Sylvester Stallone’s daughters reveal he writes breakup texts for their boyfriends

Sylvester Stallone is a man of many talents and one of them is apparently writing text messages for his daughters to dump their boyfriends.

The Rocky actor, 76, is currently starring in Paramount+ reality TV show The Stallone Family alongside his three daughters Sophia, 26, Sistine, 24, and Scarlet, 20.

Sophie and Sistine revealed their dad’s unique role in their dating lives during an appearance on the Giggly Squad podcast with Hannah Berner and Paige DeSorbo.

“My dad is a savant when it comes to our dating lives – in so many areas. In one area, he writes most of our breakup texts,” explained Sistine.

Sophia confirmed this to be the case and encouraged others to give it a go too, saying: “I highly suggest girls should go up to their dad and have their dad write a breakup text because men know men – I‘m telling you.”

Sistine added: “And they never get mad for being honest.”

In real life, they say the Rambo star can be a little aloof when it comes to meeting their love interests for the first time.

Sistine said: “We’re like, ‘Oh, this [guy] is a good egg, we’re gonna bring him home,’” she said, adding that the Rambo star ‘is always standoffish’ when meeting them.”

She added that he “stands in the corner” and “doesn’t say anything … just to intimidate.”

Sophia noted that her father “always … has a cigar” upon meeting their boyfriends to set the tone, with both saying he is “right every time” when it comes to their romances.

Sistine said: “I asked him, I go, ‘Why do you do that?’ And he goes, ‘I can tell within the first four minutes of meeting if he’s going to last or not, and so I’m not going to waste my time.’”
