From TMZ.com: – Even though it was Linda Bollea who dropped divorce papers on hubby Hulk Hogan last week, the 48 year-old celebuspouse is still hoping to save her marriage. “She keeps saying to him ‘Can’t we find a way to make this work?,” a source close to the couple tells TMZ. “She doesn’t want to see the family break up. She really wants to work it out with him. But it is like pushing up against a brick wall. She is heartbroken about it.” And the Hulkster’s not so tickled about reports that he learned of the split from a Florida newspaper reporter. “He actually heard it from his lawyer,” we’re told. “There was no surprise. It had been coming for a while. They have grown to be two different people. When hardships hit them, it really brings them down. And when they were finally hit with a real problem — (son Nick, 17, is facing felony charges of reckless driving from an August car wreck) — they just couldn’t make it work.”
– From The Tampa Tribune: – Linda Bollea wants a share of two multimillion-dollar local properties she and her husband own as well as alimony, child support and attorney fees. These are the details in a divorce petition she filed last week in Pinellas Circuit Court against famed wrestler Hulk Hogan after 24 years of marriage. The lawsuit says the marriage is “irretrievably broken.” The two had one child â<80>” Nick Bollea, 17, who was arrested this month in connection with a wreck that left a passenger, John Graziano, with severe brain injuries. Linda Bollea is seeking child support and a life insurance policy to cover child support in the event that Hogan dies, the petition states. She wants wherever she decides to live to be Nick Bollea’s primary residence, with Hogan allowed liberal visitation, the petition states. She also wants Hogan to pay for Nick Bollea’s health insurance, the petition states. Linda Bollea wants the couple’s assets equitably distributed â<80>” including the family’s $.7.2 million mansion on Willadel Drive, which has a gazebo, two boat davits, a pool, a fountain and three fireplaces. She also wants a share of a separate $2 million waterfront home, the petition states. Neither property has a mortgage on it, the petition states. The couple also have a condominium under construction in Las Vegas; Linda Bollea wants a share of that, too. If the two cannot work out an arrangement, the properties should be ordered sold, with the money divided equally between the two, the petition states. Linda Bollea also says she does not have enough money to pay a lawyer, though Hogan does.
