Actor John Travolta is honoring his late son, Jett on what would have been his 30th birthday. Jett passed away at the age of 16 in January 2009. The family was on vacation and Jett hit his head on the bathtub after suffering from a seizure. John shared Jett with his late wife, Kelly Preston. They have two other children, Ella and Benjamin.

To honor Jett on his birthday, John shared a throwback photo and a very emotional tribute on Instagram. John wrote, “My dearest Jetty, I miss you more than words can say. I think about you everyday. Happy Birthday. Love, your Dad.”

In a few months, it will also be the second anniversary of Kelly’s death. She passed away in the summer of 2020 after a private battle with breast cancer at the age of 57. Kelly decided only to tell her close family and friends about her diagnosis so her death was a shock to many fans.
