Hulk Hogan is desperate to save his marriage because his wife is his "world". The wrestling legend's wife Linda Marie Bollea filed for divorce last week, but Hulk - real name Terry Gene Bollea - is hoping they can work it out. Hulk, 54, said: "I care for my wife and my children are my world and I just hope this all works out. "Please respect my family's privacy at this time with all that we have been through." In divorce papers, Linda, 46, deemed the 24-year marriage "irretrievably broken". The wrestler-turned-actor married Linda in 1983 and the couple have two children, 19-year-old daughter Brooke, an aspiring singer, and 17-year-old son Nick.
