Reports that Stallone was "blindsided" by Jennifer Flavin's divorce filing on Aug. 19, as they appeared "so happy" together just a few weeks earlier.
Flavin - the "Rambo" star's wife of 25 years - has been on set constantly while he is filming his upcoming Paramount Plus series "Tulsa King" in Oklahoma City.
According to sources, Sly was in Oklahoma when the papers were filed on Aug. 18, and he was shocked to receive the news when he found out about it.
"There could not be a nicer couple ... she's been visiting him in Oklahoma City, where he's filming. Everything sounded great. Page Six quoted a source as saying, "I have no idea what happened.".
According to Flavin, 54 her husband intentionally dissipated, depleted and wasted the couple's assets and demanded that Stallone not be allowed to sell or transfer assets while the couple is separated
A source familiar with the case said: "It's so ridiculous, I don't understand why Jennifer's lawyers put this in the divorce petition, it's just a lie." T-shirts haven't sold as much as Sly! ”
It is alleged that this led to "an extremely heated argument" that brought up other issues in their marriage, although they were reportedly able to work through those issues.
Nevertheless, Stallone adopted the dog and named him Dwight after his "Tulsa King" character. Earlier this month, he posted a photo of himself and Dwight the dog on Instagram to promote the show.
Stallone and Flavin's daughters - Sophia, 26; Sistine, 24; and Scarlet, 20 - have been filming a reality show together, which their father helped them obtain and will debut on Paramount+
It has been 25 years since Sylvester Stallone and I were married. I will always cherish the 30-year relationship we shared, and I know we're both committed to our daughters," Flavin told People.
Flavin's trust in Stallone was shattered in 1994 when model Janice Dickinson claimed he was her father. In 1997, Stallone and Flavin got married after a DNA test proved otherwise.
