Hulk Hogan, whose latest foray into celebrity has been with his reality show ‘Hogan Knows Best’, got quite a surprise this weekend by a Florida reporter with the St. Petersburg Times. The reporter called Hogan for an interview and asked for a comment on his pending divorce. Hogan’s wife, Linda Marie Bollea, had filed papers back on Tuesday but apparently didn’t bother to tell her husband. So when the reporter asked Hulk he thanked him for the “great information” and hung up only to call back later and talk to the reporter some more about it:
“I’m kind of shocked,” he said. “You caught me off-guard. My wife has been in California for about three weeks. … Holy smokes. Wow, you just knocked the bottom out of me. … I just pulled over to the side of the road for five minutes to find out what was going here.”
Well that sucks for Hogan after 24 years to find out like that, but who calls back the reporter? The couple had been seen attending marriage counseling on their reality show, but I guess it didn’t work as well as was shown.

I am sitting here in Clearwater Florida. My son grew up a fan of Hulk Hogans, and we met his brother Fro and Terry at a local establishment recently. He is as nice a guy as you would ever want to meet and I personally think it stinks the way his ex Linda (my ex’s name also) would want to put this man down in any way.
Come on, this is Hulk Hogan!! He made a name in wrestling that I beleive no one will ever be able to pull off again. He supported this woman and his family with MILLIONS of DOLLARS!! He loves his family and it is just crazy, that anyone would want to hurt this great guy after a lifetime of love.
If anyone else out there feels this way, let me know. Maybe my own lifes experiences made me biased, but I don’t think so.
