Travolta and Preston tragedy
The son of actors John Travolta and Kelly Preston died today. He was 16 years old. Jett was vacationing with his parents.
According to TMZ, there have been reports that Jett was autistic, though Travolta has denied it, saying he suffers from Kawasaki Syndrome, a condition which often leads to heart disease.
Jett suffered a seizure at his family’s vacation home at the Old Bahama Bay Hotel on Grand Bahama Island. Attempts to revive him were unsuccessful and he died on scene.
Jett is survived by his parents, sister, as well as other relatives.
This is a horrible way to start out the new year. My heart goes out to John Travolta, Kelly Preston and their family. This is an awful thing for the family to go through.
