Sylvester Stallone and wife Jennifer Flavin were among the people to lend their support to the amfAR Palm Beach Gala in Palm Beach, Florida.
The annual event is part of the non-profit’s fundraising efforts in its mission ‘to end the global AIDS epidemic through innovative research,’ according to amfAR website.
Hosted by actress Julianna Margulies, with a special performance by the one and only Sting, the evening included a cocktail reception, dinner, live auction, award presentations and performances.
This year the festivities included a celebration of Dionne Warwick for her trailblazing HIV/AIDS activism, and Dee Ocleppo Hilfiger, who’s recognized as a philanthropic force.
amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research, is one of the world’s leading nonprofit organizations dedicated to the support of AIDS research, HIV prevention, treatment education, and advocacy.
Flavin, 55, showed off her fashion sense, looking elegant in a black dress with a slit in the front to allow her to flaunt her legs at any given moment.
The gorgeous number also featured a plunging neckline and sheer-patterned upper sleeves.
The model and entrepreneur also got a slight lift to her 5ft9in figure by wearing a pair of black open-toe heels.
She would accessorize with an assortment of rings, earrings and necklace, while styling her light brown tresses straight, long and flowing with blunt bangs.
The Los Angeles native held on to her husband’s right arm for most of their time in the red carpet spotlight.
Stallone, 77, looked fit and stylish in a chic blue suit that he matched with a dress shirt with a lighter shade of blue and black and gray shoes.
The Rocky and Rambo icon had his salt-and-pepper hair cut short and pushed back off his face, along with a manicured goatee.
The couple, who nearly divorced in 2022 after 25 years of marriage, are among the many people who decided to pack up and leave the state of California, ultimately deciding to relocate and settle in Florida.
Stallone has been married three times. He has two sons: Sage, who died from heart disease in 2012 at the age of 36, and Seargeoh, 45, from his first marriage to Sasha Czack.
The longtime Hollywood leading man and Flavin are also the proud parents of three daughters Sophia, 27, Sistine, 25, and Scarlett, 21, who are all featured on the family’s realty TV show The Family Stallone on Paramount +.
Stallone and Flavin first met at a West Hollywood restaurant in 1988.
They would date for several years before Stallone called off the relationship in 1994 in a letter saying that he was having an affair with model Janice Dickinson, and that he was the father of her infant daughter.
However, after DNA tests had shown that he was not the father, the relationship ended.
Flavin reconciled with Stallone in 1995, and eventually they were married on May 1997, in a civil ceremony at The Dorchester Hotel in London, England, which was followed by a chapel ceremony at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire.
On Friday, the actor took to his Instagram page and shared a couple of photos of himself behind the wheel of a 1959 convertible Cadillac, with the simple caption, ‘Italian Stallion.’
He also posted a photo of the family in a promo photo for The Family Stallone reality series.
