While little is known about her background, Jennifer McDaniel is an award-winning makeup artist in Hollywood, which means she’s no first-timer to flamboyant celebrities like Hogan.

Some of her notable makeup works involved hit films like Fright Night (2011), The Last Stand (2013), Odd Thomas (2013), and Let Me In (2010).

Owing to her superb skills, she was once nominated for the Saturn Award for Best Make-Up Artist for her fantastic work in Let Me In.

Jennifer’s Marriage and Divorce With Hulk Hogan

Jennifer McDaniel met Terry Gene Bollea in 2008, after the latter’s divorce from his first wife, Linda Hogan, whom he was married to for 26 years.

Sharing a love for fitness and health, the two immediately dated and tied the knot in December 2010. They exchanged vows surrounded by their family and friends in Hogan’s mansion in Clearwater, Florida.

A Massive Marital Scandal

For 11 years, Jennifer and Hogan’s marriage was happy and smooth sailing. Often seen together in the spotlight, it seemed like nothing could keep their hands off each other.

Despite being 18 years younger than her husband, Jennifer supported Hogan wholeheartedly through thick and thin, even during the wrestler’s financial instability.

However, in 2016, the couple’s marriage was dealt with a massive blow.

Gawk, a media outlet, suddenly leaked a sex tape of Hulk Hogan with Heather Clem, wife of the radio host and Hogan’s best friend, Bubba “the Love Sponge” Clem.

Hogan would later file a $100 million lawsuit against the media outlet and win. Despite all the controversies, Jennifer and Hogan’s marriage surprisingly survived the massive scandal.

For a few years at least.

The Subsequent Divorce and Settlement

In 2022, Hulk Hogan surprised his fans by revealing on Twitter that he and her second wife, Jennifer McDaniel have called it quits.

This was after Hogan was seen hanging around his current wife, Sky Daily.

Apparently, the two had already split a year before Hogan’s post but kept it completely under wraps for legal reasons.

What happened after? Well, here’s what I found.

Hulk Hogan had to pay Jennifer a one-time sum as alimony and buy her a new car within 45 days after the split. She was also able to keep a few properties they bought together in Palm Isle, Florida.

Final Thoughts

Despite the controversies and the divorce, Jennifer McDaniel and Hulk Hogan remained amicable with each other. While their split is certainly unfortunate, both of them are now happy with their current lives.
