The two incidents together made netizens and media outlets believe that the couple could be having marriage problems, but Stallone’s representative shot down the idea, saying, “Mr Stallone intended to refresh the tattoo image of his wife Jennifer, however, the results were unsatisfactory and, unfortunately, unfixable.

“As a result, he had to cover the original image with a tattoo of his dog from Rocky, Butkus. Mr Stallone loves his family. The Stallones are presently filming a reality show together, which will debut on Paramount+.”

In fact, the couple had just celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary and Stallone hailed his wife as an “incredible, selfless woman”, according to aceshowbiz.com.

Jennifer Flavin started off as a model

Flavin started modelling at the age of 19, signing with Elite Modeling Agency, TV Over Mind reported. She went on to become highly successful in the field and earned around USD$5,000 a day, according to the article.

During the height of her modelling career, she had signed with several major brands including MCM Luggage and Revlon. She also appeared on the covers of Cosmopolitan and Marie Claire UK in 1992.

She appeared in Rocky V with her husband

Though Flavin is rarely spotted on the silver screen – unlike her A-lister husband – she did appear alongside Stallone in Rocky V, playing a delivery girl. She has also just been cast in upcoming film The No Name Gang, according to her IMDB page.

She is a businesswoman

Flavin’s early career as a model inspired her to become an entrepreneur. She founded her own cosmetic brand called Serious Skincare as a result of a problem she repeatedly came up against in the industry. Flavin is said to have suffered from constant breakouts during important shoots, so she eventually decided to create an acne-clearing range of products that also work as an anti-ageing solution, as per CelebSuburb.

The product got so popular that it became the longest-running anti-ageing product line in Home Shopping Network’s history, and produced over US$2 billion in sales, as per glowingbeautynow.com.

Her net worth
