Sylvester Stallone and Jennifer Flavin are divorcing after 25 years of marriage after Flavin filed a petition “for dissolution of marriage and other relief” from the Rocky actor, 76, on Friday at a court in Palm Beach County, Florida.
Although Stallone and Flavin, 54, started dating in 1988 at a restaurant in Beverly Hills, California, they only got married in 1997.
With Scarlet, 20, Sistine, 24, and Sophia, 25, they had three daughters in total. Seargeoh, a son from Stallone’s first marriage to Sasha Czack, is also his child. Sage, the oldest child he had with Starlin Wright, passed away in 2012.
According to a report by the ‘PEOPLE’ news outlet, Stallone said, “I love my family. We are amicably and privately addressing these personal issues.”
However, Flavin, his wife said, “I’m sad to announce that after 25 years of marriage I have filed for divorce from my husband Sylvester Stallone. While we will no longer be married, I will always cherish the more than 30-year relationship that we shared, and I know we are both committed to our beautiful daughters. I ask for privacy for our family as we amicably move forward.”
The couple split up three months after commemorating their silver wedding anniversary and paying each other tribute on Instagram.
