BRIGITTE NIELSEN: IT’S A LONG STORY

Against all odds, Brigitte Nielsen is living happily ever after. Back in the 80’s she was a hot commodity- she started out as a model and landed the leading role in Red Sonja with Arnold Schwarzenegger. In 1985 they had a fling during filming and the next year she married Arnold’s rival (her Cobra costar) Sylvester Stallone. After a total of four husbands and four sons she confessed she had an alcohol problem and entered rehab. Fast forward to 2006 – she married cute (fifteen years younger) Italian waiter Mattia Dessi. She struggled with infertility until she miraculously became pregnant at 55, and gave birth to daughter Frida, now 4. Brigitte and Mattia are still married and living with Frida in Palm Springs.
