Preston died in July after a private two-year battle with breast cancer.

"She fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many," Travolta wrote at the time, adding that he would be taking time off to heal and be with his children.

Travolta and Preston had three children together: Ella, 20, Benjamin, 9, and Jett, who died in 2009 at age 16.

It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you that my beautiful wife Kelly has lost her two-year battle with breast cancer. She fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many. My family and I will forever be grateful to her doctors and nurses at MD Anderson Cancer Center, all the medical centers that have helped, as well as her many friends and loved ones who have been by her side. Kelly's love and life will always be remembered. I will be taking some time to be there for my children who have lost their mother, so forgive me in advance if you don't hear from us for a while. But please know that I will feel your outpouring of love in the weeks and months ahead as we heal. All my love, JT
