Living with Sylvester Stallone, the two animals are now full-grown. They were originally adopted by the iconic film star after the filming of the movie was over.

In the film, Rocky Balboa went to the J&M Tropical Fish pet store to buy some food and other things for his two cute turtles, Link and Cuff. That’s where a budding romance with Adrian Pennino, who was a staff at the shop, started.

Cuff and Link gave him an excuse to go to the shop and became a bridge for the two to strengthen their bond. Then, their love grew deeper and moved beyond the shop, thanks to the adorable turtles that opened the door to romance.

Their love, and the film became iconic.
