In addition to Benjamin and Ella, the actor and his late wife shared another son, Jett, who passed away at 16 years old in 2009. Last April, he shared a touching tribute to Jett on Instagram on Sunday, April 13 — what would have been his 33rd birthday.
Travolta's post featured a throwback photo of himself holding a young Jett in his arms while the little boy played with his ears. "Happy birthday Jett - I miss you so much," the proud dad wrote. "Love you forever!"
Travolta and his son Benjamin recently shared some special father-son time as they hiked on a snowy mountain in Norway. On Wednesday, Nov. 12 he posted shared a video on Instagram, where the teen looked all grown up.
In the clip, which was set to Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell’s song "Ain't No Mountain High Enough,” Ben sported a large white coat and walked up the cliff before standing and looking at the scenic mountain view.
“Ain’t no mountain high enough for my son Ben. Love from Norway,” Travolta wrote in his caption.
