John Travolta and Kelly Preston became parents again this week, after Preston gave birth to a boy, said People.com. The birth comes nearly two years after the couple’s 16-year-old son, Jett—who was said to suffer from the autoimmune disease Kawasaki syndrome—died in the Bahamas after hitting his head during a seizure. The newborn, named Benjamin, “is healthy and doing beautifully,” said the couple in a statement.
