Legal Battle Unveils Alleged Biological Connection Between John Travolta's Son and Elvis Presley
John Travolta's youngest son, Benjamin, may have a biological connection to Elvis Presley, according to a lawsuit filed by Priscilla Presley's former business partner and an associate. The lawsuit alleges that Riley Keough, Lisa Marie Presley's daughter, donated her eggs to Travolta and his late wife Kelly Preston 15 years ago to help them conceive. The lawsuit claims that Keough's eggs were used for Preston to give birth to their son, Ben Travolta, making him potentially related to Elvis Presley.
The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, alleges that the Presley family was involved in a dispute over control of the estate and payouts after Lisa Marie's passing in 2023. It is claimed that the actors approached the family to use Lisa Marie's eggs initially but later opted for Keough's eggs due to concerns about drug use. The lawsuit includes a handwritten note detailing the alleged deal, with references to medical bills, Ben Travolta, and an old Jaguar given to Keough.
Kelly Preston passed away in 2021 after battling breast cancer, leaving behind Travolta and their two other children, Jett and Ella Bleu. The lawsuit also mentions the involvement of the Church of Scientology in the arrangement and claims made by Lisa Marie's ex-husband, Michael Lockwood, regarding financial difficulties.
The lawsuit further alleges that Priscilla Presley's love for her son, Navarone Garcia, was incestuous and that Garcia demanded to keep Riley's and Travolta's son out of the press. This legal battle is not the first involving the Presley family and the plaintiffs, as Priscilla previously sued them for fraud and elder abuse in 2024.
In response to the claims, Priscilla's lawyers have condemned the allegations as an attempt to cause further pain to her and her family. They have also criticized the plaintiffs for suing Presley's son, cousin, and assistant in an effort to pressure her to retract her claims. The plaintiffs' attorney maintains that the allegations are based on facts and truth, and they have been forced to proceed with litigation due to the circumstances surrounding the Presley family's disputes.
As of now, John Travolta and Riley Keough have not publicly commented on the claims made in the lawsuit. The legal battle continues, with both parties standing by their respective positions and seeking resolution through the court system.
