Kelly Preston, wife of John Travolta, mother, and actress, opened up to Health Magazine about death, Scientology, and Johnny T!
On how she got through the death of her son, Jett:
“To be honest, [it was] the Scientology center. I don’t know if I would have made it through without it.”On her very liberal upbringing:
“There was this fallacy in Hawaii, where I grew up, that pot’s not addictive, and that it’s natural, and all this other B.S.”On drinking and drugs:
“I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I don’t do drugs. I’ve done all of that. And now, I live a really clean life.”On yearning to be a mom:
├óΓé¼┼ôI├óΓé¼Γäóve always wanted to be a mother, ever since I was 11…I was doing commercials for thousands of dollars, but I├óΓé¼Γäód still babysit for $3 an hour just because I loved it.├óΓé¼┬¥On advice to her former self:
“Don’t sweat the small things. Love your kids like it could be the last moment.”
On the birth of her son, Benjamin:
“We [had been trying] for quite a few years…When I found out I was pregnant, I was floored. I’d snuck out of bed and then came back and woke Johnny up in bed. We both started crying. It was wonderful.”
On her surreal life with John Travolta:
“I’ll be sitting there [in our Florida home] doing something really normal with the kids and then all of a sudden I hear, ‘Whoosh!’ and see the lights of the airplane and he’s like, ‘Honey, I’m home!’”
We’re glad you were able to cope with Jett’s death, as horrible as it was. We’re also glad you were able to get pregnant again!
It’s wonderful to hear how happy you are in your relationship and that you lead a clean and fulfilling life!
Hope everything continues on the same path!
