Toni Ann Filiti, the 48-year-old half-sister of “The Expendables 2” star, succumbed to lung cancer on Sunday. She died at their mother Jackie Stallone’s Santa Monica home after choosing to leave UCLA hospital.
“I was holding her in my arms,” Jackie, 90, told reporters. “I had just washed [her] face and told her how pretty she looked, and she just fell asleep … She’s too young to go, but she wasn’t feeling any pain.”
Jackie, an astrologer and psychic, personally broke the news of Toni’s death to her famous son. “He said he can’t take any more pain,” she told newsmen. “He said he’ll always be there for her son. ... What a terrible month – first Sage and now Toni. It’s hard. At least they’re together now in heaven.”
On July 13, the actor’s son Sage Moonblood Stallone was found dead in his Studio City, California, apartment. Authorities said there were no signs of foul play, but there were reportedly numerous pill bottles nearby. Sasha Czack, Sage’s mother and Sly’s first wife, said Sage was in pain after dental surgery. A toxicology report is pending.
