Hulk Hogan’s daughter raises suspicion
Hulk Hogan died on July 24 at his home in Florida. A week after the death, new details emerged about the declining health of the WWE star. Hogan had been privately battling cancer. Hogan suffered from Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), a type of cancer that affects white blood cells called lymphocytes, as per documents obtained by Us Weekly.
Now, Brooke has confessed that she has many lingering questions around the death of her father, with whom she was estranged in the last years of his life. She spoke about her father’s death when she joined the YouTube show, Bubba the Love Sponge Show, for a guest spot.
“I do think it’s weird that no autopsy was performed, because yes, you can have a heart attack but what was the reason for the heart attack is the question. Because he was up and doing breathing exercises and stuff. That means that the surgery on his heart was a success and it was working,” the 37-year-old told the host about her father.
During the conversation, Brooke shared she hadn’t known about the cancer diagnosis and wondered how the information could have been missed over the years when Hulk underwent multiple surgeries.
She shared, “That's what has me puzzled because they're saying, ‘Oh, he had leukemia.’ And I saw his blood work every time. One doctor, I quote, said his blood is like a 25-year-old’s. I mean, he took the most care of his body. He was going to an anti-aging specialist and also, just being through all the surgeries, you have to do a blood panel before any major surgery. How did nobody catch a high white blood cell count? That's what bothers me the most. And I'm like, we don't have cancer that runs in our family. It just seems weird.”
