Linda Hogan Arrested For DUI As Hulk Hogan's Sex Tape is Leaked
It has not been a great week for the Hogan family.
On the same day a sex tape leaked on the internet featuring former professional wrestler Hulk Hogan, his ex-wife Linda was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence. She was reportedy taken to a nearby police station where she was booked and put behind bars.
According to TMZ, Linda, whose real name is Linda Bollea, was arrested shortly after 1 a.m. on Thursday, Oct. 4.
Police did not confirm if Linda's blood alchohol limit was 0.084 (just above California's 0.08 legal limit).
Linda's rep confirmed that the 53-year-old was pulled over for speeding and released several hours later on a $5,000 bail.
The rep claimed Hogan was driving home after attending a jewelry event in Los Angeles. The rep admitted the reality star drank a glass of champagne on an empty stomach after she had taken antibiotics. Unfortunately the combination increased the effects of the alcohol from the champagne she drank earlier at the party.
Linda married Hulk Hogan in 1983. The couple have two children, Nick and Brooke, who starred with them in their reality show with them,"Hogan Knows Best." The couple split in 2008.
A sex tape was released on the internet this week starring Hulk Hogan.
Gawker.com obtained the 30-minute, 17-second long video in which the 59-year-old professional wrestler is rumored to be having sex with Heather Clem, the ex-wife of his best friend, radio DJ 'Bubba the Love Sponge.'
Bubba doesn't seem to mind that Hogan and his ex are together because allegedly Bubba is the one chatting with them before the pair get down and dirty.
Hogan told TMZ that he was "secretly filmed" without his consent and the footage is nothing less than an "outrageous invasion of privacy.
