John Travolta: 'I Want a Son'

john.jpg
Superstar couple John Travolta and his beautiful wife Kelly Preston stepped out for the premiere of his latest flick, “Wild Hogs,” Tuesday night in Hollywood.

As they strolled down the red carpet, the Hollywood duo opened up about their desire for another child.

“This summer, we're going to do our best to create another one,” Travolta dished.

While Preston admitted that they want to expand their family, she said she’d gladly take either a “healthy” boy or girl.

But her hubby had a different story.

"I would like another son, because we've got our princess, one beautiful princess, and I think it would be have fun to have another boy,” he said.

My prayers go out to the Travolta Family. It saddens me to read such negative comments from people who are not friends or family of this man. Let the family deal with their loss in private. Deal with your issues and allow him to deal with his in his own way.

I have been in love with JT since I was a young girl, so much so I named my daughter after his and my son shares his middle name. Both John and Kelly are wonderful people and good parents. Religion works in many ways, it gives people hope and also stops people from receiving certain needs. I think the Jewish faith (not sure) does not allow blood transfusions. Which means if your child went in for an operation and needed blood he/she could not receive it. The Amish also have such restrictions. This does not mean that all of the parents in these religions are bad people. Who cares if their son was autistic or if they were in denial? Maybe they were or maybe they weren’t and he was getting help out of the public light? It is none of anyone’s business. He was a child and suffered a terrible tragedy. John wanting another boy I doubt is to replace their son Jett! If you people do your research and find out what Kawasaki disease is you would see it affects several areas in your body also Jett suffered from seizures which I am sure takes a toll on the body. His son was a beautiful boy as is his daughter. For people to bad mouth him and not know what is really going on behind the scenes is horrible. My condolences to Kelly (who is a lucky woman to have John as a husband), John, Ella and their extended family.

i think that they are both the best people ever since i have met them and babysit there daughter i reall should know and i hope they dont have kids because john is getting really old and he has a great fam just the way it is. a new baby is kinda bad and if they do have a kid i hope for a boy. because ella is like royalty in their house and they make stuff that really help people happen they are like the best couple in the world and kelly may kiss on ever movie but shes totally and competly the best wife mom and just aunt u could ever think of having in your life !!!!!!!

I have been a big fan of JT, but I have a autistic girl and she is beautiful and since her therapy i see changes in her every day. If Jett has autism he needs to be out with his peers to live a productive life, as a responsible father or parents you cannot hide your children from the world.

it is such a shame and it even border lines on abuse.

thank you

As the parent of an autistic child, I can recognize the symptoms quite clearly in travolta’s son, without even meeting him. He and his wife are a disgrace to humanity by not giving the child a fighting chance. I saw the child in one picture he’s walking with his mother on tippy-toe, a dead giveaway that he is autistic. His brother Joey is a staunch advocate for autism, why doesn’t he help his nephew? It could all be due to that bogus cult they belong to, Zeno my a$$!! I used to admire his movies and thought he was a wonderful actor, but every time I see him now, all I can think of is his poor son. I will never dish another dime out to support his movies, and i’m quite certain others who share my sentiments won’t either.

I think it’s pretty sad John’s saying another boy would be “fun” when it’s pretty obvious what he really means is a boy that is not handicapped. It was weird, just a couple weeks ago I saw the first picture I’d seen of Jett in like 10 years—in the Nat’l Enquirer—I was shocked—I said “What a whale! I can’t believe those two would allow their son’s weight to balloon so much!” I jumped on the net on a hunch & started googling away and what do you know…the kid’s autistic. the comments I read by a former personal assistant to JT rang true, that the kid just sits there all day playing computer games & eating junk food. That absolutely would account for his weight and level of functioning..I do believe his condition is being NOT-IS’ED by the 2 devout scientologists. (That’s scientology speak for denial to you and me) And it is also in keeping with scientology to have brainwashed mum & dad into not using any of the conventional meds used to treat autism, as scientology is notoriously (and ignorantly) anti-drug. (hypocritically speaking, tobacco, tylenol, alcohol and caffeine are fine).Too bad someone from DYFS or DPSS couldn’t step in to evaluate the kid and his parent’s method of dealing (er- NOT dealing)with his condition..now that I look at the kid’s picture in a new light, I just feel sad instead of shocked.

John is a jerk plain and simple! Kelly is an idiot as well! All this John is a nice guy is bullshit! If he was so nice why isn’t he helping Jett out? John needs a kick in the butt and Kelly needs a slap in the face. Thanks for exposing the turth on John Tim.

Extremely sad that he does not recognize the fact he has a wonderful son. At least publicly. It is very sad when a religion gets in the way of helping your own child.

Travolta wants a son because he can’t admit publicly how serious his existing son’s condition is. He HAS a son- he just doesn’t seem to care to help the kid. There are new pictures out today on another site- and there is something very obviously wrong, and possibly genetically wrong with Jett. He looks like he has problems other than autism- the Travolta’s should have chromosomal studies done on Jett. Maybe they should NOT be having more children. But to say he has one perfect child- which is what the Princess crack means- is offensive and disgusting.

I wish tem luck to have a healthy child. From the sounds of it, that is really all the Scientologists accept. I have heard that John and Kelly’s son is Autistic, and if he is I hope he isn’t getting cheated on his treatment because they don’t believe in psych. meds. I have a son on the spectrum and other things as well, I don’t want him on meds either, but sometimes it is the only way.
