Few would argue that Hulk Hogan and his now ex-wife, Linda endured [perhaps even caused?] the messiest divorce in recent Hollywood history. And now Linda plans to tell it all in a book.
A year ago, Hulk released his own indiscreet novel, ‘My Life Outside the Rings,’ which portrayed Linda as “an abusive alcoholic.” Now Linda’s plotting revenge with her own account of their 24-year marriage in which she’s the victim.
The so-far untitled book will apparently discuss the fallout from her son, Nick’s car accident in 2007 which got them all sued, plus “her life, the traumas and how much better life is now she is no longer married.”
“She will include the trials she endured in the marriage, Nick’s accident and the things she’s accomplished,” her schmoozing attorney, Ray Rafool tells Fox. “Linda wants people to know her, how she knows what it’s like to divorce, be a mother and establish a career.”
Hmm…I think he forgot – ‘and to file for divorce based on your husband’s affair with a 33-year old girl. Then have an affair of your own. With a 19-year old boy…While you’re still married.’
So far, no publisher has accepted the book but Rafool says that day will come and they plan to have it on the shelves by the fall. Meantime, he’s also closed a deal with the family who brought a frivolous lawsuit after Nick’s accident.
“Linda is ecstatic that the lawsuits are over,” says Rafool. “Now she gets to move on with her life.”
Move #1 is her own reality show. Yes, another one. Her children also have plans; Once freed from jail after his 7-month sentence, 19-year old Nick moved to L.A. Daughter, Brooke, 21, also went there to get into acting, but she hated the place and now wants to come home:
“She didn’t like L.A as much as she likes the east coast,” says a pal. “She just wasn’t happy and feels better in Florida.”
Brooke sees her future in either music or acting, but the stark truth of Tinseltown clearly wasn’t as easy as the so-called ‘reality’ she shared on TV. But VH1 are now plotting a third season of her show, so that should help some.
The fact it will cover her utter lack of success in coping with reality for real…is perhaps better left as a thought…
