First Marriage

Since Sylvester's life revolved around Hollywood it was no surprise that he fell for someone in the same industry. Sasha Czack started out on the CBS Network’s soap opera called "Love of Life" before landing a few other roles in TV and films before she met Sylvester.

After 11 years of bliss, their relationship came to a screeching halt ​​​​​​.​

The pair hit it off and by the time Sylvester was getting popular in films, they were engaged. At the same time, Sasha landed a lead role in the 1972 film named "Play it as it Lays" but gave up the role to help her fiance type screenplays which he insisted he needed help doing.

At age 28, the Golden Globe winner tied the knot with his girlfriend Sasha Czack on December 28, 1974, in a highly publicized ceremony. They had two sons, Sage Moonblood Stallone and Seargeoh.

Seargeoh was diagnosed with autism from a young age. After 11 years of bliss, their relationship came to a screeching halt when they decided to separate. Their divorce was finalized on 14 February 1985.

The divorce also caused major tension between Sylvester and his son, Sage. It was only when then two started working together that their relationship improved.

"When a parent loses a child there is no greater pain. Therefore I am imploring people to respect my talented son's memory and feel compassion for his loving mother Sasha.

Second Marriage

While still going through his first divorce, Stallone was trying to figure out where he stood when it came to love. However, a bold move from model and actress Brigitte Nielsen certainly caught his eye.

She slipped a promo shot under his Manhattan hotel room door, that said:

”My name is Brigitte Nielsen…. I’d really like to meet you. Here’s my number.”

Almost Happily Ever After

Sylvester Stallone, it seemed to find the perfect woman in Jennifer Flavin. However, his relationship with Jennifer Flavin was nearly destroyed before they ever made it down the aisle.

A not-so-special delivery via FedEx on March 11, 1994, broke Flavin's heart.

In 1988, Sylvester, then 42, met aspiring model Jennifer Flavin, 19, at a Beverly Hills, restaurant. They hit it off and started dating.

Just when things appeared to be getting serious, everything fell apart. A not-so-special delivery via FedEx on March 11, 1994, broke Flavin's heart.

Flavin received a FedEx package with a six-page handwritten letter from the actor ending their five-year relationship. Flavin opened up to People Magazine about the break up saying,

“I cried a lot… You can’t just write somebody off in a letter after six years. It’s not like I was going to try to beg him to come back to me or anything. I just wanted to talk.”

Janice Dickinson

It was later revealed that Stallone ended his relationship with Jennifer Flavin via FedEx to be with Janice Dickinson. Dickinson had just given birth to her daughter Savannah and claimed she was Stallones, daughter.

Savannah was even given his surname at birth. The pair got engaged but split up less than a year later when Stallone discovered Savannah was not his daughter.
