Sylvester Stallone and Jennifer Flavin are divorcing.
The 76-year-old actor and Jennifer have been married for the last 25 years – but the 54-year-old model filed a petition “for dissolution of marriage and other relief” at a court in Florida on Friday (Aug 19).
In a statement to People, Stallone – who has daughters Scarlet, 20, Sistine, 24, and Sophia, 25, with his wife – said: “I love my family. We are amicably and privately addressing these personal issues.”
The couple celebrated their silver wedding anniversary earlier this year.
The Hollywood star – who also has Seargeoh, 43, with actress Sasha Czack, as well as another son, Sage, who died in 2012 – took to social media at the time to celebrate the landmark.
Alongside some throwback photos of them together, Stallone wrote on Instagram: “Happy 25th anniversary to my amazing wife. There is not enough words to describe what this incredibly selfless dedicated, patient, woman has meant to our lives and I only wish they could be

The model also claimed that their marriage was “getting better every year”.
She wrote on Instagram: “Our marriage keeps getting better every year! I can’t wait to spend the rest of our lives together! [heart emojis] (sic)”
However, the heartfelt post was removed shortly before it emerged that the couple – who first met at a restaurant in Beverly Hills, California, in 1988 – are heading for a divorce after 25 years of marriage.
