Brooke Hogan confirms marriage, posts 'rare' photo of husband Steven Oleksy: 'Really lucky'
View Date:2024-12-23 16:08:18
Brooke Hogan, the daughter of Hulk Hogan, secretly tied the knot to hockey player Steven Oleksy, she announced at the top of the new year.
Hogan confirmed the nuptials in a Jan. 1 Instagram post, which featured black-and-white photos, one of the couple cheek to cheek and the other of Oleksy posing stoically.
"A rare sighting of the husband," Hogan, 35, wrote. "We like to keep to ourselves, but somehow the news is out."
In the photo, Hogan is seen in a jeweled top and hoop earrings while Oleksy, 37, is seen in a leather jacket and wide-brimmed hat.
Hogan called the Orlando Solar Bears player the "kindest, sweetest" man "you'll ever meet," while gushing over her beau. "I'm really lucky. God did me a solid on this one."
Her new husband commented on the post: "You have taught me so much on what 'real' means and what truly matters in life," he wrote. "I love you!"
The TV personality and singer thanked her followers for their well wishes and kindness before adding: "Now back to our regularly scheduled privacy."
TMZ was the first to report the marriage. In photos reportedly taken in June 2022, the couple is seen in photos getting hitched in a private ceremony held in a tropical setting.
In Hogan's Instagram post, and Olesky's post on X, formerly Twitter on the same day, neither confirm a timeline for the marriage.
Olesky wrote on X that he values "privacy on a deep level" but "I guess some secrets are just too amazing to hide forever."
The outlet also claimed the wedding included just Hogan and Olesky; the former "Brooke Knows Best" star has distanced herself from family in recent years.
She shared a lengthy statement on Instagram in September, addressing the assumptions around why she didn't attend the wedding ceremony between her father Hulk Hogan, 70, with Sky Daily, 45.
"As we all experience this with our own families, the dynamics of a family unit continuously change over the years," the "Brooke Knows Best" alum continued in her statement. "With that being said, my family has experienced a LOT of change."

Brooke Hogan said those changes have "been difficult to say the least," especially navigating that in the public eye.
"For my own journey to healing and happiness, I have chosen to create some distance between myself and my family, and am focusing on people and things that heal my heart and align with my own personal beliefs, goals and values," she continued.
