Kelly Preston’s death after a courageous two-year fight against cancer brought a devastating end to John Travolta and Kelly Preston’s marriage, which had the potential to be the subject of a best-selling memoir. However, the couple’s marriage was cut tragically short when Kelly Preston passed away. Now, Travolta devotes his time and energy to raising their children on his estate in Florida, and he is not yet ready to let love into his heart.

John Travolta and Kelly Preston’s initial encounter happened onscreen, as is the case with the majority of Hollywood love tales. During the screen test for the 1989 comedy “The Experts,” the stage was set for the two, and it would become one of the most desirable romances in the history of Hollywood.

However, Preston was still married to “SpaceCamp” star Kevin Cage when they first met. In spite of this, she would eventually admit that she was not very content in her marriage.

After a brief marriage of barely two years, Preston and Cage divorced each other in the year 1985. After that, Preston had a few high-profile relationships, including short stints with George Clooney and Charlie Sheen, before ultimately settling down with John Travolta, the man she would spend the rest of her life with.

Preston said that it was “kinda” love at first sight for her and Travolta, and as soon as she was single again after terminating her relationship with Sheen in 1990, Travolta lost no time in pursuing her romantically. After he swooped in and knocked her off her feet, the two of them dove headfirst into a whirlwind romance that would eventually lead to marriage and children.

When Travolta proposed to Preston on New Year’s Eve, he gave her a ring that had a six-carat yellow-and-white diamond. This was no ordinary proposal. The proposal came as somewhat of a surprise, and according to reports, Preston shouted in response when Travolta asked her to marry him.

Those who were closest to them were able to see the evident delight on both of their faces thanks to the happiness that their relationship offered them. A member of the “Can’t Let You Go” actor’s family was quoted as saying, “I’ve never seen Johnny happier,” and went on to say the following:

“I suppose it’s a matter of time. Both John and Kelly are prepared to start a family at this point.

In addition, Preston’s mother agreed that her daughter had a history of dating troubled young men, but she acknowledged that her daughter’s relationship with Travolta was unique. She said, “[He] is so kind and loving and generous,” and she praised him for these qualities.

The proposal in Switzerland was quickly followed by the couple’s surprise wedding at the Hotel de Crillon in Paris, as well as a second ceremony in Daytona Beach, which took place in Florida. When they tied the knot, Preston was already two months along in her pregnancy with the couple’s first child, Jett, whom they welcomed into the world in 1992.

The couple seemed to have a happy marriage and was consistently infatuated with one another. Preston would often brag about her spouse and the love that they shared, and she would even sometimes reveal the key to their picture-perfect marriage. During an interview with “Good Morning America,” the actress from “Gotti” said that open communication was the secret to the longevity of her and her husband’s marriage. In addition to this, she stressed the significance of putting effort into the marriage:

“Keep it enjoyable. It is not something that occurs on its own. You’ve gotta work on it.”

The “Two of a Kind” actor was the recipient of some great comments from Preston, and she also shared some of the things that stand out to her most about her spouse. She said that she loved everything about him, including his laugh, his hips, how much fun he was, and even how much they enjoyed dancing together.

Their love blossomed to new heights in the year 2000 when they became parents to a second child, a girl named Ella Bleu. They were a sight to see in every sense of the word. The advent of their daughter provided them with even more joy, and the gratification that came from helping each other raise their children was very important to them.

They were together for a long time, but throughout that time they never lost sight of how important it was to value their love for one another and they made sure to find time to be together whenever possible. It was customary for the two to celebrate each other’s birthdays and anniversaries, and they would often deliver heartfelt speeches on these occasions.

At the One World, One Child Benefit Concert in 2002, Travolta surprised Preston by giving her a luscious cake for her 40th birthday. The cake was presented to her by Travolta. On the other side, Preston acknowledged Travolta’s affection for him and used Instagram to express his gratitude for the couple’s accomplishments, including the couple’s 28th wedding anniversary.

In the long message, which was accompanied by a picture of the couple holding hands, Preston referred to Travolta as “the most wonderful man,” and she added:

“You have loved me patiently and unconditionally, given me hope when I felt lost, and given me hope when I felt lost… made me laugh harder than any other human being could ever do… shared the most exquisite highs and, at times, the lowest lows.”

She complimented him on being an excellent parent, thanked him for making her life enjoyable, and said that she had complete faith in him as a partner. She knew that as long as she had him by her side, she would be OK no matter what. She signed off the message with the words, “I love you completely and irrevocably.”

Travolta also made his love for his wife known by sending a brief but heartfelt statement on their big day, in which he wished his “wonderful wife” a happy 28th anniversary. In the message, Travolta referred to his wife as “wonderful.”

Their marriage was one of a kind in that it lasted for a very long period, was full of love for one other, and had an appreciation that has stood the test of time. Sadly, they were only able to have a brief period of bliss before they were rocked by a terrible event that occurred in their family in 2009.
