Hulk Hogan has confirmed tabloid reports that his 50-year-old ex-wife Linda is engaged to 21-year-old Charlie Hill.
“I'm ecstatic for her, I'm very happy for them," he said in a statement to RadarOnline. "I think they're perfect for each other. I wish them the best."

Hogan (real name: Terry Bollea), 56, hasn't always felt that way.
Hill is one year younger than Hulk and Linda's daughter Brooke and was pals with their son Nick. Charlie started dating Linda when he was 19 -- around the same time she split from the famed wrestler in 2007 (a newspaper reporter broke the news to Hogan that his wife was divorcing him).
"You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can't go to anymore, you're driving through downtown Clearwater [Fla.] and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife..." Hogan famously seethed to Rolling Stone last year.

But Hulk's attorney David Houston said the wrestler -- who is also engaged (to girlfriend Jennifer McDaniel) -- was just upset after the split and has since moved on.
"Obviously, when you go through a divorce, there is a great deal of emotion and you go through your ups and downs," Houston told Radar. "He was married to her for 23 years so there is a certain degree of affection and he does wish her the best."
Tell Us What You Think
77THEY WON'T EVEN BE TOGETHER IN TEN YEARS. DOES ANYONE THINK HE WILLHANG ON TO THAT POOR OLD LADY FOR THAT LONG. HE IS YOUNG AND WILL HAVE SOME ONE HIS AGE AND SHE WILL BE OUT IN THE OLD FOLKS HOME, WISHING SHE HAD STAYED WITH TERRY.
THE KID WILL GET TIRED OF THAT WRINKLED OLD LADY AND GO LOOKING FOR A FRESH YOUNG HONEY. THERE IS ONLY FAME FOR HIM. HE DOES NOT EVEN KNOW WHAT LOVE IS AT THIS POINT. HE IS ONLY LOOKING FOR SEX AND THAT BODY IS WORE OUT. GO TERRY AND DON'T LOOK BACK.
YOU GO GIRL! BUT....DON'T MARRY HIM AND LOSE THE ALIMONEY! NO GUY IS WORTH IT HONEY!
How she can keep up with him in 10 yrs..don't care
thats just sick but if she wants to do it she can not my problem
These 2 are awesome and I applaud them for not letting what ppl say about them destroy there love for each other! Life is short and domestic courts are over crowded with pending divorce cases....Whose to judge here..there happy and in a life that is far too short and full of un happy couples I say congratulations..the 2 of you look wonderful together ;)
STOP trashin this couple !! would you rather see couples fightin/abusin/keelin like oj or chris brown or mel gibson. OR would you rather see couples who are lovin/livin and laughin like demi moore or linda hogan ... people here are JEALOUS !! GROW UP !!
I am sure the marriage of a 50 year old woman to a 21 year old guy is going to last for many, many HOURS. This guy wants fame... let's hope he doesn't get any!
one word NASTY
Sorry family disintegrated, but glad to see it isn't just men who can get a young (legal) hot thing. U go girl !
One word- Ew.
I'm all for the whole "cougar" thing, but a 30 year gap is a little much.To each their own, but I would definitely be upset if my mom decided to date someone a year younger than me. Gross
classy!
It make me sick to my stomach have to hear about a mom dating a boy or a man younger than their children. Plus, let alone he is soon going to be a stepfather to them... I be surpised if they rebal against him.... I love Hulk and Brooke Hogan..They better w/o Linda Hogan (Botox)woman
AW I'm happy some PEOPLE THINKS ITS CUTE FOR A OLD BAG TO F()CK A KID MORE THAN HALF HER AGE. IT'S GROSS FOR A WOMAN TO DO IT. I WOULDN'T WANT MY SON DATEING A 50 YR OLD WOMAN. BUT THE GUY IS HOTT
hes pretty hot. good for her. i think its more the sex than the money. there are other women out there with money. she looks pretty good for her age. im sure hes very attracted to her. im sure hulk is jealous cuz he is way younger & hotter than he ever was. whatever makes her happy. u go girl. im even jealous- wish he could be my boyfriend. anyway younger guys like older women.
there is such a thing as a pre-nup people.
good for her. hes pretty hot! i dont think its the money there are other women out there with money. she's pretty sexy for her age. im sure he's very attracted to her n younger guys do like older women. it's probably more the sex than the money. it's o.k. for an older man to marry a younger woman but not o.k. for an older woman to marry a younger man? i'm sure her ex is jealous cuz he's way hotter & younger than him. whatever makes them happy.
seriously? my thinking is if you can create it you shouldn't date it- nasty!
so Everyone keeps doggin on Hulk because his fiance looks like Brooke but has anyone noticed how much Charlie looks like a 20 year old Hulk Hogan.
