Arnold Schwarzenegger on Sage Stallone’s demise

Schwarzenegger shared his grief summed up in words for Sylvester and his family. He said, “My thoughts and prayers are with Sly and his family. Sly has become a great friend over the past couple decades, and I know how important his children are to him. I want him to know that my family and I, and his fans all over the world, support him during this difficult time.”

Being the father of three sons, Arnold was able to understand the pain deeply. However, the death of his son completely broke Sylvester. Sage Stallone was discovered dead at his home with bottles and prescription medication. In addition, after some tests, sedative hydrocodone was found in his system.

When he passed away from an Artery-blocking ailment, he was 36 years old.

A friend of Sage, George Braunstein, revealed, “We were just joking about how he was going to get married and have a fun marriage. There was nothing dark or depressing, no problems, certainly no financial problems. I’m going to wait to see what the coroner says. I think it was either natural causes or a terrible accident. I don’t think it had anything to do with drugs, he wasn’t that kind of guy. He wasn’t anyone trying to take his life.” 

Sylvester having Arnold’s back

Earlier, a similar gesture was reciprocated by Sylvester in 2011, when he extended support to Schwarzenegger as he was going through a divorce. This happened after Arnold and his ex-wife Maria, who got married in April 1986, went through a separation in 2011. This happened when Maria found out about Arnold’s affair with the housekeeper. 

After the news of separation spread in the media, Sylvester took Arnold out for lunch. As per the source of Daily Mail, the bodybuilder was seen smoking a cigar and laughing with Stallone.
