The Travolta's want a third child-and they'll use IVF to get it

Actors John Travolta and wife Kelly Preston, 42, have revealed to MSNBC that they would like one more child to complete their family, which includes son Jett, 13, and daughter Ella, 5. Kelly says, "We definitely want to have at least one more child. But with my age, unless I have twins, we will probably only have one more baby." John adds, "We’d like one more. We’d use IVF. It’s not a big deal any more. Children are such a joy."

Wonder how soon they are thinking of doing this? There is an 8 year space between Jett and Ella…

Looking at Jett and Ella, and how much they love those two to death, I can’t blame them. I wish them all the luck in the world with this third baby. ♥♥

I may not be an expert about Scientology but I know Kelly Preston through her support behind Tom Cruise after he crucified Brooke Shields this summer. If they use IVF, would that dip into her beliefs as a Scientologist?

I certainly wouldn’t hold anything against them for putting their desire to expand their family above Scientology.

I wonder how Kelly looks so young at 44?

IVF at 44? good luck to her! One’s fertility tends to take a nosedive after 40, although she may have different results. Many docs won’t take new IVF patients at her age.

I have done a little research on Scientology, not alot, but a bit and I haven’t ever seen anything that would make me think that Scientology frowns upon fertility treatments. Fertility drugs and psychiatric drugs are completely different and Scientology is very into “family and values”. I don’t know all their rules but I wouldn’t think it would be a problem. I wish them the best in expanding their family. They have beautiful kids!

as a mother of an autistic young man, I feel so sorry for Kelly Preston. To be hiding her son’s disability because her husband is a major movie star is sadder than having a son that has autism or any other disability. I rather deal with a disability then a smug husband like Kelly’s.

Kelly and John are raising their son in the dark.

Is that why your family sleeps all day and stays up all night, Kelly? Is this your way so you do not have to face the world with your son?

I do not envy your life Kelly Preston…
