Brigitte Kruse, a former business partner of Priscilla Presley, has made explosive claims against Riley Keough in a recent lawsuit. Kruse alleges that Keough is the biological mother of John Travolta’s youngest son, Ben. This revelation has garnered significant media attention.
Allegations in the Lawsuit
The lawsuit suggests that Travolta and his late wife, Kelly Preston, utilized Keough’s eggs to conceive Ben, who was born in 2010. Documents reveal that Kruse contends Keough was compensated between $10,000 and $20,000, along with an old Jaguar, in exchange for her eggs.
Background Context
According to Kruse, the arrangement stemmed from a prior incident involving Keough’s late mother, Lisa Marie Presley. Kruse claims that Lisa Marie had previously donated her eggs to Travolta and Preston after they faced difficulties conceiving.
However, Kruse asserts that Travolta and Preston opted not to use Lisa Marie’s eggs for Ben due to concerns over her drug use. Kruse’s lawsuit not only targets Keough but also revises a previous $50 million lawsuit involving Presley’s son, Navarone Garibaldi Garcia, over breach of contract.
Response from Priscilla Presley’s Representative
Priscilla Presley’s attorney, Marty Singer, has firmly denied the allegations made by Kruse. In a statement, Singer criticized Kruse’s claims, stating they are intended to inflict further harm on the Presley family.
He emphasized that these allegations are unrelated to the case at hand, labeling them as “outrageous” and “shameful.” Neither he nor a representative for Travolta were available for further comment at this time.
Family Backgrounds
- John Travolta shares three children with Kelly Preston: Jett (deceased), Ella Bleu, and Ben.
- Riley Keough is married to Ben Smith-Petersen and has two children.
This unfolding situation has captured the public’s attention, sequencing intricate family dynamics and legal disputes alongside personal tragedies. The outcome of this lawsuit remains to be seen as it unfolds in the media and the courts.
