Sharon Stone, Seth Green, Sammy Hagar and Ella all commented on the post with heart emojis, before Travolta's 21-year-old daughter posted a tribute on her own page as well.
"Mama, thank you for all you have done for us and for this world," she captioned a photo of the mother-daughter duo from Ella's childhood. "I miss you and love you very much, but your smile, warmth and love is ever lasting. Wishing all of the moms a happy Mother's Day"

Kelly died at the age of 57 after her battle with breast cancer in July 2020. The tragic death followed the 2009 loss of the couple's 16-year-old son Jett, who died after suffering a seizure.
At the time of Kelly's passing, John revealed the news on social media.
"It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you that my beautiful wife Kelly has lost her two-year battle with breast cancer," he wrote on Instagram. "She fought a courageous fight with the love and support of so many."
"My family and I will forever be grateful to her doctors and nurses at MD Anderson Cancer Center, all the medical centers that have helped, as well as her many friends and loved ones who have been by her side," he continued. "Kelly’s love and life will always be remembered."
Ella paid tribute at the time as well, posting, "Anyone who is lucky enough to have known you or to have ever been in your presence will agree that you have a glow and a light that never ceases to shine and that makes anyone around you feel instantly happy."
