John Travolta's kids reportedly want the patriarch to open his heart again years after Kelly Preston's death.
Over the years, Travolta has focused on being a father to his two living children with Preston: Ella and Ben. Their son, Jett, died on January 2, 2009, while on a family vacation to Grand Bahama Island after suffering a seizure at the age of 16.
Now, the children reportedly would like to see their 70-year-old father be on the dating scene again.
"Everyone wants him to be happy and fall in love again," a source told In Touch. "Ella and Benjamin want him to start dating, but John is always making excuses. He says they have to come first."
After Preston's death, the "You're The One That I Want" singer has not dated anyone.
The insider added, "It's been almost four years since she passed and John still refuses to move on with his life. And his religion doesn't seem to be the biggest priority for him anymore, either. Since Kelly's passing, he's just not as connected to his faith as he once was."
According to the insider, the I Think You Might Like It crooner reportedly feels afraid to open up and be vulnerable again.
Although the source said Travolta is not yet ready to fall in love again, a separate insider revealed he has some notes to take if he finds someone again.
"He's not asking for much - just that she be kind, warm, gracious, funny and spontaneous. Being attractive too wouldn't hurt!" the insider continued. "Kelly wouldn't want him to spend the rest of his life alone."
The report came after sources told Star in January that Travolta was ready to date again. Another noted he had been busy since Preston's death.
On the other hand, other witnesses told RadarOnline.com in February 2023 why he swore off women after losing his wife.
"John still considers himself married and says he will stay loyal to Kelly until the day he dies," a source said of the "Summer Nights" singer. "It's hands off when it comes to dating. It's sad, but he's essentially taken a vow of celibacy for the rest of his life."
