John Travolta, who loved aviation as a child, surprised himself by pursuing a different career path. Despite his early fascination with aviation, he followed in his mother’s footsteps and pursued acting, becoming a Hollywood star at 18. Reflecting on his career, Travolta admitted, “If I hit 25 and I’m not making a mark in this business, tell me to do something else.”
Travolta married fellow actor Kelly Preston in 1991, after meeting her during a screen test. Their 28-year marriage ended tragically in 2020 when Preston died of breast cancer. Travolta, devastated by her loss, advised others to “allow them to live it and not complicate it with yours” when helping someone in mourning.
Now, Travolta is focused on his children, celebrating Father’s Day with them this year and receiving love and support from fans. Despite losing his son during a family holiday, Travolta remains a devoted father, ensuring his children’s well-being in a world without their mother.
