Brooke Hogan Fears For Hard-Partying Mother Linda

Brooke Hogan reckons that her estranged mother is being led astray by her toyboy lover.

The wannabe singer's relationship with mum Linda took a nose-dive after Mama Hogan hooked up with a 19-year-old named Charlie following her split from husband and Brooke's dad, Hulk Hogan.

But it's not the age gap that bothers Brooke the most – it's their hard-partying lifestyle.

She tells OK!: "I had a talk with her and I said, 'I think everyone in America knows why I won’t accept Charlie.' But what people don’t know is that he’s a bad influence on her. She’s not staying as healthy as she should be. He’s 19, he can party his ass off.

"She’s 48. I said, 'Mom, if you want to have a relationship with me you have to dump Charlie.' It’s not because of his age. If he were 5 years old and a good influence on her then that would better. But I’m just not happy with the situation because of their poor judgment — with what they do."

So what kind of things have Charlie and Linda been getting up to?

Brooke remains vague: “I know there are things that could damage her health and make her get old really quick," she says. "I don’t want to see that happen. I’m trying to stick to the tough love thing.

"I’m just staying away until she wakes up. In order for me to keep my sanity, I have to love her from afar. We are totally different women. I’m straightlaced, don’t do drugs, stick to my regimen. It’s different there."
