Five years after the untimely death of actress Kelly Preston, her husband John Travolta has shared deeply moving insights about her final moments. Preston passed away on July 12, 2020, after a courageous two-year battle with breast cancer, a struggle she faced with remarkable strength and grace, keeping much of her pain private.
In a poignant interview set to air in 2025, Travolta opened up about the heart-wrenching last words exchanged between him and his beloved wife. As he sat by her bedside, holding her hand, she whispered, “I love you and the kids more than anything. Be happy because I will always be watching over you.” These words encapsulated not only her love but also a profound encouragement for her family to continue living joyfully despite her absence.
Throughout her illness, Kelly focused on ensuring her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren felt her unwavering love. She dedicated her final days to imparting life lessons to her daughter, Ella, and ensuring their youngest son, Benjamin, would grow up surrounded by warmth. John revealed that Kelly’s greatest concern was for their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, urging him to promise to take care of them.
Despite her declining health, Kelly’s spirit radiated positivity. She chose to pass away in the comfort of their home, surrounded by her family, rather than in a hospital. Her departure left an irreplaceable void, yet the love she cultivated remains a guiding light for Travolta and their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.
Since her passing, Travolta has honored Kelly’s memory by dedicating himself to raising their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, ensuring they embody the love and values she instilled in them. He reflects on her enduring presence, stating, “I still feel her every day… in our 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren’s smiles.” As Hollywood remembers Kelly Preston not just for her beauty and talent, but for her profound love, John Travolta’s heartfelt revelations serve as a testament to their extraordinary bond—a love story that transcends even death.
