Description

On September 17th, 1985, a significant event occurred in celebrity history when actress and model Brigitte Nielsen married action star Sylvester Stallone. The wedding took place at the Beverly Hills home of producer Irwin Winkler, with celebrity guests including Andy Warhol, Talia Shire, and Tony Curtis in attendance.

Nielsen, a Danish actress, and model, had recently gained fame for her role in the film "Red Sonja" and her appearance in the music video for Falco's hit song "Rock Me Amadeus." Stallone, known for his iconic roles in the "Rocky" and "Rambo" franchises, had just divorced his first wife, Sasha Czack, the previous year.

The wedding was a lavish affair, with Nielsen wearing a custom-made white lace gown and Stallone donning a classic black tuxedo. The couple exchanged vows in a romantic outdoor ceremony, surrounded by lush greenery and elegant floral arrangements.

Their marriage captured significant media attention, as both Nielsen and Stallone were at the height of their careers. The couple went on to star together in the 1986 film "Cobra," which further fueled public interest in their relationship.

However, their high-profile union was short-lived. Stallone and Nielsen divorced just 19 months later, in July 1987. Despite the brevity of their marriage, their wedding remains a memorable moment in celebrity history, as it brought together two of the most famous personalities of the 1980s.
