Peanut wasn’t always called that. She used to be Mac N Cheese, a female puppy abandoned in front of a shelter along with her mom and three siblings, with no one looking for her. 🐾
Everything changed at the 2022 Oscars, when Jamie Lee Curtis took the stage with a dog in tribute to Betty White and her love for animals. John Travolta was in the audience with his son Ben, who was 11 at the time. Something about that scene moved him deeply. Weeks later, he adopted Peanut: not as the family pet, but as Ben’s dog. Ben’s alone. 💛
This Easter, Travolta posted from his home in Florida a sweet, everyday photo: Peanut posing next to a Lindt chocolate bunny, with the caption clarifying with a laugh that no, she wouldn’t eat it. The image was signed by John, Ella (25), and Ben (14). A family that continues building memories together, with a rescued little dog at the center, three years after losing Kelly Preston. 🐰🐾
