Brooke Hogan has publicly denied rumors that she is having a romantic affair with her "Rock the Block" co-star Scott McGillivray [1].
The denial follows widespread online speculation and a comment from McGillivray on a social media post, sparking public interest in the professional relationship between the two HGTV hosts [2].
Addressing the rumors on social media, Hogan said that she is not having an affair with McGillivray, describing him as a great guy, and a great friend [1]. The speculation surfaced in late April 2024, prompting Hogan to tackle the narrative directly online [2].
"People looooove to speculate," Hogan said [2].
Both hosts are currently married to other partners. Hogan married Steven Oleksy in 2022 [1]. McGillivray has been married to Sabrina McGillivray since 2008 [2].
The two appear together on the HGTV reality series "Rock the Block," where they serve as co-hosts [1]. The show's high-pressure environment and the chemistry between hosts often lead to viewer speculation regarding the personal lives of the cast [2].
Hogan's response aimed to clarify the nature of her friendship with McGillivray and shut down the rumors circulating across various entertainment platforms [3].
“"I’m not having an affair with Scott. He’s a great guy and a great friend."”
This incident highlights the volatility of social media narratives where professional chemistry on reality television is frequently misinterpreted as romantic involvement. By addressing the rumors directly, Hogan is attempting to protect her personal brand and marriage while maintaining a professional working relationship with her co-host.
