EXCLUSIVE: FILE PHOTO: John Travolta's 16-year-old son Jett dies of a seizure in the Bahamas

I’ve got a few updates on the tragic death of Jett Travolta, the oldest child of John Travolta and Kelly Preston.

First, there was an autopsy, and the cause of death was found to be seizure disorder. Parents John and Kelly have returned to Florida with Jett’s ashes; no word on a funeral yet.

Secondly, here’s the official statement from the Travolta family:

We would like to extend our deepest and most heartfelt thanks to everyone who has sent their love and condolences.

Jett was the most wonderful son that two parents could ever ask for and lit up the lives of everyone he encountered. We are heartbroken that our time with him was so brief. We will cherish the time we had with him for the rest of our lives. We have received many messages of condolence from around the world and we want to thank everyone for their prayers and support. It has meant so much to us. It is a beautiful reminder of the inherent goodness in the human spirit that gives us ahope for a brighter future.

With love,
John, Kelly and Ella
