Sylvester Stallone Denies Squandering His Assets As Part Of His Divorce Fight Plan
Last week we learned that Sylvester Stallone and his third wife, Jennifer Flavin, were getting a divorce after 25 years of marriage, and all preliminary gossip pointed to dog drama: people initially suspected the couple was dunzo when Sly got his bicep tattoo of Jennifer’s face covered up with his old Rocky dog, Butkus, and, two seconds after he denied this, we learned that 54-year-old Jennifer had filed for divorce. The next day, 76-year-old Sylvester denied reports that the split was triggered by a fight over getting a new Rottweiler named Dwight. Today we have received another Sly-Denial: in court docs seen by People magazine, Sly and his lawyers deny Jennifer’s allegations that he squandered his assets so she couldn’t get receive them in the divorce. OK, but what does this have to do with cute pups? Consistency, people!
TMZ reported that, in her divorce docs, Jennifer accused Sly of hiding and squandering their marital assets:
“Upon information and belief, the Husband has engaged in the intentional dissipation, depletion and/or waste of marital assets which has had an adverse economic impact on the marital estate.”
Today People reports that Sly and his lawyers refuted Jennifer’s accusations in their court documents. They write that he “has not engaged” in that type of behavior. Sylvester also opposed his estranged wife’s request to have “exclusive use” of their home in Palm Beach, Florida.
Jennifer asked the court to note the “conduct of each party” that could potentially lengthen the legal proceedings. She wants “mutual cooperation” encouraged to reduce the cost of their legal fees. In his response, Sly noted that Jennifer “hired counsel to represent her and agreed to pay them.” He agrees that their union is “irretrievably broken,” and doesn’t oppose Jennifer’s petition to restore her maiden name. Um, good? Can a man even legally contest his estranged wife’s name change? “No, she MUST keep my last name! Because… the patriarchy!”
Last week, Sylvester, who shares three daughters with Jennifer, Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlet, told TMZ:
“We just went in different directions. I have the highest respect for Jennifer,” added Stallone. “I will always love her. She’s an amazing woman. She’s the nicest human being I’ve ever met.”
Jennifer told People that she was sad to announce the end of their marriage, adding: “I will always cherish the more than 30-year relationship that we shared, and I know we are both committed to our beautiful daughters.”
But back to these assets. What does Jennifer think Sylvester is hiding? Does it have anything to do with this nude latex Sylvester Stallone doll recently discovered at an antique store in Australia?:

I know they say naked Sly doll came from old Planet Hollywood restaurants, but methinks that’s conspiracy bullshit. Sylvester Stallone probably has hundreds of these dolls. The moment things went south with Jennifer, he filled them up with liquid gold (that’s why they’re so heavy), and shipped them off to random antique stores and flea markets across the globe. Sly knows these babies are too horrifying for anyone to actually buy, so he’ll let them hide in plain sight until the divorce is finalized. Then it’s time to bring them home. It’s the perfect crime!
