She is gracious, generous, poised, graceful, and gorgeous," Travolta shared. He also added, "I don't know how she came to be, and I don't take any credit other than just adoring her. And maybe that's a valid contribution."
In return, Ella regularly reflects on the special relationship she shares with her father on social media and the influence he has had on her life. "You make parenting look so easy, though it not always is," she wrote in 2021. She captioned the post on Instagram, "You make every day better than the one before it.
