WWE legend Hulk Hogan and Linda Claridge tied the knot in 1983, two years after they met in a restaurant in Los Angeles. Big names like Vince McMahon and Andre The Giant witnessed their wedding. 

Hulk and Linda were among the most popular couples in the celebrity world. They were together for 24 years, but after all these years collapsed in a messy and public divorce. But even after a painful divorce, Linda kept the picture of Hulk Hogan with herself.

Almost a decade ago, Linda Hogan appeared on a show and talked about her current life. During the interview, a segment came where the host asked her about the picture of Hulk Hogan in her house.

To this, Linda confidently replied that even though they went through an ugly divorce, she and Hulk were married for 24 years. And, the divorce doesn’t change the fact that they have some amazing memories together. 

Linda on the time she shared with Hulk 

During the interview, Linda said, “We had a great relationship I mean for 24 years we rocked and rolled, we had everything we had jets, money, cars, trips, travel….. you know kids, field trips you know….. I mean……I had it all, and it was a heck of a lifestyle and the Hulkster was a heck of a husband”

Later, she seemed to remember the time when she parted ways from her ex-husband.

“I may have known that it was going on or that when things happen they happen. But you know you realize that when you pull the plug on something like that you’re pulling the plug on a lot of other people not just yourself. And, I just felt it’s just was never the right time to just…… you know, I mean corporations, companies, product lines, kids, schools, friends, homes ……I mean that’s…..it’s a trickle effect and in our situation…..he was really big and it would have been a humongous ball so I just stayed the course.”

However, the show went off air after the fourth season, when Linda filed the divorce, without discussing it with Hogan. A year later, she blamed Hulk’s extramarital affair with their daughter’s close friend for the divorce. But the wrestling legend denied every allegation. In his autobiography, ‘My Life Outside the Ring’, Hulk mentioned that Linda suspected him of having affairs, but he never acknowledged having one.
