TheFace/Offstar has spent the past year grieving the loss of his wife in private, working through this “personal journey.” Travolta said in a profile withEsquire Mexicothis April that healing has been complicated and the outpouring of support hasn’t exactly been helpful.
“The most important thing you can do to help another person when they are in mourning is allow them to live through it and not complicate it with yours,” he told the publication. “Even though it’s great to have company, sometimes it turns into you helping them instead of you working on your loss and grief.”
“You have no idea how many people have come up to me … and afterward I’ve felt saturated with everyone else’s pain that I didn’t know what to do,” Travolta continued, noting that he still appreciates the condolences. “The first thing you should do while going through grief is go somewhere where you can truly mourn, with no interruptions.”
