Sylvester Stallone, one of the world’s most well-known actors, has been able to sustain his career for many years by appearing in critically acclaimed films all around the world. He is adored by everyone.

Do you, however, know his mother? Who exactly is Jackie Stallone? She is not just Sylvester Stallone’s mother, but she also has an extraordinary life story.

Jackie Stallone was an intriguing lady who enjoyed cosmetic operations but was open and honest about it. She was born in Washington, D.C. in 1921.

Her father, John, was a well-known city lawyer, and her mother was a Brittany-born Parisian socialite of French ancestry.

Jackie decided to leave her home at the age of 15 to join the Flying Wallenda’s performance for the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus since she was such an athletic and energetic young woman.

Her father was dissatisfied with her decision to follow her passion of being an acrobat since he wanted her to become a well-known lawyer.

Jackie, who had previously worked as a trapeze artist, was lucky to be able to pursue her dream of performing on stage and landing a job on Broadway. She later returned to her hometown and established an exercise program on a local television channel.

Even if none of this seems significant now, Jackie was able to build her own path at the time by rejecting some conventional notions and ideals.

Jackie was the first woman in Washington, D.C., to host a fitness-related television show in the 1950s. Jackie chose to create her own women-only gym because it was difficult for women to do many things at the time, including coming to the gym.

She claimed that the authorities spent a significant amount of time attempting to shut down her business since it had an unpopular statue of a woman doing weights at the time.

Jackie met hairstylist-turned-occasional-actor Frank Stallone Sr. for the first time in 1945. Sylvester Stallone was born the following year.

Jackie claimed that the baby’s physique was affected since the physicians’ activities during the birth were improper and the labor was exceedingly difficult.

Despite the fact that Sylvester’s face was half paralyzed and his tongue, lips, and chin were damaged, Jackie opted to continue so that her son could communicate normally.

Jackie and Frank divorced after the second kid was born, leaving her to care for both children on her own. Jackie made an appearance in the wrestling show GLOW: Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling. She began her work as an astrologer in the 1990s and quickly rose to prominence in the entertainment sector.

She then wrote the popular astrology book Star Power: An Astrological Guide to Supersuccess. In the years thereafter, Jackie has made countless television appearances and has even manufactured cosmetics and face masks. Nonetheless, she gained public notice mostly as a result of cosmetic surgery due to how severely her appearance was changed.

In a 2013 interview, Jackie claimed to have had over 50 injections and three chemical peels, however it is unclear how many cosmetic treatments she actually underwent.

Jackie continued to have these treatments even when she turned 91, but after a few more years, she voiced regret for having so many done.

When Jackie admitted that she had inflated the amount of filler, the media slammed her appearance. She was one of the few persons who recognized the entire scope of her procedures as well as the ultimate need to put an end to them.

Despite the fact that she had to undergo multiple treatments, Jackie maintained a healthy lifestyle and continued to participate in sports.

Jackie’s son Frank stated in September 2020 that she had died at the age of nearly 100. Jackie died peacefully at her Los Angeles home.
