Billy Ray Cyrus has been the latest star to offer condolences to John Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston over the sudden death of their teenage son.

Jeff Travolta was 16 when he suffered a seizure at the family's holiday retreat in the Bahamas on Friday night.

Oprah Winfrey, Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks have all sent messages of support to the family, and now Cyrus, whose teenage daughter Miley starred alongside Travolta in animated movie Bolt, has sent his condolences to the grief-stricken family.

He tells E! Online, "Our thoughts and prayers are with John and his family. They're great human beings and strong people. And, again, our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family."

There is still an air of mystery surrounding the death as rumours have been circulating that Jett was suffering from autism but John’s Scientology religion doesn’t recognise the illness. What’s more, it is believed that his cremated remains are being flown back to Florida later today, despite a ‘dummy’ hearse being sent out to fool the public.
