John Travolta parenting pride after Kelly Preston, Digi Mart USA News: John Travolta is proud of how he and his late wife, Kelly Preston, raised their children. The 72-year-old actor told ExtraTV how proud he is of his family in an interview published on Thursday, November 12.
“My children are… It’s hard to find the words,” Travolta began. “But every parent dreams that they’d have these ideal children, and they live up and beyond it.
I can leave this lifetime knowing I’ve done well, and Kelly knowing that she did well. I really can say that.”
The Grease star and Preston were married for almost 30 years before she died in 2020, two years after being diagnosed with breast cancer. They shared three children: one daughter, Ella Bleu, 26, and two sons, Jett, who died at age 16 in 2009, and Benjamin, 15.
Preston would have turned 64 this year. The Hairspray actor honored her birthday by posting videos on Instagram of Ella Bleu’s Paris Fashion Week debut.
He captioned the post, “Look at your baby girl now Kelly!! Happy birthday, you should be so proud!!”
Travolta spoke to the Italian publication La Repubblica in June about working with his daughter on his film Propeller One-Way Night Coach. He starred in and directed the movie.
“I dedicated the film to Kelly, to my son Jett, to my brothers and sisters, to my mother and my father, because they are the model from which this film was born,” he told the outlet.
The newspaper asked him how he stays hopeful despite dealing with tragedy in his life. He explained that “life has certainly tested me,” but that his “nature is to look for the positive, even in the face of the worst.”
“I’m not made to remain absorbed in the darkness,” Travolta added. “I can look at the darkness, but I don’t choose to die in that darkness.”
Propeller One-Way Night Coach is now available to stream on Apple TV.
