John Travolta is mourning the loss of his "Grease" co-star Olivia Newton-John, who died Monday at the age of 73.

"We will see you down the road and we will all be together again," Travolta, 68, continued. "Yours from the first moment I saw you and forever! Your Danny, your John!"
Newton-John's death was announced via a statement from her husband, John Easterling, and shared to her verified social media pages. In it, Easterling noted that Newton-John "passed away peacefully" at her ranch in southern California surrounded by family and friends.
"Olivia has been a symbol of triumphs and hope for over 30 years sharing her journey with breast cancer," Easterling said in the statement, pointing to the work she did through her Olivia Newton-John Foundation, after first being diagnosed in the early '90s.
The actress and singer battled a recurrence of breast cancer in 2013, and again in 2017, which metastasized to the sacrum and progressed to stage 4.
In addition to her husband, Newton-John is survived by her daughter, Chloe Lattanzi. Lattanzi, 36, reacted to her mother's death on Instagram by sharing a slideshow of photos of the two together throughout the years.
