Stallone finds Florida sunshine and fresh air a thrilling new chapter

Sylvester Stallone is thoroughly enjoying his new existence as a resident of Florida.

“I adore it,” Stallone recently conveyed to Fox News regarding the relocation of himself and his wife, Jennifer Flavin, from Los Angeles to Florida in 2024.

“Primarily, the atmosphere consistently feels fresh. We are exceedingly close to the ocean, which brings immense joy to my wife. It brings me joy too, and there’s a unique quality to it. It’s simply so verdant,” the Rocky star further commented.

He further elaborated, “I attended university in the area for a few years. Therefore, I am familiar with the surroundings, but this setting aligns significantly better with my temperament.”

Stallone, aged 79, and Flavin, 57, departed California for Florida approximately two years prior, a transition chronicled in the second season of their Paramount+ reality series, The Family Stallone.

In February 2024, Flavin informed Us Weekly that relocating was “completely” the correct decision for her and Stallone, especially after their three daughters — Sophia, 29, Sistine, 27, and Scarlet, 23 — moved out of their West Coast family residence. (Stallone also has a son, Seargeoh, 46, from his previous marriage to Sasha Czack. The couple's eldest son, Sage, passed away in 2012 at the age of 36.)

“I believe it was the optimal choice for Sly and me since all our daughters now reside on the East Coast, and while we desire proximity to them, they prefer not to be constantly nearby,” Flavin stated. “Moreover, it’s beneficial because we sold the home where they matured, which represented a significant shift. However, I embrace this novel journey. I appreciate transformation.”

Stallone further elaborated to Us, “Once the children depart, the atmosphere of the home transforms. There’s a distinct energy. And you contemplate, ‘Why don’t we embark on something for ourselves? Why not pursue an endeavor we might find exciting, something that could propel us into fresh experiences and challenge our boundaries?’ Because eventually, life becomes routine. You frequent the same eateries, see the same companions, and I thought, ‘I’d like to experience exhilaration when going somewhere.’ And that’s precisely what transpired.”

The marital pair currently lives in Palm Beach, Florida, possessing a sprawling property complete with a private beachfront, as reported by Veranda magazine. Their lavish residence additionally features a dedicated screening room, a fitness center, and a swimming pool, with Stallone having repurposed a hallway into his exclusive art exhibition space. The esteemed actor mentioned his frequent rotation of the art pieces exhibited there.

“I perceive it similarly to a closet. One can only don the same garment so many times before thinking, ‘Goodness, I wonder if this alternative shade would complement it.’ With artwork, you can select a piece that you’ve grown … perhaps not indifferent to, but it no longer utterly captivates you,” the acclaimed Oscar nominee elucidated. “Transfer that piece to a different chamber — and suddenly, you feel revitalized! It’s akin to furnishing: experimenting, rearranging, persistently re-engaging our cognitive processes.”
