John Travolta rose to international fame with iconic films like *Saturday Night Fever* (1977), which skyrocketed his career.
His star shone even brighter with his role in *Grease*.
Born in 1954 in Englewood, New Jersey, John Travolta seemed destined for stardom.
As the youngest in his family, John had big dreams and took the bold step of dropping out of high school to pursue his passion for acting, a decision that paid off handsomely.
Throughout his career, John has featured in numerous acclaimed films, including *Two of a Kind* (1983), *Pulp Fiction* (1994), *Get Shorty* (1995) — which won him a Golden Globe — *Broken Arrow* (1996), *Wild Hogs* (2007), *Gotti* (2018), among others.
In 1991, John married actress Kelly Preston, whom he met while she was still in a previous marriage. Kelly revealed in 2018 that she had been unhappy in her former relationship and felt she wasn’t with the right person.
Tragically, Kelly passed away from breast cancer in July 2020, after nearly 30 years of marriage.
John and Kelly had three children together: Jett, born on April 13, 1992; Ella Bleu, born in 2000; and Benjamin, born in 2010.
Jett, who was diagnosed with autism, sadly passed away in 2009 due to seizures. John’s grief was profound, but he remained dedicated to his other children.
Following in her parents’ footsteps, Ella Bleu pursued a career in acting, expressing immense gratitude for their guidance and support.
After Kelly’s passing, Ella shared heartfelt tributes to her mother, calling her the best person she’d ever known and expressing deep love and gratitude.
Ella and John share a close bond, with Ella often describing her father as the most important person in her life.
John frequently shares his pride in Ella on social media. One particularly touching post featured a video of John dancing with Ella in memory of Kelly, highlighting how much Kelly loved dancing with him.
The strong relationship between John and Ella is heartwarming, emphasizing the importance of family.
