Sylvester Stallone Wishes Wife Jennifer a Happy Birthday in Sweet Instagram Post

Sylvester Stallone marked wife Jennifer Flavin Stallone's birthday with a heartfelt Instagram tribute, reflecting not only on their decades together but also on the rocky moments that nearly kept them apart.

Sylvester Stallone, 79, marked Jennifer Flavin Stallone's special day with a public tribute on Instagram. The post featured a series of photos of the couple through the years, showing moments from their long relationship and family life.

"Happy birthday to my amazing wife @jenniferflavinstallone ❤️ myself and my daughters thank you for making such a beautiful life for us!!," he wrote in the caption.

The couple, who have been married for 27 years, share three daughters — Sophia, 28, Sistine, 26, and Scarlet, 22 — and have weathered some highly publicized ups and downs.

Stallone has looked back with regret on a dramatic breakup in 1994, three years before they wed, when he ended the relationship with a handwritten letter sent via FedEx.

"Who FedExs a breakup letter?" Sean Hannity asked during the first episode of his Fox Nation show "Sean," released on December 3, 2024. Sitting beside his wife, Sylvester replied, "A coward does."

"Thats the most insincere breakup you can get. You put it down in words cause you dont have the guts to do it face to face," he added, explaining that he didnt actually want to break up with her.

"In my profession, or my life, I should say, the way Ive been structured is my history with relationships is an abomination. I couldn't live without her. She is my everything, my sun, my moon, everything," Sylvester said of his wife.

Jennifer has also spoken about the letter in 1994, saying, "He sent me a six-page handwritten letter, in pen. It was pretty sloppy."

She later learned that Sylvester had been involved with supermodel Janice Dickinson, who had given birth to a daughter the previous February. A paternity test determined Sylvester was not the father, and he and Dickinson ended their relationship. Sylvester reconciled with Jennifer in 1995, and the couple married in 1997.

Since then, they had not separated. They've remained devoted to one another, and to raising their daughters the best they could.
