It's been a rough year for Hulk Hogan and family.
The celebrity wrestler's wife, Linda, has filed for divorce after
24 years of marriage, and the couple's 17-year-old son, Nick Bollea, is
facing charges of reckless driving after an Aug. 26 crash in
Clearwater, Fla., that left a friend critically injured.
"I'm leaning into the wind," Hogan, whose real name is Terry
Bollea, told syndicated TV entertainment show "Access Hollywood" on
Monday. "I'm trying to stay very, very positive. You know, I just pray
that things get better for my family."
"As far as my son goes, we're going to be very happy when the truth
really comes out of what really (happened), instead of all the
speculation and all the mentality that's going on," Hogan, 54, said.
"As far as my divorce goes, I love my family and I love my wife to
death and I just don't know what tomorrow's going to bring."
When asked about a possible reconciliation with his wife, Hogan said: "There's always a chance. You can never say never."
Hogan and Laila Ali co-host NBC's "American Gladiators," a revival
of the '90s competition series. The new edition debuts Jan. 6.
"Things are bigger and faster," Hogan said of the show. "Now we've got water - and I wish it was shark-infested."
