John Travolta Joins His Loved Ones in Ringing in the New Year


During the holidays, John Travolta is having the finest time of the year.

On Tuesday, the Grease star, 69, shared a video montage on Instagram with his two children, Ella Bleu, 23, and Benjamin, 13. The video began with Travolta’s daughter spinning around in a dimly lit room with a Christmas tree and decorations visible in the background, and was set to his rendition of Come Rain or Come Shine.

“Happy New Year!! Thank you for always being there for us! Love John Ella and Ben!” he captioned the video.

Ella posed with her father and younger brother at several occasions throughout the video. In the shot they took with Ben, they were both smiling and lifting their arms in front of a Christmas tree. During their flight, the youngest was curled up on his father’s knee in the last photo.

John Travolta had three children with his late wife, actress Kelly Preston. Jett, their eldest son, was born in April 1992.

Jett died in January 2009, at the age of 16, after suffering a seizure induced by a tumble at their family’s home in the Bahamas. Kelly Preston died in 2020 at the age of 57 after being diagnosed with breast cancer.
