The new cover of Star reports that John Travolta and 47-year-old Kelly Preston are expecting a child. "Kelly is about three months pregnant," a source told the magazine for their cover story. "Both she and John are absolutely over the moon."Now, the family confirms the news on Travolta's official Web site. "It's impossible to keep a secret ... especially one as wonderful as this. We want to be the first to share this great news with everyone that we are expecting a new addition to our family. Love, John, Kelly and Ella"
If Preston is indeed three months pregnant as the source says, she would likely be due in November.
Travolta and Preston wed in 1991 and had two children, daughter Ella Bleu, born in 2000, and their late son Jett, who died in 2009 at age 16. Jett, who had a history of seizures, died on January 2 last year while at the Travoltas' residence in the Bahamas. Both John Travolta and Kelly Preston have kept low profiles since his death.
Preston had spoken to PEOPLE back in 2007 about her desire for a third child. "I thought I would get pregnant when Ella was about 4," she said in August of 2007. "Then I wanted to work a little bit more, and all of a sudden she's 7. I'm not pregnant now, but I don't have another movie project [lined up]; that's all I'll say."

So the kid will be born to a 47 year old mother and 57 year old father. I just find this selfish behavior. Couldn't they have adopted a 5-6 year old and provide it a better life?

Why don't you adopt a 5-6 year old? Why does this bother you? Congrats! I hope everything goes well.
Short and Simple Cici:MIND YOUR OWN BUSSINESS!!!!!!!! GOD IS AWSOME, AND THEY ARE AWSOME TOO.GET THE PICTURE???
Cici I get what you're saying and I agree with you. It is selfish to have a child so late in life. It's a proven fact the older a woman is when giving birth, the higher the risks for her safety and the baby. I'm a fan of this couple and I do believe God is great also, However why not adopt a child who needs a home? Heck, with their money why not adopt a few?

"IT"? YOU are a moron, Cici.
What? The 5-6 year would NOT have a 47 yr old mother and 57 yr old father? Adoption makes the parents younger? That's news to me.
If mother nature (that is without intervention) blesses them with another child (hopefully healthy), who are you to call them selfish.
Anyway, good for the Travoltas!
CiCi, who are you to say whether someone should have a baby or not?...god or something???lmao. it is never selfish to bring a life into this world. they have those kids taken care of in the event the worst case scenario were to occur.
Cici, get a life. And try to adopt some kids of your own, too. I hope this news is true - the Travoltas need blessings again.
that none of your business you will not be supporting this child so butt off
CiCi, so are you suggesting that it would be better to have kids @ 15,16,17...then that wouldn't be selfish? What is selfish about having kids in your "prime",?
You are such an idiot, just why does the news of kelly Travolta being pregnant bother you so much? I cannot understand just where you fit in their decision to have another baby. To anyone else that is objecting to this news, listen up: As long as you don't have to raise the baby, feed and clothe the baby and didn't father the child, mind you own damned business!
When I was born my grandfather's best friend asked to be my godfather. My Mom thought he was to old and told him they would ask his son. My godfather died at the age of 42 of a heart attack, I was in the 1st grade. His father died when I was in my 40's. You never know when it's your turn. So Congratulations to the Travolta family, a new life is a miracle of love, enjoy.
I think it's wonderful. They suffered a major tragedy that most parents never want to face. They are obviously very much in love and, once again, God has blessed them. Be happy for them!
How is this selfish behavior? They wanted another child and were blessed..Keep your judgments to yourself!
Not that what they're doing is actually selfish, as you say, Cici--but who in the hell are you to judge them? Wait, you must be PERFECT, right?
Things happen.What would you have them do? Abort? This may not have been planned but they are happy about it.Enough said.
They are probably in a better place both phyisically, emotionally, and financially than most people their age. Besides its better than a 13 yr old getting knocked up and having the state pay for it.
So a child made out of pure love at an older age is selfish? You are just as stupid as the next poster down who talks about this baby being the replacement for Jett. Re-read the story. They had been talking about having another for 3 years. Before Jett was born. Sounds to me like none of your business. Like others said, you won't be the one feeding, clothing, bathing, and otherwise caring for this baby, so why are you so bitter about it?
Congrats to the Travoltas! This is amazing news and they need good news after all they have been through. Best of luck to them and a healthy baby to them!
O.k. The Duggar's have 19 kids, she's 42, and not stopping 'till probably menopausal! She loves kids ( Duggar Michelle )as does the husband Jim Bob. I kinda agree about the old parents for the baby. I wouldn't want to be raised by old parents. But then again, they can hire nannies, cooks, people to play with the kid, they have money to raise it, etc.. The one thing though is that this new baby will not bring back Jett. But, it will make them happy to have a new little life in the house after losing one. Aw.
They have gone through want every parent dreads, and God Bless them for getting through this and staying together.. God taketh away and God giveth back! God has created this child... May God bring healing into their hearts over this new life growing... I feel that its selfish on your part to say they are selfish
