Stallone, 76, and Flavin, 54, have been married since May 1997 and share three adult daughters--Sophia Stallone, 25, Sistine Stallone, 24, and Scarlet Stallone, 20.
News of the couple's divorce filing comes days after tattoo artist Zach Perez shared photos of himself tattooing Stallone's bicep with a sketch of Butkus, his "Rocky" character Rocky Balboa's bull mastiff, over an existing tattoo of Flavin's face.
Perez later deleted the pics and the actor's rep told the Daily Mail, "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."

Sophia commented, "You are our rock, cheerleader, and most incredible mom. We are so lucky to have you...love you so much."
