Brooke Hogan has called the circumstances surrounding her father Hulk Hogan's death "weird," and so she's now offering to pay for an autopsy.

In a post shared on the influencer and singer's IG Stories, she reacted to Hulk's wife, Sky Hogan, revealing that he hasn't been cremated yet.

"I'm glad to see that my dad has not been cremated and that Sky is waiting because of family questions," she wrote. "With all of the speculation and uncertainty of my dad's death, I want to personally offer to pay for an autopsy if that's what it takes to get it done. My dad's dignity and legacy deserves it."

In an interview days after his death, Brooke expressed confusion over the reports of her father's death at age 71, reportedly of a heart attack. "It's weird that no autopsy was performed," Brooke said on The Bubba the Love Sponge Show. "Because yes, you can have a heart attack, but what was the reason for the heart attack is the question."

She said that Hulk was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a blood and bone cancer, and that was only revealed to her through medical documents about his cause of death.

"That's what has me puzzled," she said. "Because they're saying, 'Oh, he had leukemia.' And I saw his blood work every time. One doctor, I quote, said his blood is like a 25-year-old's. I mean, he took the most care of his body. He was going to an anti-aging specialist, and also, just being through all the surgeries, you have to do a blood panel before any major surgery. How did nobody catch a high white blood cell count? ... It just seems weird... The lack of an autopsy and then a leukemia diagnosis out of nowhere? It's BS."

More recently, Sky shared a memorial post dedicated to her late husband and spoke about plans to have his body cremated.

"Terry chose cremation knowing this physical life is temporary and his heavenly body eternal," Sky wrote. "He has not yet been cremated, as our family is making sure every question about his medical care is answered first. Once we have that peace of mind, we will honor his wish and fulfill it with love and respect."

She also cautioned her followers to be aware of "heartbreakingly misleading media stories created by faceless AI accounts or by people not close enough to truly know what was happening." She urged people to remain patient.
