She stated that her mother's personality made everyone around her happy and she was certain those who had the honor of meeting the actress would agree that she made life beautiful.

Preston was the mother of three children before her death at age 57 but her firstborn and son Jett Travolta tragically died at 16-years-old in January 2009. The cause of death was reportedly a seizure while the family was on vacation.

Jett was the spitting image of his father just as Ella has been described to be. The 20-year-old is also pursuing a career in the entertainment industry and has starred alongside her father in the 2019 film "The Poison Rose" as well as the "Old Dogs."
