Brooke Hogan came out to defend herself after several users criticized her for a bikini photo included in a tribute to her late father, Hulk Hogan.

The daughter of the WWE icon explained that it was not a provocative image, but rather a vulnerable moment while remembering her dad at the beach, a place they both associated with many family memories.

After the comments, Brooke responded forcefully and said that if she had wanted to post a “thirst trap”, she would have done so clearly, but that post was part of her grieving process.
