With a last name as a boy, staying out of the apparent is not an easy task – but Brooke Hogan Having managed to do it, all while criticizing the life he thought might never be possible.
Brooke, 37, rose to the fame of reality television in the early 2000s on her family’s VH1 reality series, Hogan knows bestbroadcast between 2005 and 2007. Her father, wrestling legend Hulk Hoganwas the show’s catalyst, which also included Hulk’s wife at the time and Brooke’s mother, Lindaand brother Brooke, Nick.
Later he had his own effect on VH1, Brooke knows bestbroadcast between 2008 and 2009.
Along the way, Brooke has explored a music career – her song in 2006 “About Us,” Paul’s wallPeak in number 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 – and followed in her father’s wrestling footsteps, appearing short in WWE and then in the total non -stop (TNA) wrestling actions between 2012 and 2013.
In the years since, Brooke has faded mainly from public view. In a unique interview with US Weekly, Brooke detailed what she has been doing since – and why it was all through design.
“As anyone’s life is, it takes crazy twists,” Brooke told us on Wednesday, June 25. “My 20s, I tell people, I just blacked out of the trauma and the filming and I got to enjoy my 20s. I feel like I’ve had to grow up right away and be on TV and work, and those filming hours are so long.”
He added, “It was just like, what was what? Literally I have an Excel spreadsheet on, like, my life dates that my friends helped to try to remember what happened when.”
In 2011, Brooke moved from Los Angeles to Nashville where she has “more friends than I have anywhere else.”
Brooke bought a house in Nashville and started working as a bartender at Bourbon Steak at the JW Marriott in Downtown Nashville. While she was Bartending, she volunteered to help decorate Airbnb who needed rapid regeneration.
“My mother was an inner designer, and my mother was’ Let’s move the sofa ourselves and rearrange the furniture at midnight ‘Type of Person,'” said Brooke. “I was like, ‘Listen, I can decorate the house in, like, three days.’ That’s easy.
Brooke worked and fulfilled her promise, which led to her career taking a sudden and unexpected turn.
“The property manager walked in and was like, ‘This house was empty three days ago. Who did this?’” Brooke remembered. “And my ex girlfriend was like, ‘Brooke has just put him together.’ And it’s like, ‘Brooke, can you do this for other properties as fast as this?’ I was like, ‘Sure.’ “
With the help of her childhood best friend and Brooke knows best Costar, Ashley MenendezBrooke launched BB Designs by Brooke in 2018, which has become one of Nashville’s largest interior design companies.
“(Ashley) saw what I was doing and I was like, ‘Brooke, you’re in a mess. What you have is cool, but you need to make it more corporate, you need more structure,’ Brooke said about Ashley coming aboard the ship. “Ashley came in and restructured my company and hired new people, structuring the invoices and quotes differently. She really rebuilt my company with me, and then we decided it was so fun going to do this together.”
Brooke said her company had completed work on more than 100 houses and had “six to 10” projects in the pipeline every month.
On the personal side of things, Brooke married former NHL player Steven oleskyWho she calls “Saint Steven,” at a private ceremony in June 2022.
“We just sorted out a trophy small park and we had a minister there, and then just did that,” Brooke said about the wedding. “It wasn’t really a big deal. It was just a little bit and some Steve.”
He added, “When we got married alone, I and Steve said we wouldn’t have done it in any other way, because we and God were really, and it was just a lovely day. It was perfect. It was no distraction, there was no drama. We wouldn’t have changed the way we did it.”
In January, Brooke and Steven welcomed twins: son Trophy and a girl Molly.
“I look at my daughter and I think I can’t imagine telling her anything except that she’s just beautiful and amazing and just encouraged her and let her shine and go whatever path she wants to go in life and support her in that,” Brooke said of maternity. “I look at my son and hope he finishes like his father because he is such a man standing up and kind and tender and has a conscience and always does the right thing and always takes the big road.”
In recent years, Brooke has also rediscovered her faith after admitting that she was “waving” during her time in Los Angeles.
“I think everyone has times where you question, ‘Are you there God? What is supposed to happen?’” Brooke explained. “In retrospect, you notice a place pattern every time you think you go through something and it’s not fair, or you feel so lonely, this glimmer is always from something that happens that changes the course and leads you to something better.”
While Brooke Hogan and her husband Steven Oleksy largely keep their relationship out of the public eye, they have offered a rare insight into their marriage. The couple tied the knot in 2022 after dating quietly, but Hogan did not confirm a wedding – or Oleksy’s identity – until the following year. “I’m so glad you’re on (…)
He added, “Now that I am old enough, I can look back and see that pattern, and see that God worked her magic through me, with me, and pushed me towards things, though it was painful.”
Brooke and her family from Tennessee recently moved to her province at home in Florida.
“I spent 12 years in Nashville, and put my tail between my legs and ran back to Florida because the hurricanes were a bit too frightening,” admitted Brooke.
While she is still going back to Nashville “a lot” for business, Brooke said that going back to her roots had been in the cards for a long time.
