Hollywood icon Sylvester Stallone (Rocky, Rambo) and his family landed their own reality TV series, The Family Stallone, on Paramount+, home of Stallone’s new dramatic series, Tulsa King. On The Family Stallone, Stallone reveals what it’s like to live in a household of women, which includes his wife of 26 years, former model Jennifer Flavin Stallone, and their three daughters, Sistine, Sophia, and Scarlet.
Before Stallone married Flavin in 1997, he was married to his former movie co-star Brigitte Nielsen from 1985 to 1987. The stunning 6-foot-tall blonde Danish actress starred with Stallone in the 1985 film Rocky IV, as Ludmilla Vobet Drago, wife of Russian boxer Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren).
When Nielsen recently shared the photos below, of her modeling a sheer orange bodycon dress with heels, she captioned it: “Do I have your attention now?”
German-born supermodel and America’s Got Talent judge Heidi Klum replied with a fire emoji. As seen below in a recent issue of the iconic fashion magazine Vogue, Nielsen still models professionally.
Fun facts: Nielsen also shared the screen with Stallone in the 1986 movie Cobra. She played Ingrid Knudsen, the model and businesswoman who witnessed a murder and is under the protective custody of LAPD’s Lt. Marion “Cobra” Cobretti (Stallone).
She also reprised her Rocky IV role as Ludmilla for Creed II in 2018. Swipe the movie premiere photos above to see her with Stallone, Lundgren, and Creed star Michael B. Jordan.
