HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — John Travolta and Kelly Preston have welcomed their baby boy!
The actress gave birth to son Benjamin in a Florida hospital on Tuesday. He weighed in at 8 pounds, 3 ounces.
"John, Kelly and their daughter Ella Bleu are ecstatic and very happy about the newest member of the family," the couple said in a statement. "Both mother and baby are healthy and doing beautifully."
Travolta, 56, and Preston, 48, announced the pregnancy in May, more than a year after the tragic death of their 16-year-old son Jett, who died after suffering a seizure at the family's vacation home in the Bahamas.
In September, Preston said she was counting down the days until their new baby arrived, joining older sister Ella Bleu, 10.
"John and I are completely ready. My daughter is very excited too," she told People. "I can't wait for the day to come."
