HULK HOGAN CLOTHESLINED BY WIFE’S DIVORCE DEMAND: What’cha gonna do, brother, when your wife of 23 years serves papers on you?

The ST. PETERSBURG TIMES reports that Hulk Hogan’s better half, Linda Bollea, wants half of the wrester-slash- actor’s money. Best of all, Hogan found out about the divorce filing not from Linda herself, but from a reporter.

Already dealing with his son’s “spectacular” car crash, Hogan was called Friday night about Linda’s demand for divorce. Saying this was the first he heard of it, Hogan replied, “Thank you for the great information,” then hung up.

Five minutes later, Hogan called back, saying, “I’m kind of shocked. You caught me off-guard…..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.”

When asked if the two had earlier discussed the possibility of divorce, Hogan replied, “That’s my private business.”

So private, that it’s been a regular highlight on the VH1 reality show, “Hogan Knows Best“.
