Linda Hogan Reflects on “Good Old Days” With Hulk Hogan Days Before His Death

Just four days before the passing of wrestling icon Hulk Hogan, his ex-wife Linda Hogan shared a touching tribute to their past. The former couple, who were married for 26 years before divorcing in 2009, share two children—Brooke and Nick Hogan.

On July 20, Linda posted a throwback photo of herself and Hulk to Instagram. The image captured a moment from their long relationship, and her simple caption read, “The good old days!”

Though the post was brief, it struck a chord with fans who remembered the couple from the peak of Hulk’s wrestling fame and their reality show, Hogan Knows Best.

Their marriage, once considered one of wrestling’s most high-profile unions, ended after years of public and private struggles. However, the photo suggests that Linda still holds onto memories of their earlier, happier times.

Hulk Hogan, born Terry Bollea, passed away on July 24 at age 71 due to cardiac arrest in his Florida home. His death has prompted tributes from fans, fellow wrestlers, and close friends—including former U.S. President Donald Trump.

Linda has not posted a statement since Hulk’s passing, but her earlier post now carries even deeper meaning.

Brooke and Nick Hogan, the couple’s children, have yet to release public tributes. In the past, they have spoken openly about their complex family dynamics and life under the public spotlight.

Though their marriage ended more than a decade ago, Linda’s nostalgic post stands as a quiet farewell to the man she once shared a life with—and as a reminder of the legacy they built together as a family during wrestling’s golden age.
