Just two days after their precious son Jett died, John Travolta and Kelly Preston have spoken about their loss.
John Travolta released the following statement, posted on his official website, saying that he and wife Kelly are "heartbroken" by their sudden loss.
"We would like to extend our deepest and most heartfelt thanks to everyone who has sent their love and condolences.
Jett was the most wonderful son that two parents could ever ask for and lit up the lives of everyone he encountered. We are heartbroken that our time with him was so brief. We will cherish the time we had with him for the rest of our lives. We have received many messages of condolence from around the world and we want to thank everyone for their prayers and support. It has meant so much to us. It is a beautiful reminder of the inherent goodness in the human spirit that gives us ahope for a brighter future.
With love,
John, Kelly and Ella"
Jett, who was named for his father's love of aviation, was John's "heart."
Travolta had previously said of his son, "He's my first, and he's my heart. And he's a very special boy. He's Daddy's boy. And... we spend a lot time together even though I'm pretty busy. He loves the outdoors and he loves to travel.
"He loves being on the plane. We fly in the ultralight together."
Jett, 16, passed away on Friday, after suffering a seizure at the family's vacation home in the Bahamas. Travolta's friend and lawyer said that John did all that he could to try to revive his son. He died in his father's arms.
