Brigitte Nielson shades ex Sylvester Stallone and claims marriage to actor feels like 'it never happened'
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Brigitte Nielson has moved past her divorce from Sylvester Stallone. The sixty-year-old actress recently reflected on her brief union with the actor, whom she met while filming 'Rocky IV' and 'Cobra'.
She said, "[My marriage] to Sylvester Stallone was so long ago, I never think about him. Sometimes it feels like it never even happened."
Brigitte Nielson has no idea what Sylvester Stallone is doing
She said with a laugh, "I have no idea what that guy is up to. You move on, you know? You're so busy doing other things that it can be like, 'Wait, what was his name again?'”
Nielson also called the duo's 2018 comeback for the film 'Creed' "professional."
Nielson welcomed their daughter Frida, who is five years old, that same year with her spouse Mattia Dessi, whom she wed in 2006, Ok! magazine reports.
"I waited a long time for Frida," she explained, adding that she underwent 13 years of IVF before she and Dessi, 45, finally had success.
Brigitte Nielson 'totally misses' acting
Nielson acknowledged that, despite her happiness with her family, she wishes she could return to the spotlight.
"I totally miss acting. I still get a lot of action scripts, and I'm actually producing an action movie. But I would love to do something that's a comedy, something fun and upbeat that's not on location in Thailand for six months. I don't know if that exists or would come my way, but I'm open to everything," Nielson says.
She also disclosed that she has been putting together a solo performance. "I've seen some things," she stated.
"But I'm writing something that sort of makes fun of myself and the situations I've gotten into. Something that's really uplifting, and also educational at the same time," she added.
Sylvester Stallone married Jennifer Flavin after Brigitte Nielsen split
According to earlier reports from OK! Stallone has also moved on from his romance with Brigitte Nielsen.
The action star married Jennifer Flavin in 1997, and they remain together to this day.
However, the couple experienced a significant setback when Flavin filed for divorce in 2022.
The couple chose to terminate the divorce proceedings soon after the paperwork was submitted, despite their disagreements.
“Sly has promised to be a lot more present and attentive to his wife’s needs, plus he had to eat humble pie and admit to making some terrible choices that led to this horrible situation in the first place. He’s feeling extremely embarrassed by some of his behavior during their split, especially inking over her tattoos and drawing attention to their problems for the whole world to see. In hindsight, he can see this was a childish and thoughtless act and he’s told Jennifer he’s extremely sorry for hurting her feelings,” a source told OK! magazine.
