Travolta, 66, took to Instagram to share the heartbreaking news with his followers. “It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you that my beautiful wife Kelly has lost her two-year battle with breast cancer,” he shared alongside a photo of Preston. “She fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many.” 

“My family and I will forever be grateful to her doctors and nurses at MD Anderson Cancer Center, all the medical centers that have helped, as well as her many friends and loved ones who have been by her side,” he continued.

“Kelly’s love and life will always be remembered,” he said. “I will be taking some time to be there for my children who have lost their mother, so forgive me in advance if you don’t hear from us for a while. But please know that I will feel your outpouring of love in the weeks and months ahead as we heal. All my love, JT.”  

BUT… WHY? JOHN TRAVOLTA UNVEILS POSSIBLY THE WORST HAIRCUT IN HISTORY!

The Grease star and Preston met while filming The Experts in 1987. Four years later, they got married. The Hollywood stars shared three children — Ella, 20, Benjamin, 9, and Jett, who died at 16 years old in 2009 after suffering a seizure.

Ella also wrote a tribute to her mother after her untimely death on social media. “I have never met anyone as courageous, strong, beautiful and loving as you,” she admitted. “Anyone who is lucky enough to have known you or to have ever been in your presence will agree that you have a glow and a light that never ceases to shine and that makes anyone around you feel instantly happy. Thank you for being there for me no matter what.” 

“Thank you for your love,” she continued. “Thank you for your help and thank you for making this world a better place. You have made life so beautiful and I know you will continue to do so always. I love you so much mama.”
