In his Instagram story, Travolta also shared a video of himself blowing out seven candles on a frosted birthday cake, enjoying a cake slice and receiving a “birthday kiss” from Peanut, whom Ben adopted in 2022 after the dog appeared at the Oscars ceremony that year.

In addition to 13-year-old Ben, Travolta is also a dad to daughter Ella, now 23, and late son Jett, all of whom he shares with late wife Kelly Preston, who died in July 2020 after she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
