Linda Marie Bollea (born Linda Marie Claridge on August 24, 1959) also known as Linda Hogan, is the wife of professional wrestler Hulk Hogan. She is best known for her role on the American reality television show Hogan Knows Best.
Biography Linda met Terry Bollea a.k.a Hulk Hogan in a restaurant in Los Angeles. For nearly two years, the couple had a long-distance relationship mostly over the telephone. They married in 1983 in a wedding attended by André the Giant, Vince McMahon, and other wrestling personalities. They have two children, Brooke (1988) and Nick (1990).
In 1995, Linda appeared on Hulk Hogan's album Hulk Rules, where she sang back-up vocals along with The Wrestling Boot Band. Linda, however, entered the spotlight in 2005, due to the VH1 reality show Hogan Knows Best. A 2005 documentary DVD on street racers, called "Vehicular Lunatics", includes a segment with Linda Bollea.
She filed for divorce on November 20, 2007. When reached for comment, Terry Bollea said he was unaware of his wife's divorce filings. The Graziano family's lawyer believes the divorce might be an attempt to divide the family's assets from a planned civil suit against the Bolleas regarding their son, Nick Bollea.
