Stallone’s first film was named “The Party at Kitty and Stud’s”, for which he got $200. Like his hero from this film (Stud), he behaved in similar way and dated numerous women. Three of them became his wives.
Sylvester has been married to Jennifer Flavin since 1997. They met in early 1990s, when he had already become a star and she was an aspiring young model. Their all-weather relationships were not simple, but they managed to keep their love.
Jennifer Flavin’s life wasn’t blessed with sweet moments in her early years. She was born in Los Angeles, and grew up in the ordinary American family alongside 6 siblings. When the girl turned 11, she lost her father, and that changed the usual flow of her life. Without a provider, their family lived in poverty, and it inspired Jennifer to start earning herself. At the age of 19 she signed the deal with Elite Modeling Agency and began to work as a model.

She hadn’t become popular to the moment of her meeting with Sly, but had already got some solid records in her resume. She featured on Cosmopolitan cover and participated in Chanel fashion show. The pretty young girl had dinner in a restaurant, when she crossed her ways with Sylvester Stallone.
They dated during long 5 years and even broke up for some time, when finally Sly dared to propose his young girlfriend. “He wrote me six-page letter and sent it through E-mail”, the model explained in her interview to “People”. In spite of the fact, that proposition was sent through mail, the woman answered “Yes!” and was on cloud nine, as her older brother Patrick told to journalists.
Stallone and Flavin married in London on May 17, 1997. Flavin filed for divorce in August 2022, but the couple reconciled the following month and remained married.
Jennifer gave a birth to three beautiful daughters. She quit modeling and started career of a business owner. The woman develops her line of cosmetics. She tried her hand as an actress, too and appeared opposite her famous husband in the movie “Rocky V”. But her main job is being Mrs. Stallone.
