Ella is open to working with her dad on other projects in the future, sharing, “I always jump at the opportunity to do something with my dad, and we always have the most fun doing something together.

Keeping Memories Alive
John shares Ella and Ben with his late wife, Kelly Preston, who tragically passed away at age 57 in July 2020 from breast cancer. The family continues to honor her memory in everything they do. In a touching Instagram tribute in May, Ella wrote, “Happy Mother’s Day to the most wonderful, funny, kind, caring, beautiful and brilliant mom a girl could ask for and to the most iconic duo I could ever dream of being raised by. So very thankful and filled with love on this day.” It’s a testament to the family’s enduring love and respect for Kelly.
