Sylvester Stallone cuts a casual figure as he steps out for lunch with burly bodyguard

Sylvester Stallone cut a casual figure as he stepped out with burly bodyguard in Milan, Italy on Monday.

The actor, 76, wore a navy blue T-shirt and a pair of denim jeans which he teamed with some colourful red and blue cowboy boots.

Hollywood heavyweight Sly shielded his eyes behind a pair of silver mirrored sunglasses as he headed to lunch. 

His salt and pepper hair was swept to one side and he appeared in good spirits during his trip to Europe.

The star walked slightly in front of his taller bodyguard who towered over him in height.

Sylvester’s minder kept a look out while he too dressed casually in a black polo shirt and a pair of beige shorts.

He completed his look with a black baseball cap and a matching pair of trainers.  

Sylvester put his domestic disputes to one side on Sunday as the actor made a welcome appearance at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza.

The actor, whose separation from wife Jennifer Flavin, 54, was confirmed in August, was in a buoyant mood as he made his way across the paddock for an informal chat with the Red Bull team.

He looked relaxed as he greeted onlookers before introducing himself to Red Bull Racing Team Principal Christian Horner, the husband of Spice Girl Geri Horner.

The musclebound star, best known for his role as punch-drunk boxer Rocky Balboa, is going through a rocky patch after Flavin, his wife of 25-years and the mother of his three daughters, filed for divorce.  

According to divorce documents obtained by DailyMail.com, she claims Stallone ‘has engaged in the intentional dissipation, depletion and/or waste of marital assets which has had an adverse economic impact on the marital estate.

‘Moreover, the Husband should be enjoined from, selling, transferring, assigning, encumbering, or dissipating any assets during the pendency of proceedings.’

Jennifer, who took her husband’s last name, is also seeking to restore her maiden name, Flavin.  

‘I love my family. We are amicably and privately addressing these personal issues,’ Sly told DailyMail.com in a statement via his publicist.

However Flavin said in divorce docs: ‘The marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken.’

The former couple married on May 17, 1997 at the posh Dorchester Hotel in London, and with Stallone’s reputation as a playboy, few predicted they would last long.  

‘I’m not naïve about what may go on when I’m not around – he’s a 45-year-old man – I can’t change the way he is,’ Flavin told People at the time.

All over: Jennifer Flavin has filed for divorce from Stallone after 25 years of marriage 

‘Still, he’s not a cheating dog every day of the week,’ she added. ‘We spend five out of seven nights together, so I don’t know where he’d find the time.’

But last it did and just this May they celebrated their silver wedding anniversary. The marriage produced three daughters, Sophia, now 25, Sistine, 24, and Scarlet, 20.

He also had two sons with first wife Sasha Czack, Sage, who died of coronary artery disease in 2012 aged 36, and Seargeoh, 43.
