Rogan’s dad, who’s a retired New Jersey policeman in his 80s, vehemently denied the claims, and had his lawyers send a warning letter in 2022.

Advertisement Rosa Rogan Lunelli – who has never met her famous UFC commentator brother – continues to defend her dad’s legacy. “Ever since Joe’s receipt of the attorneys’ letter, he has no longer spoken about his claims of abuse,” she told the Daily Mail earlier this week. “My family adamantly denies those claims.

There has been no contact on Joe’s part with wanting to meet our father nor us.” She first spoke out against Rogan’s allegations in an interview with the Daily Mail back in 2022, shortly after her twin sister Bridget Rogan Carselda and father had decided to publicly dispute his claims too. “I read that on a podcast Joe states that my father abused women and children,” she told the media outlet.

“It made me sick. I was extremely hurt by these comments”. {"@context":"https://schema.
