On November 4, he posted a photo of the letter that he had framed on social media. No wonder Kris is such a beloved grandmother, as she gifted the toddler a wonderful present.
Here is the first paragraph of Stallone’s letter to the toddler: “Dear Rocky, My Name is Rocky also. Your name is glorified and is attached to excellent things.”
It went on to give the toddler guidance in life for when they are all grown up. The 78-year-old actor went on to add: ‘Life throws a lot of challenges at you—you are going to need to be committed and resolute! You have to always remember that you should not quit on your dreams. Never! But most importantly, you always put family, friends, and loyalty ahead of fame, and that is a spice of life!”
He ended the missive, “Keep punching, Sly ‘Rocky’ Stallone.” The letter was so impressive to Barker that he posted the on Instagram stories thanking Jenner, and his mother-in-law, calling the letter of one of the best gifts ever.

For those who are unversed, Stallone’s Rocky film, that launched in the year 1976, is a famous sports drama film focusing on the character of Rocky Balboa, a down on his luck boxer who lands a title shot at the heavyweight championship.
The film series planted itself as one of the biggest cultural fixtures for multiple generations, with Rocky II and Rocky V hitting theaters in 1979 and 1990, respectively. Four of the five Rocky sequels were directed and written by Stallone.
