John Travolta remembers his late son Jett on what would've been his 33rd birthday


The 71-year-old movie star and late wife Kelly Preston's eldest child tragically died in 2009, at age 16, during a family getaway to the Bahamas

Preston reportedly blamed household cleaners, fertilizers, and pesticides as the cause of Jett's autism spectrum disorder and lobbied for better labeling on chemicals. In 2022, the 54-year-old filmmaker - who fathered a child with Vanderpump Rules alum Lala Kent - was hit with a myriad of disturbing allegations from abusing past assistants to offering roles in exchange for sex, which he denied. The Emmy-winning producer is best known for his roles in Carrie (1976), Saturday Night Fever (1977), Grease (1978), Urban Cowboy (1980), Blow Out (1981), Look Who's Talking (1989), Pulp Fiction (1994), Get Shorty (1995), Face/Off (1997), and Hairspray (2007).
