London, Dec 24 (ANI): Actor John Travolta has thanked all his fans for their support since the death of his 16-year-old son Jett in January.

In an interview to US talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, the ‘Grease’ star opened up and took the opportunity to thank his fans around the world.

“I just want to take one moment to thank each and every one of you throughout [America] and throughout the world for all your support and all your love towards our family,” the Mirror quoted Travolta as saying.

Ellen told the actor there was “a lot of love” felt towards the Travoltas, to which he answered, “I feel that.”

Travolta also introduced his nine-year-old daughter with wife Kelly Preston, who is making her acting debut starring alongside her famous dad in new film Old Dogs.

“She’s so phenomenally professional. You’ll see for yourself she’s just a natural,” he said.

“The most important thing you can do with a child is have confidence in them, but she was really on her own to prove to everyone that she could do this,” he added. (ANI)
