John Travolta’s Son Dies in Bahamas


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 8-year-old daughter Ella Bleu.
