick said. “We’re just really excited for everything that’s going on for her. I’m so proud of her and, you know, everybody’s doing really well. My mom [Linda Hogan] is doing great right now. My entire family has been so supportive of everything that we’re doing. So, we’re in a really good place.”
The siblings’ father Hulk died in July 2025 of acute myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, with leukemia CLL, a type of cancer that affects white blood cells, as an underlying contributor. He was 71.
Prior to his death, Brooke was estranged from her father for several years. She told Us in April that the severed connection with her dad had also impacted her relationship with her brother.
“The saddest thing about broken families is the siblings,” Brooke told Us at the time. “The siblings suffer the most because you’re always forced to take a side. Nick and I, even though we had the same parents, we had two very different upbringings and two very different experiences. That is one thing my parents always said: ‘You guys are siblings, you always have to have each other’s back.’ No matter what trouble my brother gets into, no matter what he does or who he is, that’s my brother.”
She added, “Even if we don’t talk — because I haven’t felt supported by him in times where I really needed to feel that, sometimes I feel like he saw the same things I did and wouldn’t be a united front, that’s the thing that hurts me the most — but my brother is a very kind person. He’s very smart. He loves animals. There’s just so many great things about him and so many things that I love.”
