John Travolta has had to cut an Australian visit short as his wife Kelly Preston has entered labour at their home.

Travolta was in the country as part of the Qantas airline's 90th anniversary. However, when he heard the news he reportedly flew back home in his personal Boeing 707, according to the Herald Sun.

The actor confirmed last week that the couple were expecting a boy, to be named Benjamin.

The couple already have a daughter, Ella Bleu, 10. Their son Jett died of a seizure during a family holiday last year.
