- The soon-to-be former Mrs. Hogan, Linda Bollea, caused quite a bit of chaos
at the Sundance Film Festival last week after she showed up with her 20 year
old boyfriend Charlie Hill. The duo were trying to get the maximum out of
the paparazzi and traffic controllers had to stop cars after a lot of people
rushed to take photos of the cougar and her prey. Her son Nick joined in the
fun although kept a low profile and didn't seem to have a problem seeing his
mom making out with her boyfriend and high school friend. Linda and the
Hulkster were back in court this week after they fought over
their....gardener. Linda wanted to stop the gardener from going to Hulk's
house even though it's Hulk who pays for the gardener to fix Linda's
property.
