Sylvester Stallone said on his reality TV show “The Family Stallone” that he and wife Jennifer Flavin are “permanently” trading in the Golden State for the Sunshine State.

The hordes fleeing California’s high crime and high taxes for Florida and other states have been joined by the world’s toughest (fictional) fighter — Rocky Balboa.

“After long, hard consideration, your mother and I have decided, time to move on and leave the state of California permanently, and we’re going to go to Florida,” Mr. Stallone told his three adult daughters — Scarlet, Sistine and Sophia — on the premiere episode of the Paramount Plus show’s second season.

In the episode titled “Say Goodbye to Hollywood” (after a Billy Joel song), Mr. Stallone tells his girls that the family will cease its bicoastal lifestyle — the actor bought the $35.4 million lakefront home in Palm Beach in 2021.

“We’re gonna sell this house. We already have the place, it’s a done deal,” he states.

Although Mr. Stallone didn’t give an explicit reason — and Ms. Flavin has downplayed crime concerns in the past — that didn’t stop the wife of the Florida governor from doing so.

“Welcome to the Free State of Florida!” Casey DeSantis wrote on X while reposting the clip of Mr. Stallone‘s conversation with his daughters from the show.
