John Travolta’s Instagram post featuring a photo of his son sparked fresh reactions from fans after reports emerged that American actress Riley Keough donated her eggs to Pulp Fiction star and Kelly Preston, who later used them to welcome their son Benjamin.
Travolta wrote in a comment on his son’s photos: “My son! This is the beginning of the new season! Proud of you, Ben!”
Thousands of people liked the photo and hundreds of others praised the young man for his talent in skating.
After seeing reports based on court documents that revealed Riley Keough had donated her eggs, some fans have questioned the veracity of these claims.
“I read the news that Ben is Riley Keough’s son. Did you see the news story?” one fan wrote in the comments section on December 18.
Another said: “He looks like his dad, loves flying. Just a different way of doing it.” However, the actor did not respond to the reports.
Several other users asked the same questions in the comments section of Travolta’s post that was shared five days ago.
Citing a complaint filed by Priscilla Presley’s former business partners, Brigitte Cross and Kevin Fialko, PEOPLE reported that she donated her eggs to John Travolta so that he and his late wife could have their son Benjamin, who is now 15.
According to the publication, the complaint states that immediately after Lisa Marie’s death in January 2023, “Presley’s entire family demanded control of the estate and payment of damages, using Plaintiffs Cross and Fialko as negotiators and mediators.”
