Hulk Hogan has been condemned by his daughter Brooke after one of her closest friends made claims of an affair with the former wrestling star.

Christiane Plante, a close friend of Brooke's who worked with her while she recorded an album, claims she had an affair with Hogan - whose real name is Terry Bollea - for about a year.

Hogan and his wife Linda have split and are getting divorced.

Plante told America's National Enquirer she knew Hogan was having marriage problems when the alleged affair began.

“Terry and Linda privately knew their marriage was ending. She had left him already, although no official divorce papers had been filed.

“Terry is a good man, good father and a good friend, and he and I grew close at a time when he was going through a very difficult period."

British tabloid The Sun reported Brooke posted a scathing blog update on her Myspace page after hearing the claims.

“When your best friend and one of your closest family members that you have loved unconditionally since your first day on this earth, betrays you together, you could MAYBE find it in yourself to forgive one day ... but you will NEVER forget the hurt they caused you and how it hurt the people who mean the most to you.

“It’s the worst feeling in the world to be betrayed. And worse to know you can never trust the one you should be able to.”

"I'm going through one of the hardest issues I've ever had to deal with in my life.

"Please keep me and my family in your prayers. I'm sure my writing will reflect my state of mind at the moment.

"I need all the support I can get. Thank you."

The post was later removed.

Plante, 33, told the Enquirer she regretted losing Brooke as a friend.

“It seemed right then, but I know it was wrong. Having felt the guilt and pain build up, I gave a note to Brooke apologising for my actions.

“I will never be able to fully forgive myself for this. I have lost an amazing friend.”

Hulk and Brooke both star in the reality television show Hogan Knows Best, currently screening on C4.
