London, Jan 21 (ANI): John Travolta’s wife Kelly Preston has admitted that she had a ’silent birth’ when she welcomed son Benjamin into the world last November.

The 48-year-old star, who said the style of birth is common practice in her religion of Scientology, was forbidden to talk during labour, reports the Daily Mail.

Preston’s admission comes as she was seen out for the first time since having baby Benjamin when she stepped out last night with Travolta for dinner in Los Angeles restaurant Mr Chow.

“It’s just no words as much as possible. If you need to moan, if you cry out or all of that, of course, is normal. But just bringing them in as peaceful and gentle a way as possible,” Preston said in an interview on the Today show yesterday.

Referring to Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, Preston added: “L. Ron Hubbard found that the single source of aberration, of psychosomatic illnesses, stress, fears, worry, things like that, have to do with the reactive mind, and in that part of the mind is different words and commands that can come back to affect you later in your life.

“I’m blessed with, my kids have always been amazing, very calm, very peaceful, happy, and I absolutely know that it’s very much because of that,” she said.

Preston also revealed she and Travolta regard the pregnancy and subsequent healthy birth of their son, which comes after the death of their late son Jett in 2009, as a ‘miracle’.

“I just think any time you get pregnant at this age, it is a miracle. We were sort of blessed with being lucky to still conceive,” the actress added. (ANI)
