Kelly Preston and John Travolta attend the premiere of Gotti at the SVA Theatre in New York, in 2018
Kelly Preston, who played dramatic and comic foil to actors ranging from Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire to Arnold Schwarzenegger in Twins, died yesterday [Macau time], husband John Travolta said. She was 57.Travolta said in an Instagram post that his wife of 28 years died after a two-year battle with breast cancer.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, Travolta said. She fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many.The couple had three children together.Shocked by this sad news, Maria Shriver said on Twitter. Kelly was such a bright loving soul, a talented actress, and a loving mom and wife. My heart breaks for her family who have already known such sadness and grief.Preston had a lengthy acting career in movies and television, starring opposite Kevin Costner in the 1999 film For the Love of the Game. In 2003, she starred in What a Girl Wants and as the mom in the live-action adaptation of The Cat in the Hat. The following year she appeared in the music video for Maroon 5s She Will Be Loved.Russell Crowe tweeted that he met Preston first in late 92 I think, adding, In 1995 we auditioned together for Breaking Up, Salma Hayek got that gig. Crowe said he hadnt seen Preston much, but when I did, she was always the same sparkly eyed gem.She occasionally appeared in films with her husband, as they did in the box-office bomb Battlefield Earth in 2000.Preston and Travolta were married at a midnight ceremony in Paris in 1991 while the couple were expecting their first son, Jett.In January 2009, Jett Travolta, 16, died after a seizure at the familys vacation home in the Bahamas. The death touched off a court case after an ambulance driver and his attorney were accused of trying to extort $25 million from the actors in exchange for not releasing sensitive information about their sons death.Travolta testified during a criminal trial that ended in a mistrial and was prepared to testify a second time, but decided to stop pursuing the case and it was dismissed. He cited the severe strain the proceedings and his sons death had caused the family.Both Preston and Travolta returned to acting, with Prestons first role back in the Nicholas Sparks adaptation, The Last Song, which starred Miley Cyrus and her future husband, Liam Hemsworth.They had two other children, daughter Ella Bleu in 2000 and son Benjamin in 2010. Ella wrote on Instagram Sunday: I have never met anyone as courageous, strong, beautiful and loving as you. Anyone who is lucky enough to have known you or to have ever been in your presence will agree that you have a glow and a light that never ceases to shine and that makes anyone around you feel instantly happy.Travolta and Preston met while filming 1988s The Experts.They last starred together in the 2018 film Gotti, with Travolta playing John Gotti and Preston playing the crime bosss wife, Victoria.
