“To all our friends, far and wide around the world… We are sad to inform you that our incredible, fierce and loving mother has passed away after a battle with cancer, only recently discovered,” the message read. “Our mother’s zest and passion for life, her children, grandchildren and her many animals, not to mention her eternal joy of creating, were unparalleled and leave. Us inspired to live life to the fullest just as she did,” the letter continued. “We thank you for your love and prayers and ask that you respect our privacy at this difficult time.”

Alley and Travolta’s on-screen chemistry was absolutely out of this world, and it reportedly almost became a reality, according Alley herself.

However, she was married at the time which prevented her from pursuing a more intimate relationship with him.

“If I hadn’t been married I would’ve gone and married him and I would’ve been in an airplane because he has his own plane,” she said.

He paid tribute to Alley on Monday writing, “Kirstie was one of the most special relationships I’ve ever had.
I love you Kirstie. I know we will see each other again.”

It seemed that every time he had a second to date her, she was in another relationship with Hollywood’s most eligible bachelor.
