Stallone, who had no prenuptial agreement with Flavin,denied any wrongdoingin his Aug. 29 response to her filing. On Sept. 21, the court granted an abatement, which pauses divorce proceedings.
Stallone and Flavin — who have been filming an upcoming Paramount+ reality series with their daughters Sophia, 26, Sistine, 24, and Scarlet, 20 — were also thinking about their girls as they discussed reconciling.
“They are both family-oriented,” says a source who knows the couple from the social scene in Palm Beach. “That had a lot to do with their efforts to stay together.”
High-profile divorce attorney Randy Kessler, who does not represent Stallone or Flavin, says he has seen his own famous clients, like formerReal Housewives of AtlantaalumNeNe Leakes, reconcile with a spouse after taking legal action.
“For people in the public eye, they share an even more special bond in many ways. It really is often them against the world. It’s a life few can appreciate,” he tells PEOPLE.
