‘You have to exhale and take time out. There isn’t anybody’s relationship that is perfect and happy all the time. Live with those people and see if you can handle their ups and downs, their mood swings, their quirks. I mean, everybody has their quirks.

‘I am very A type and my husband is not very A type. He is very messy and I am not. So it’s like, “Can I live with messy?” ’

Ms Flavin, who was working on TV shopping channels when they met, added: ‘Even when I met Sly he was his own person and he had his own money and I had to make my own. So it was not like we co-mingled our money. I paid my own taxes and my own bills and he paid his own. I did not want anything from him and he did not need anything.’

In a statement, Stallone, 76, said that he loved his family and that they were ‘amicably and privately addressing these issues’.
