"Kelly's love and life will always be remembered. I will be taking some time to be there for my children who have lost their mother, so forgive me in advance if you don’t hear from us for a while. But please know that I will feel your outpouring of love in the weeks and months ahead as we heal. All my love, JT."
John and Kelly have a son, Benjamin, nine, and their other child, Jett, tragically died in 2009, at the age of 16, after suffering a seizure on holiday.
