John Travolta and Kelly Preston’s son, Jett Travolta, died on Friday from a seizure on Grand Bahama Island. Michael Ossi, the family’s lawyer, told Reuters that Jett and the rest of the family were staying at the Old Bahama Bay Hotel when Jett suffered the seizure. While attempts were made to revive him, he died on the scene, Ossi told the press. Rand Memorial Hospital also reported the passing of a teenager, although they were unable to release a name, says TMZ.com.

A member of staff at the hotel– where Travolta owns a few oceanside homes– told Access Hollywood that she was “not allowed to talk about [the incident].” E! Online reports that a policeperson said “Jett apparently banged his head on a bathtub Friday morning,” which may have triggered the seizure.

John Travolta confirmed that his son suffered from Kawasaki Syndrome, although mentions that Jett was autistic have been denied. Travolta and his wife Kelly also have an eight-year-old daughter Ella Bleu.

    condolences to travolta family.i admire john and to his family for the love that they gave to their son jett.
  • I've been a Scientologist for forty years, so just to set any rumors straight we all use normal and standard medical care and procedures just like anyone else. I've met John Travolta and he is one of the kindest souls imaginable. I am extremely heartbroken about his loss and hope that people around the world will let him know how much we care about him at this time.

    Though Scientology is philosophically more similar to Eastern rather than Western religions, there is nothing in the religion that dictates medical procedure. No stone is left unturned about our religious philosophy with all questions answered as to how we view the soul and spirit of man at scientology.org. Rather than guess what we might believe, I invite you to take a look. Thank you.
