'Long-legged airhead': Sylvester Stallone's mom Jackie ALWAYS OPPOSED son marrying Jennifer Flavin
According to reports, Sylvester Stallone's mom Jackie Stallone had pleaded with him to not marry his third wife, Jennifer Flavin. The 'Rocky' actor's mom, who died at the age of 98 in September 2020, was fearless in expressing her disgust for the majority of Sylvester's girlfriends and love interests.
Shortly after Flavin started dating Sylvester, his mother remarked, "I’m tired of long-legged airheads. California is filled with them—airheads looking for a place to land. She’s pretty, but I like a mind. She can be grateful that Sly made her a model. He’s made more models than the Ford agency. "

Sylvester was described as the loneliest person on the planet by his mother shortly after he started dating Flavin. Mama Stallone said at that time, "No woman is good enough for Sylvester, but if he insists on marrying again, it should be marriage, Italian-style. He should have a European wife who’ll cater to all his aches and pains. Her job should be to give birth and specialize in acupressure because he loves acupressure. "
Jackie has always been brutally honest about the women in Sly's life, especially the first two brides of her son. "I was bitterly opposed to both of his wives. They weren’t good enough for him," she once said. Sasha Czack, Sylvester's first wife and the mom of his two kids, Sage, who died in 2012 at the age of 36, and Seargeoh, now 43, to Mama Stallone, was merely a girl who hitched a ride from New York to Los Angeles so that she could babysit his dogs. Jackie also claimed that after Sylvester starred in the film "Rocky", Sasha wanted alimony of $20 million.
Brigitte Nielson, Sly's second wife, was likewise hated by Jackie, to the point where she even referred to her as a pig. "Sylvester was standing right there. I said, ‘Let me tell you something, you big pig. If you ever hurt my kid in any way, I will personally mash you," she said at that time.
When Flavin and Sylvester began dating before deciding to get married in May 1997, Jackie's distaste for the women in her son's life remained the same. According to an informant of Radar, "Jackie never gelled with Jennifer. She always put on a happy face, but she never trusted her." Flavin ended her 25-year marriage to Sylvester on August 19 after seeking a divorce in Florida's Palm Beach County. The announcement of the couple's divorce was not made public until Wednesday, August 24, despite the prevailing clues and speculation about their breakup, such as Sylvester erasing a tattoo of Flavin from his arm and Flavin unfollowing Stallone on social networking sites.
