At the age of 70, Hulk Hogan is apparently turning his life around. The wrestling legend only married for the third time in September. In July he announced that he would no longer drink alcohol and had changed his diet. Now he and his wife Sky Daily (45) have been baptized. Hogan shared photos and videos of the ceremony on Instagram.
“Total surrender and devotion to Jesus,” the 70-year-old wrote on the post. It was “the most beautiful day of my life.” He goes on to say: “No worries, no hate, no judgment… just love!” A video shows Hogan being dunked into the water in a small pool, wearing a white T-shirt and a cross necklace around his neck. A second clip shows his wife, also dressed all in white, being dunked, with Hogan assisting.
In the post, Hogan linked to the Indian Rocks Baptist Church in Florida, where the baptism apparently took place. It is an evangelical, Protestant church.
Hogan and yoga teacher Daily, who is 25 years his junior, got engaged in July 2023 after dating for around a year and said yes in September in Florida.
The former wrestler and reality star spoke openly about his faith a few months ago. On the platform X (formerly Twitter) he wrote in April: “I accepted Christ as my Savior at the age of 14.”
Hogan was married to Linda Hogan (64) from 1983 to 2009, with whom he has two adult children. He married Jennifer McDaniel in 2010 and separated in 2021. Sky Daily brought three children into the marriage.
Hulk Hogan rose to fame as a wrestling star in the 1980s and later appeared with his family on the reality show “Hogan Knows Best.” In 2015, things became quieter after a racism scandal. He now lives in Florida.
