Y! ENTERTAINMENT – Brooke Hogan said she isn’t convinced her father Hulk battled leukemia prior to his death at age 71 — after claiming he didn’t want to marry his wife, Sky Daily.
“Being through all the surgeries, you have to do a blood panel before any major surgery,” she said after making an impromptu call to the “Bubba The Love Sponge” radio show on Tuesday. “How did nobody catch a high white blood count? That’s what bothers me the most.”
Brooke added, “We don’t have cancer that runs in our family. It seems weird.”
The actress, 37, confessed that she was “puzzled” by claims the legendary wrestler “had leukemia” prior to his death on July 24, because she “saw his blood work every time [he had surgery].’”
Brooke noted that with the exception of a heart surgery earlier this year, she’d been present for all of them.
“One doctor, I quote, said, ‘His blood is like a 25-year-old,’” the reality star claimed. “I mean, he took the most care of his body. He was going to an anti-aging specialist.”
The actress divulged she had hoped to see her father — who was laid to rest on Aug. 5 — “making it to 85 or something around there.”
“You know, his heart was compromised,” she said, explaining that she didn’t think the final surgery should have been “the thing that took him out.”
Brooke later shared that she felt it was “weird that no autopsy was performed, because yes, you can have a heart attack; but what was the reason for the heart attack is the question” …
