Be it Dwayne Johnson or Sylvester Stallone, the toughest action heroes are nothing but softies when it comes to their daughters. While on one hand, The Rock is having tea parties with his little baby girls, on the other hand, Sylvester Stallone can be seen giving his three daughters the best lives they could ever imagine.
Sylvester Stallone’s daughters were clearly born with a silver spoon in their mouths thanks to their dad being one of the most beloved entertainment industry personalities. While giving an insight into what it’s like being The Italian Stallone’s daughter, Sophia Rose Stallone revealed the burden that comes with her surname.
Sylvester Stallone’s Daughter Talks about Being a Stallone
Taking a page out of The Kardashians’ diary, Sylvester Stallone, too, let cameras inside his house for the reality show, The Family Stallone. Thanks to the show, Stallone’s fans got a peek inside their favorite actor’s personal life and realized just how different he is from his on-screen personas.
The one thing that stood out to the fans was just how much Stallone loves his three daughters, Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlet Stallone. In fact, the only reason the Rambo actor said yes to the reality show was to please his daughters. Talking to USA Today, Stallone said, “I was like, ‘Reality? I don’t know if I fit into that world. But I’d do anything for my daughters.”
Being a Stallone comes with its own perks with the actor’s net worth being around $400 million. Clearly, his daughters don’t have to worry about anything when it comes to finances. After all, their wishes are his commands. However, his eldest daughter, Sophia Stallone, believes there are some drawbacks to being who she is. In The Family Stallone, Sophia can be heard saying,
“I’ve always had the pressure of being very perfect. With the lifestyle I have, it’s incredibly hard. Being a Stallone, it holds a lot of weight.”
Talk about first-world problems, right? Meanwhile, the girls can be seen enjoying their lives to the fullest and you only have to go as far as their Instagram accounts to see it for yourself.
The Only Time Sylvester Stallone Won’t Be a Cool Dad
Just like any other (over)protective father in the world, Stallone has a tough time accepting the fact that his little girls have a love life. Sophia stated that her father told a boy in fifth grade that his daughter had moved to Egypt for two years when all he wanted was her help with History homework.
In the first episode of The Family Stallone, Sistine Stallone stated,
“Dating when you have the dad that we do is rough. The first time a boy came over to meet my parents, he’s going for the first kiss, and I was so nervous, but I was excited. And he looks up at the balcony and he goes, ‘Oh my God, what is that?’ It was my dad. Standing on the second-floor balcony backlit so you just see a silhouette. He’s so cinematic in the most unnecessary reasons.”
After witnessing the scary moment, the boy drove away and never looked back. Sistine continued that having ‘Stallone’ in their names and an intimidating dad often proves to be a boulder between them and their love lives. Well, who would want to risk hurting Rocky’s daughters?
You can stream The Family Stallone season one on Paramount+. Season 2 will be released on February 21.
