John Travolta’s Daughter Slammed for Wearing Sheer Corset — Dad Is Proud of Her as She Pursues 3 Careers

The “Grease” star described the moment he met Preston as “love at first sight,” but, Preston, who dated George Clooney shortly until 1989 and got engaged to Charlie Sheen after, didn’t quite agree.

It was only after Preston broke things off with Sheen in 1990 that Travolta shot his shot, and they fell madly in love. Travolta proposed on New Year’s Eve in 1991 at the Palace Hotel restaurant in Switzerland, surprising Preston altogether.

Producer Jonathan Krane from “Look Who’s Talking Too” said everyone was shocked by the actor’s decision. Apparently, Preston screamed at the time. However, she later told People they had plans for babies and were already “practicing.” The actress added:

“This could be barefoot and pregnant for the next 10 years.”

Despite the sudden engagement, everyone was hopeful for the couple, especially Travolta, who had lost a wonderful woman, actress Diana Hyland, who died in 1977.

Meanwhile, even Preston had to admit she never chose the right kind of man. Her mother, Linda Carlson, said Preston often picked “the bad-boy kind,” so she was delighted for her daughter because Travolta was kind and generous. Carlson commented:

“I just thank God. That’s what she wants and that’s what she needs.”

Wendy Travolta, married to John’s brother Joey, said the actor was so happy and they were both ready to settle down. The couple refused to talk much about their wedding, but Carlson often told the press that she was ready to be a grandmother. She added:

“I can’t wait to have a grandchild. Kelly is part English, German and Hawaiian, and him with his Italian good looks, the baby is going to be a gorgeous blend.”

Her hopes became a reality when Travolta and Preston had their first child, Jett, in 1992. They welcomed Ella Bleu in 2000 and their youngest son, Benjamin, in 2010.

Benjamin was like a gift for the couple, calling him “a new beginning” and “nothing short of a miracle” after the family tragically lost their son Jett in 2009.

The “Saturday Night Fever” actor told People Benjamin’s birth had renewed the spirit in their home and brought joy back. Everyone was rooting for them after what they dealt with and were glad to see them happy once again.

Their daughter was waiting in the other room while Preston gave birth to Benjamin. She was accompanied by Kirstie Alley, who remained a close friend to the Travoltas through everything.

The Travoltas lost their firstborn after he suffered a seizure and was injured. They were vacationing in the Bahamas at the time. Just was just 18, so it was a massive blow for everyone. The actor told People:

“All our memories are connected to Jett over the last 18 years — our photos, our homes, our travel. It’s not something that will ever leave us.”

Unfortunately, the actor went through another tragedy when Preston died on July 10, 2020, after a long battle with breast cancer. Travolta took to Instagram with the news but praised his dear wife for her bravery. The post said:

“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 asked the public and his fans to respect his family’s privacy in their time of grief. He also asked for forgiveness because they might be away from the limelight for a while, but they also thanked the public for their love and condolences.

Despite these two tragedies, Travolta remains a devoted father to his children, knowing how short life can be. Now that his daughter has entered the Hollywood spotlight, he supports her completely and has showered her with praises. Fans online also had a lot to say about Ella, but some comments were unexpected.

Ella Bleu Slammed Online

The 23-year-old made her debut as a model at New York Fashion Week in September 2020. She walked the runway for Karl Lagerfeld’s “Cara Loves Karl” collection, and her father couldn’t have been prouder. The actor sang her praises online, writing:

“So proud of Ella’s debut at fashion week in New York City!”

When the young model posted a picture from the event on her Instagram, once again, the actor told her he was extremely happy for her.

In the photo, Ella was rocking the outfit she wore on the catwalk, which consisted of a tailored black suit with a sexy yet elegant lacy corset top. She completed it with black pants, and her hair was slicked back, showing her beautiful face.

Ella reminded some people of her late mother, revealing their uncanny resemblance, but she also emanated a vibe of Travolta.

Sadly, not everyone was as pleased as the proud dad. Some users were quick to slam the young woman, asking her to be more modest. One person implied she was a “hooker,” and another asked for her Only Fans account.

Luckily, many people replied to those haters, calling them out for the hateful comments and insisting that Ella was just a wonderful, beautiful young woman who didn’t deserve to be talked about that way.

Many people saw her resemblance to Preston and told her that her late mother would be just as proud as her father. One person wrote: “Wow! I see your mom in this photo. Beautiful.”

Ella Has Three Careers

Ella might have just started to make her name in the modeling world, but she is no stranger to working in entertainment. 2022 was a busy year for her, as she debuted her single “Dizzy” in January, which you can listen to on Spotify, and started preparing to release her EP. The rising star said in a video:

“It’s been a long time coming but I’m still that 14-year-old weird girl at heart and I love it. Hope you like it, link in my bio and story.”

That’s not all! She’s not just a singer and model. The young Travolta will also appear in the movie, “Get Lost,” which is a modern take on Alice in Wonderland, where she plays the leading role. Of course, her father couldn’t wait to announce the news on his social media, posting a picture with the caption:

“Here’s my daughter Ella starring in a live-action re-imagining of Alice in Wonderland! Called ‘Get Lost.’ I’m a very proud dad!”

With parents like Travolta and Preston, no one is surprised that Ella is already doing so well in Hollywood at her young age. She might receive a few negative comments in the future, but it’s part of being in the spotlight.

The Proud Father Will Always Support His Daughter

In 2019, Travolta appeared on “The Talk,” where he revealed so much about his daughter and the immense pride he felt for her. Speaking about the time he worked with his daughter on the 2019 film, “The Poison Rose,” the actor described himself as a “stage dad,” saying:

“I am ridiculous. I’m behind the camera mouthing every word she says, doing her moves. My wife, Kelly [Preston], gets hysterical watching me watch her, because I just want it to go great.”

Travolta further explained how Ella was given a difficult challenge on her first day of filming, knowing the last movie she acted in was with Robin Williams in 2009’s “Old Dogs.”
