Kelly Preston has been honored by Hollywood pals including Mariah Carey, Russell Crowe and Sarah Paulson as tributes pour in following her tragic death. The 57-year-old actress' husband, John Travolta, revealed she had passed away after a secret two-year battle with breast cancer.
He shared a photo of Kelly last night and told his fans: "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." The actor paid tribute to his wife's "courageous fight" as he revealed that she had battled the disease for two years, but chose to keep her illness private.
In the wake of Kelly Preston's tragic death, her Hollywood pals have been paying their respects to the beautiful mom-of-three. Actress Sarah Paulson, replied: "I love you so."
"Sending so much love to you and your family in this heartbreaking moment," added singer Mariah Carey.
Selma Blair also penned: "I am holding you all in love. Your wife, your partner in life, was a darling soul. Always at the ready with comfort and grace. What a team you were. She will be so missed."
"My heart breaks for you and your family. In utter shock reading this. I'm so sorry. Sending you all love," wrote E! host Maria Menounos.
Gladiator star Russell Crowe tweeted: "Can't remember where, but, met first in late '92 I think. Such a lovely person. In 1995 we auditioned together for Breaking Up. Salma Hayek got that gig. I haven't seen her much, but when I did, she was always the same sparkly eyed gem. Love to her family. R.I.P."
Kelly's death came 11 years after the couple's eldest son, 16-year-old Jett died in 2009 after a seizure at the family's Bahamas holiday home. She leaves behind her famous actor husband John and their daughter Ella, 20, and nine-year-old son Benjamin.
