Were Kirstie Alley And John Travolta Friends In Real Life?

Kirstie Alley and John Travolta’s radiant chemistry in the “Look Who’s Talking” trilogy wasn’t limited to the ’90s rom-com franchise. Thirty years after the film was released, Alley would appear at the premiere of Travolta’s 2018 film, “The Fanatic.” At the Egyptian Theatre red carpet event in Hollywood, Travolta described Alley as his “soulmate” to Us Weekly. When asked about the possibility of the two reuniting for the proposed reboot of the ’90s franchise (via Deadline), Travolta commented that he would only do so if his co-star was a part of it, saying, “It’s been 30 years [since ‘Look Who’s Talking’] … I would do anything with Kirstie. So let’s see what happens.” Alley’s feelings for Travolta ran even deeper, as she would reveal on a 2018 episode of Celebrity Big Brother UK. “I almost ran off and married John,” she admits. “I did love him. I still love him. If I hadn’t [have] been married, I would have gone and married him.”

After learning of Alley’s death, Travolta was understandably heartbroken, to say the least. The “Pulp Fiction” star took to social media to pay tribute to his dear co-star, writing, “Kirstie was one of the most special relationships I’ve ever had. I love you Kirstie. I know we will see each other again.” While we’ll never get a dream John Travolta and Kirstie Alley reunion, their work in “Look Who’s Talking” will live on as a testament to their love for one another.
