John Travolta Remembers Wife Kelly Preston in Heartfelt Tribute After Her Death
John Travolta is mourning the death of his wife Kelly Preston.
The 66-year-old actor took to Instagram on Sunday night (July 12) to mourn the death of the actress, after it was announced that she died at 57-years-old after a two-year battle with breast cancer.
“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,” John wrote. “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.
John and Kelly married back in 1991. She is survived by their kids Ella, 20, and Benjamin, 9. Their son Jett died 16-years-old back in 2009.
“Kelly’s love and life will always be remembered,” John continued. “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”
