John Travolta shared a loving tribute for his late son, Jett Travolta, on Tuesday.

To mark what would have been Jett's 29th birthday, the actor, 67, shared a heartwarming snap smiling with him, captioning his post, "Happy birthday my beautiful Jetty. I love you."

Jett Travolta, who had autism, died in January 2009 at the age of 16 after suffering a seizure at their family's vacation home in the Bahamas. At the time, Travolta's attorney said Jett had "had seizures in the past."

John Travolta is also the parent of 21-year-old Ella and 10-year-old Benjamin with his wife, late actress Kelly Preston.

Ella shared a tribute to honor her late brother Jett, writing, "I love you Jetty. Happy Birthday❤️"

Preston, who died of breast cancer at age 57 in July 2020, shared a tribute for Jett last year, on what would have been his 28th birthday.
