Hulk Hogan surprised his fans on Monday, February 28, 2022, when he announced on social media that he was already divorced from his second wife Jennifer McDaniel.
The 68-year-old professional wrestling legend shared the news in a tweet that also announced he was dating a new woman named Sky.
Although Hogan didn’t share when he divorced McDaniel, court records obtained by TMZ indicate that he filed for divorce in October 2021.
‘Yo Maniacs just for the record, the Facebook and Instagram posts are of me and my girlfriend Sky, I am officially divorced, sorry I thought everyone already knew, love my Maniacs4Life,’ the WWE star wrote.
Prior to the announcement, some of Hogan’s fans had spotted him out with a woman near his home in Clearwater, Florida, TMZ reported.
The two had been spotted at bars and doing karaoke, and he had shared a video to his Facebook account of himself and a woman who appears to be Sky watching another woman perform at a bar.
In a video the wrestler (whose real name is Terry Bollea) posted featuring Poison frontman Bret Michaels, he can be seen introducing ‘my girl Sky’ to the singer, though she mostly stays silent as Hogan talks Michaels into FaceTiming with his son Nick Hogan, 31, whom he said was a big fan.
Hogan’s divorce from McDaniel appears to have been resolved quickly, as the court records indicate it was finalized within 2021 after his October filing.
The couple began dating in 2008 and got engaged in November of the following year before tying the knot in December 2010, in Clearwater.
Hogan was previously married to Linda Claridge from 1983 until she filed for divorce in 2007.
She claimed at the time that her husband had engaged in several affairs, though he adamantly denied any infidelity at the time.
However, in 2012 — during his marriage to McDaniel — Hogan was caught on tape having sex with Heather Clem, the estranged wife of the radio host Bubba the Love Sponge.
The tape was filmed by Bubba, and a clip was eventually published by Gawker.
Hogan sued the radio host and his wife for invasion of privacy and later reached a settlement.
He subsequently sued the publication for $100 million, alleging that defamed him, invaded his privacy, and caused him emotional pain.
Gawker eventually reached a $31 million settlement with him.
