Although the causes of Jett's death are not completely clear, the boy, with autism spectrum disorderswould have died in the room of the Old Bahama Bay Hotel, following a epileptic seizure which would make him hit his head against the bathtub.
Only a few years after his death the Travoltas (who also had Ella, now 23 years old in 2000), broke the maximum secrecy they had always maintained about their son's health, and spoke publicly about autism. The first to do so was Kelly Preston in 2012 who, as reported by CBS, to transmission The Doctor revealed: «Jett was autistic, suffered from epileptic seizures and had to deal with Kawasaki Disease when he was little».
Every year, on April 13, on what would have been his birthday, John Travolta remembers his son Jett with a highly emotional post.
