It has been a rough year for the Travolta family, and in a recent interview John Travolta broke his silence about his son’s tragic death.

The “Face/Off” star told press, “We’ve been working very hard every day as a family to heal.  We have our own way of doing it, and it has been helping.”

His wife Kelly Preston added that the “outpouring of love from, really, worldwide has been extraordinary. It’s been our friends, our family, our church. We partake in spiritual counseling pretty much daily.”

Jett Travolta passed away at the age of 16 due to a seizure at the Travolta vacation home on Grand Bahama Island.  Adding to the drama, two Bahamian men tried to extort the family of $25 million to withhold private information from the public.
