Jennifer Flavin says filing for divorce from husband Sylvester Stallone is "sad" but they'll still move forward amicably.
Flavin exclusively tells PEOPLE, "I'm sad to announce that after 25 years of marriage I have filed for divorce from my husband Sylvester Stallone. While we will no longer be married, I will always cherish the more than 30-year relationship that we shared, and I know we are both committed to our beautiful daughters."
"I ask for privacy for our family as we amicably move forward," the businesswoman/model adds.
Stallone, 76, and Flavin, 54, wed in 1997 after first meeting in 1988 at a restaurant in Beverly Hills, California. They share three daughters: Scarlet, 20, Sistine, 24, and Sophia, 25. (Stallone is also a father to son Seargeoh from his previous marriage to Sasha Czack. His oldest son Sage, whom he shares with Starlin Wright, died in 2012.)
Flavin filed a petition "for dissolution of marriage and other relief" from the Rocky actor on Friday at a court in Palm Beach County, Florida.
