The Travoltas have seemingly been spending a lot of quality time with each other over the summer. In July, John shared a glimpse of his Fourth of July celebrations alongside his kids, which included a visit to a New York Yankees game complete with a grand firework show. "Happy 4th of July everyone!!" he captioned the video, showing the joyful moments shared with Ella and Benjamin on their holiday weekend.

The Pulp Fiction star shares Ella and 13-year-old son Benjamin with his late wife, Kelly Preston, who died in 2020 at the age of 57. Preston fought breast cancer privately for over two years, as revealed in a statement by John after she passed. "It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you that my beautiful wife Kelly has lost her two-year battle with breast cancer. She fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many," he said in the emotional Instagram post.

The couple also had a son, Jett, who tragically passed away in 2009 after having a seizure in their hotel bathroom where he fell and hit his head on the bathtub. He was 16 years old.
