Sylvester Stallone’s ‘Secret’ Siblings – Including One Who Is 50 Years Younger Than Star

The 77-year-old Rocky star’s private life has been well documented over the years, with his personal woes hitting the headlines. Sylvester is dad to five kids – Sage and Seargeoh from his first marriage to Sasha Czack, and daughters Sophia, 27, Sistine, 25, and Scarlet, 21, from his marriage to Jennifer Flavin – but he suffered a devastating loss just 12 years ago.

His son Sage passed away at the age of 36 from heart problems, and the heartbroken movie star has never commented on his son’s tragic death. And in 2022, he and second wife Jennifer temporarily parted ways, with the former model filing for divorce, but she was persuaded to give her husband another chance, and she called off the divorce one month later.

So, it’s no surprise that the Rambo star’s extended family has just as much drama. Sylvester was born in 1946 to father Frank Stallone Sr, and mother Jackie Stallone. The former Celebrity Big Brother star remarried three more times after splitting from Frank Sr, while her ex-husband and former hairdresser-turned-actor also remarried three times.

Sylvester has only one full biological sibling – his young brother Frank Stallone. The actor and composer has had a hugely successful career of his own, and has even composed music for many of his big brother’s blockbuster movies, including Rocky. Frank, who is four years younger than Sylvester, has also starred alongside his big brother in films including three Rocky movies, as well as Staying Alive and Get Carter.

Frank, who has been nominated for a Golden Globe and a Grammy, was also the subject of a documentary in 2021. Stallone: Frank, That Is followed the musician’s Hollywood career, and even featured an appearance from Sylvester. The composer has also spoken about his decision to focus on music, and he told Fox News: “I believe this is my journey. This is what I’m meant to do. I’ve always enjoyed it. It was always easy for me.”

Toni D’Alto is Sylvester’s younger half-sister from his mother Jackie’s marriage to Anthony Filiti, and was born in 1964. She starred in the 1996 thriller The Appointment, but her acting career was tragically cut short as she sadly passed away in her mother’s arms in August 2012. Toni, who was just 48 when she died, was diagnosed with lung cancer that had spread to her brain, and she passed away just weeks after Sylvester’s son Sage was found dead.

Not much is known about Sylvester’s half-brother Bryan Stallone, who is from his father’s side. He’s the son of Frank Sr and his fourth wife Kathleen Rhodes. His half-sister Carla Stallone, who is the daughter of Frank Sr and Kathleen, is not in the public eye, and it’s not known if Sylvester has a relationship with his father’s children.

Dante Stallone is the youngest of Frank Sr and Kathleen, and the 23-year-old was a student at Florida State University. In 2018, he cashed in on his famous surname and purchased a share in Celebrity Farms, and now reportedly owns a young male horse called Celebrity Stallone.

His social media accounts haven’t been updated since 2022, when one post drew the attention of his followers. Sharing a snap of him wakeboarding with pals, one touched upon his family history and commented: “Beastmode bro got them Stallone genetics!!”

In 2016, the then 19-year-old was viciously attacked in Florida, and was taken to hospital with a shattered jaw and broken teeth. At the time, Sly shared his sadness over the incident, and told TMZ: “This is a wonderful young man, a straight-A student who would not cause any trouble. It’s just so tragic and terribly sad.”
