Brooke Hogan ’s husband, former NHL player Steven Oleksy , has been trying to get in touch with his wife’s father, Hulk Hogan , for years — but the legendary pro wrestler won’t pick up the phone. As drama within the Hogan family rages on — which kicked into overdrive on Wednesday, March 26, when Brooke’s mom, Linda Hogan , claimed she was estranged from her daughter — a source exclusively told Us Weekly that Steven has been proactively trying to foster peace for “years.” According to the source, Oleksy, 39, has directly requested a “man-to-man conversation” from Hulk, 71, multiple times since he began dating Brooke, 36.
“Unfortunately, that’s never been in the cards,” the source said.

Since the latest chapter of the unfolding family feud — which has seen both Oleksy and Brooke respond to claims made by Hulk and Linda, 65, on social media — the source said Oleksy and Brooke “haven’t heard from either of them.
” “The hurt is very, very heavy,” the source added. “Brooke tries to move more and more away from the letdown time and time again.” Us Weekly has reached out to Hulk Hogan (real name Terry Bollea) and Linda Hogan for comment.
Despite all of the tension, the insider claimed there is still hope for reconciliation if Hulk and Linda — who finalized their divorce in 2009 — take some “accountability.” “That would be a huge step in the right direction,” the source said. “There’s never been any direct accountability or apology.
[Brooke] has fought pretty hard to keep people in a good light. She’s protected that for a long time. Accountability is the most powerful word in this entire situation.
” In response to her mother’s claims that they hadn’t spoken in nearly eight years, Brooke took to Instagram on Thursday, March 27, and explained, “I try very hard to ignore issues surrounding my family in hopes I might have peace in my life.” Related: Brooke Hogan Claps Back at Her Mom‘s Claim That She ‘Never Met‘ Son-in-Law “I have completely separate reasons for going no contact with each of my parents,” Brooke wrote. “No contact with my mom has nothing to do with my dad, and no contact with my father has nothing to do with my mother.

” However, Brooke clarified that the claims were “not pointed” at either of her parents. “I longed for a normal family, but it never came to fruition,” Brooke said. “I’ve repeatedly held my hand out to help them, only to have them pull me into the darkness with them.
I’ve set boundaries that were not respected, and at this point, I can truly do no more.” In a Saturday, March 29 interview with TMZ, Linda claimed Hulk was “always a good father.”.
