Actress Kelly Preston has died at the age of 57. She passed away after battling breast cancer for two years.

As well as being an actress in her own right (having starred in Twins, Jerry Maguire, and Gotti), Preston was also John Travolta’s wife.

Preston apparently sought to keep her illness private, which is why her death from the disease came as such a shock.

Preston leaves behind her husband John Travolta, and their children, Ella (20) and Benjamin (9).

They also had another child, Jett, who sadly died while on vacation in 2009. He suffered a seizure at the tender age of just 16.
