Sylvester Stallone says he's focusing more on family and his wife, Jennifer Flavin, in the wake of high-profile divorce proceedings brought by her after 25 years of marriage, now suspended.
Speaking to USA TODAY about his starring role in Paramount+'s upcoming streaming series "Tulsa King," Stallone said his marriage to Flavin is now "better than ever" and cited career commitments as the main problem that led to the marital strain. Stallone, 76, vowed he'll focus on loved ones, including Flavin and the couple's three grown daughters.
"We have a beautiful family that now comes first. Whereas before, it was always strained by me going away for months and months at a time. That's now been put on the back backburner," Stallone, sporting his wedding ring during a Zoom interview, says. Despite the well-documented problems, Stallone insists, "My marriage couldn't be better. My wife is a magnificent: a wonderful, super-attentive woman and a great mother," says Stallone. "She's a great companion. So I'm a very lucky man."
