In response to rumors online about why Brooke Hogan did not attend her father Hulk Hogan's wedding on Friday to Sky Daily, she took to social media today to make things clear on why she was not there.

Brooke noted that she has decided to create distance with her family and she is focused on her happiness but she wished her father well. Brooke has been noticeably absent from Hogan's almost-weekly social media posts from his restaurant and appearances around the Tampa area.

Here is what she wrote on Instagram:

"As many of you know, I value my privacy, but unfortunately, a lot of media outlets are making assumptions as to why I did not attend my father's third wedding. Instead of leaving it to speculation, I decided it's better to shut it all down here.

As we all experience this with our own families, the dynamics of a family unit continuously change over the years.

With that being said, my family has experienced a LOT of change. With all of it happening in the public eye, I've had to learn how to best navigate those changes as they come, which has been difficult to say the least.

For my own journey to healing and happiness, I have chosen to create some distance between myself and my family, and am focusing on people and things that heal my heart and align with my own personal beliefs, goals, and values.

I wish him well."
