Sylvester Stallone‘s daughters are being spoiled rotten by their famous dad, but they’re still fiercely determined to make it by themselves — with insiders exclusively telling Closer they hope to knock the Kardashian family firmly off their perch.
“They’re destined for whatever they want, but their ultimate goal is to achieve superstardom and a big fortune of their own,” says a source. “They’re aiming to use their reality show as the jumping off point.”
The family’s reality television show, The Family Stallone — starring the three-time Oscar nominee, 78, his wife, Jennifer Flavin, and their daughters, Sophia, Sistine and Scarlet — officially premiered on May 17, 2023.
Their family drama, including why Jennifer, 56, filed for divorce (and then changed her mind), played out for the cameras. Since fans of the Stallone family couldn’t get enough of Sly and the ladies in his life, it was renewed for a second season, which premiered in February.
Now, the Stallone girls are looking to expand on their success.
“It would be a no-brainer for them to put out a lot of the same sorts of products the Kardashians have done, like perfume and makeup lines, clothing [and] lifestyle,” says the source. “There’s huge money to be made, and with their dad backing them, the sky is the limit on what they could build.”
According to the insider, “They’re all very ambitious and absolutely stunning and have been told by a lot of people that they have what it takes to be the new reality TV sisters. They’re working with their team to concoct ideas for storylines that could grab people’s attention. They have the looks and the glamor to show off a very aspirational life.”
Adds the source, “It’s just a matter of making it exciting enough to overtake the competition, while still keeping it classy enough to keep their dad happy.”
In February, Sophia revealed that she and Sistine moved to New York City. But before doing so, Sly made them undergo a rigorous bootcamp with Navy SEALs to help prepare them for the East Coast.
“It was the hardest. It was about six hours we were in those woods,” Sistine told The New York Post. “Sophia and I got our asses whooped by these guys. They were the real deal.”
“It was a rigorous routine. Every day at 6 a.m., he would make us eat eggs with ketchup. For some reason, that combination … to bulk up,” Sophia added. “But then it was a lot of sit-ups, pushups, pullups, clean and jerks.”
As for Scarlet, the youngest of the actor’s children, she is a model and an actress, having appeared in 2014’s Reach Me. She also appeared in five episodes of Tulsa King, which her father stars in.
Before Sylvester had his daughters, he welcomed sons Sage and Seargeoh with first wife Sasha Czack.
Sage was Sly’s firstborn and appeared in a couple of movies with his father, including Rocky V and Daylight. Tragically, Sage died of coronary artery disease caused by atherosclerosis on July 13, 2012. For his part, Seargeoh has lived a very private life out of the spotlight.
