The romance began almost a year ago, when Danish Model Brigitte Nielsen sent her muscular movie hero a fan letter, along with a photograph. Last week Sylvester Stallone, 39, married Nielsen, 22, in a private civil ceremony attended by 30 close friends and relatives at the Beverly Hills home of Producer Irwin Winkler. It was the second time down the aisle for both bride and bridegroom, who afterward treated 150 or so guests, including John Travolta, Donna Summer and Bruce Jenner, to a sit-down dinner, followed by dancing to Righteous Brothers' songs performed by Bill Medley. After a twirl on the dance floor that left guests mesmerized, the couple dashed off for a one-day honeymoon at a Los Angeles hotel. Next morning Sly and "Gitte" were back at work on the set of their conjugal star vehicle, Cobra--an action movie, of course. Rocky and Rambo never did have much time for relationships.
