Falling in love is something that we do for a lifetime. We never go into a relationship thinking that it will someday end, but unfortunately, they and all too often.

Every once in a while, we hero somebody who loved so deeply that they couldn’t move forward once it ended. That is the case with John Travolta, after his wife, Kelly, passed away from breast cancer.

Most people know John Travolta because of his acting career, but he was also a singer, dancer, and a dedicated husband. He spent more than four decades in show business and entertaining people far and wide.

He was born in 1954 in New Jersey and is the youngest child of six children. His mother acted and sang, which may have given him some of the inspiration he needed to get started on Broadway when he was only 18.

His first big break in the movies was a scary and unusual flick, Carrie. He then went on to play in a movie that showed his dancing as well as his acting skills, Saturday Night Fever. He even was nominated for an Academy Award.

Even though he was very popular as an actor, he knows what it’s like to live life and suffer the consequences from time to time. In 2009, he lost his wife, Jett, while she was on vacation. His wife Kelly died of cancer in July 2020.

Since her passing, he has spoken publicly about it on a number of occasions. This includes when she died and he shared his thoughts on Instagram.

“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. … Kelly’s love and life will always be remembered. I will be taking some time to be there for my children who have lost their mother, so forgive me in advance if you don’t hear from us for a while. But please know that I will feel your outpouring of love in the weeks and months ahead as we heal.”

The loss of his wife affected him on a very personal level and he was to continue his life in a way that she would have wanted. He misses her and it’s easy to see how much he loved her.

Since she died, he will post information online on special days, such as her birthday to keep her memory alive.

It seems as if he is not interested in starting a new relationship or getting involved with anyone else. It’s a very painful situation for him that he struggles with down to this day.
