Jett Travolta Tragedy Update
The entertainment world was shaken last week when John Travolta’s son Jett was found dead in their vacation home in the Bahamas. And according to reports, an autopsy is set to take place today in order to determine the exact cause of death.
Two clinical and forensic pathologists will be performing the autopsy in the Bahamas, while the Travoltas make arrangements for their son’s body to be transported to Ocala, Florida for the funeral.
The “Pulp Ficton” star’s lawyer and confidant Michael McDermott and the family’s attorney Michael Ossi told press, “John is distraught. He is trying to understand and reconcile this.”
Grieving parents John and Kelly said in a statement on their website, “Jett was the most wonderful son that two parents could ever ask for and lit up the lives of everyone he encountered.”
At this point, it’s widely believed that Jett suffered a grand mal seizure which led to him hitting his head on the bathtub and his subsequent death. The seizure medication he was once taking, Depakote, had eventually lost its effectiveness after several years.
