Hulk Hogan was shocked to learn that his wife, Linda Marie Bollea, filed for divorce on Tuesday, Nov. 20. A reporter for the St. Petersburg Times informed Hogan of the news on Friday.

The stunned former wrestler, whose real name is Terry Bollea, said, "My wife has been in California for about three weeks. Holy smokes. Wow, you just knocked the bottom out of me."

The couple have been married for 24 years and have two children, Brooke, 19 and Nick, 17. The family has their own reality show, Hogan Knows Best, on VH1.
