Hulk Hogan, 69, Gets Engaged to Yoga Instructor Who Is Only 10 Years Older than His Daughter
- WWE wrestling champion Hulk Hogan has recently announced the exciting news that he popped the question to his girlfriend.
- Hogan was married twice before and welcomed children with his previous wife, too.
- While some fans were happy for the former wrestler, others criticized the 69-year-old for his proposal.
Hulk Hogan is famous for being a WWE wrestling legend. While his sporting career has been successful, the former wrestling champion has not always experienced success in his relationships.
The wrestler was married twice and welcomed children with his previous wife, but neither of those relationships worked out. Now, at 69, he gives love another chance with his new beau.
Hogan and his fiancée, Sky Daily, have been dating for over a year after Hogan's best friend, Corin Nemec, and his wife, Sabrina Nova, introduced the pair at a party. Nova then insisted that Hogan call Daily after the party.
As Hogan made a speech at Nemec and Nova's wedding recently, he revealed that despite his nerves, he had proposed to Daily in a Tampa restaurant just three days before his best friend's wedding. He joked that Daily was crazy enough to agree to marry him.
The former wrestling champion said that his yoga instructor fiancée, who is ten years older than his daughter, has three children. Despite their age and having two of his own children, Hogan says he fell in love with Daily's children, too.
Was Hulk Hogan Married Before, and Who Are His Children?
Hogan was previously married to Linda Hogan from 1983 to 2009 and then to Jennifer McDaniel from 2010 to 2021. He welcomed two children, Brooke, 35, and Nick, 32, with his first wife and none with his second wife.

Hogan's previous relationship with McDaniel ended in divorce in 2021 after the couple had been married for almost eleven years. Hogan filed for divorce in October, and the couple's divorce was finalized later that year.
Similarly, Hogan's relationship with his first wife ended in divorce. However, his ex-wife remained civil toward him, saying:
"I still love him. He's the father of my children."

Hogan also had only amicable thoughts about his ex-wife, saying that when you had been married to someone for 23 years, you wished for the best. Unfortunately for them, their union did not end well, and they were torn apart.
While Hogan and his first wife were still married, they and their children appeared on a VH1 reality show called "Hogan Knows Best." The show ended in 2007 due to some issues with the Hogan family. After that, fans did not know much about Hogan's children.
However, just before the show ended, Nick was involved in a car accident in which he severely injured his passenger, who now suffers brain damage that requires full-time care. He was sentenced to eight months in county jail, 500 hours of community service, and his license was revoked for three years.
Nick admitted in court that not a day went by when he didn't think of his passenger, U.S. Marine John Graziano, and felt he would never be able to say sorry enough for what he had done.
After completing his sentences, Nick worked tirelessly to establish himself as a DJ. He has DJ'ed at various events and has even hosted some of his own over the years, like "Hogan's Beach Party," held at Tampa's Hard Rock Hotel in April 2020.
Away from work, Nick is in a relationship with Instagram model Tana Lea and seems happy. However, the young man suffered a health scare in January 2018, which led to him spending 12 hours in an emergency room. No further details were released, but his family said he "overdid it" with work.

Hogan's daughter, Brooke, also rose to fame after starring in the family reality show. She is now a singer, actress, and television personality. Her debut single, "Everything to Me," was released in July 2004.
By 2006, she had released her first album titled "Undiscovered." The lead single on the album, titled "About Us," reached the Billboard Charts' top 33 in August 2006.
Her last album was released in 2009 and is titled "The Redemption." And even though it's been a while since the album came out, she has consistently made music, releasing singles often. She also starred in a spinoff of her family reality show, "Brooke Knows Best," which ran for two seasons in 2008 and 2009.
Her acting credits include the Netflix show "Glow" and the "L.A. Slasher" film. Brooke currently runs an Airbnb design company and manages a clothing line when she is not in the studio making music.

Many people thought it was wrong of Hogan to propose to someone who was nearly as old as his children and even called it "sick." Another mused that Hogan may have been nervous to propose because he knew he would have to part with his money soon.

Some people thought that Daily looked young enough to be Hogan's granddaughter, and others said that at his age and being on his third marriage, he needed to start learning from his past mistakes.

Others thought the age gap between the two would be a problem and said that the reason Daily was marrying him was because she would soon have access to his money.
While many comments criticized Hogan, Daily also received a fair share of hate. Many people commented, saying she was a gold digger and that she was only after any money he had. Hogan has not responded to any of these comments. We wish Daily and Hogan nothing but love and happiness in their marriage.
