Sylvester Stallone is one proud dad.
the legendary rocky other rambo actor has five kids: sons Sage and Seargeoh from his first marriage with actress Sasha Czack, and daughters Sophia, 25, Sistine, 24, and Scarlet, 20, from his marriage to former model Jennifer Flavin.
Despite his busy work schedule, Stallone always seems to find time to celebrate his kids’ milestones, something he struggled to do when Sage and Seargeoh were growing up.
“I make a much better father and husband now than I could have earlier … I sometimes think all men should wait till they’re 50 to settle down,” Stallone told Women’s Day in 2007. “You figure out that it’s not your work and Successes that count, but the kind of life you make for yourself and the people who know you.”
Stallone has continued to employ that mindset, regularly expressing his gratitude for his daughters on social media. “I am a very very lucky man to have such wonderful, loving children who brought me nothing but joy,” he wrote in 2021.

Say Moonblood Stallone
Stallone and Czack welcomed son Sage Moonblood on May 5, 1976, in Los Angeles. In the early years of his life, Sage followed in his dad’s footsteps, even going as far as playing Rocky’s son in Rocky V.
Sage, who had no interest in filmmaking, studied it for a year at the North Carolina School of the Arts before moving back to LA to act alongside Stallone in the 1996 thriller daylight. Despite working with his famous dad, the two had very different personalities.
“Sage has chosen an entirely different route,” Stallone told PEOPLE in 1996. “He’s interested in a different type of filmmaking. And he avoids the gym like the plague.” “People call me a hermit,” Sage agreed. “But I’m happy.”
On July 13, 2012, Sage died unexpectedly, with reports later confirming that he died of heart disease. “Sage was a very talented and wonderful young man; his loss will be felt forever,” a representative for Stallone said at the time.
Seargeoh Stallone

In 1985, Stallone and Czack established a research fund administered under the National Society for Children and Adults With Autism. “Sasha does the hard, in-the-trenches warfare,” Stallone told PEOPLE for a 1985 cover story. “I use my films to have premieres that raise money for the fund.”
