A bombshell legal filing has unearthed a web of shocking allegations connecting Hollywood star John Travolta and the legendary Presley family, centred around egg donations and secret agreements. The claims, which remain unconfirmed officially, paint a picture of personal tragedy, alleged deals, and family drama spanning over a decade.
The Alleged Egg Donation Deals
According to the lawsuit documents, the Travoltas—John and his late wife Kelly Preston—first approached Lisa Marie Presley for help with having a child. While it is not officially confirmed if this ever resulted in a child, the filing alleges the couple asked for her assistance again in 2010. This request came after the tragic death of their 16-year-old son, Jett, who suffered a fatal seizure.
However, the situation took a controversial turn. The legal papers claim the Travoltas later changed their minds about using Lisa Marie's eggs. The reason cited was a disturbing one: they allegedly did not want "eggs with heroin" on them, a reference to Lisa Marie's past struggles.
The lawsuit, filed by Brigitte Kruse, alleges a new deal was then struck with Riley Keough, Lisa Marie's eldest daughter. It claims Riley provided an egg so that Kelly Preston could give birth to Ben Travolta, who is now 15 years old. In exchange, Riley was allegedly given an old Jaguar and a payment between $10,000 and $20,000.
Priscilla's Alleged Oversight and a Hidden Grandchild
The legal drama deepens with the alleged involvement of matriarch Priscilla Presley. Brigitte Kruse states that Michael, presumably a key figure in the arrangement, informed her the entire process had "heavily involved Priscilla’s oversight." Furthermore, the filing claims Michael intended to use this secret about the Travoltas to negotiate a settlement for himself and his daughters.
Another explosive claim suggests John Travolta needed help to "salvage his career amid claims of sexual assault against other men." Adding another layer, a separate lawsuit by Brigitte and Kevin Fialko against Priscilla Presley claims she has a secret grandchild who "resides in Florida"—coincidentally, the state where the Travoltas are based in Ocala.
Family Tantrum and Legal Crossfire
The scandal has reportedly caused rifts within the Presley family itself. Priscilla's son, Navarone Garibaldi Garcia, who is being sued for breach of contract, allegedly demanded that Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko keep "Riley’s and Travoltas son out of the press." The legal filings state Garcia "threw a tantrum" because Priscilla had promised him he would be the only male musician in the family and would be the 'king.'
This latest lawsuit is part of an ongoing legal battle. Last year, Priscilla Presley sued Brigitte Kruse and her associates for fraud and elder abuse, claims which Brigitte has denied. The current allegations bring these complex personal and financial disputes back into the harsh spotlight, revealing a tangled tale of celebrity, family, and alleged secrets.
