Actor John Travolta has had a tough couple of years adjusting to the loss of his wife, Kelly Preston, but the father of two is taking it day by day and doing his best to support his children.

Preston survived their two children, Ella and Benjamin, and their father has been by their side since their mother passed.

Recently, the proud father celebrated her daughter Ella's 23rd birthday, and the family of three spent the special day at Disney World.

Travolta's video for his daughter's birthday was magical; it started with fireworks and a special song that the actor thought would be perfect for the occasion. "Here's a song for you on your birthday, my dearest Ella!" he wrote.

The song was Henry Mancini & His Orchestra's theme to 1961's Breakfast at Tiffany's, and as it played in the background, the father and daughter were seen posing together and walking hand in hand toward Cinderella's castle. Travolta sweetly finished his caption with: "I love you with all my heart!! Your Dad!!"

Travolta has always shared his travel adventures with his family. A month before their Disney trip for Ella's birthday, the "Pulp Fiction" star had celebrated his birthday in Las Vegas.

Since the actor had just earned his Boeing 737 license, he wanted to use the trip to recreate his favorite childhood airline poster of TWA (Trans World Airline) urging fans to fly to Vegas.

Travolta was joined by his daughter and a few other friends. They indulged in a bit of gambling and dancing, watched a few shows, and were flown home to Los Angeles by the actor.

Ella also opened up about her relationship with her father on the HollywoodLife podcast. She said Travolta was the main person she took advice from, but more importantly, her father supported her dreams and encouraged her to live a life true to her.

Ella also spoke about how it was growing up with famous parents. At first, it wasn't very clear, but she said it eventually made sense that her parents were the same people in movies.

Since entering her 20s, Ella has shed a lot of weight. Her mother, Preston, had also lost weight after having children. The late actress was 48 years old when she fell pregnant and confessed that she worried if she would be able to bounce back. But thanks to a workout and diet plan created by one of her friends, Kirstie Alley, she got her body back.

Through Alley's program, Preston said she was able to lose 39 pounds. What made her happier was that she felt healthier and more energetic than ever before. The weight loss plan consisted of dancing every day for two hours and following an organic diet.

What Does Ella Travolta Currently Do for a Living?

Ella is growing into a woman making strides in her career. She made her father proud when she attended the New York Fashion Week and strutted in the most fashionable looks.

But Ella is not only making waves in the fashion industry; she's also following in her father's footsteps. She made her film debut in "Old Dogs" when she was nine years old, thanks to her father.

Those excited to see how her acting has evolved now that she's older can expect to see Ella in the highly awaited film "Get Lost." She also starred in the 2019 film "Eye for an Eye."

Though she is making a name for herself in Hollywood, life for the 23-year-old hasn't been easy. She lost her older brother Jett when she was nine. Jett died from a seizure after hitting his head on a bathtub.

Another heartbreaking experience followed in 2020 when she lost her mother to breast cancer. Despite the pain, Ella has persevered and continues to make significant career moves.
