Celebrities from all over the world have paid tribute to John Travolta’s wife Kelly Preston following her death.
The actor confirmed the news of his 57-year-old wife’s passing this morning on social media, after a two-year battle with breast cancer.
Friends of the late actress spoke of her “kindness” and “beautiful light” and shared their condolences with John Travolta and their children.
Hollywood actor Russell Crowe took to Twitter and posted a touching message about Kelly.
Kelly Preston.
Can’t remember where, but, met first in late ‘92 I think.
Such a lovely person. In 1995 we auditioned together for Breaking Up, Salma Hayek got that gig.
I havent seen her much, but when I did, she was always the same sparkly eyed gem.
Love to her family.
