The alleged details of a six-year romantic relationship between actor John Travolta and California pilot Doug Gotterba are being brought to light by the pilot himself.
Initially meeting in February 1981 during a pilot job interview, Gotterba disclosed to the National Enquirer that he and the “Grease” star became romantically involved by September of the same year, a claim Travolta’s representatives have labeled as “ridiculous.”
Maintaining evidence of the affair’s commencement through his log book and records, the 62-year-old pilot recounted a trip to Monterey, California, where they shared a memorable bottle of merlot at the Highlands resort in Carmel.
Gotterba expressed feeling courted by Travolta during their time together, culminating in an invitation for a massage that swiftly transitioned into intimacy.
Reflecting on their escapades, Gotterba mentioned romantic getaways to destinations like Hawaii, Amsterdam, and Kenya, where Travolta would occasionally bring women along as a facade while seeking solace in private moments with Gotterba.
To maintain appearances, Gotterba suggested Travolta find a girlfriend, eventually leading to the actor’s public relationship with Brooke Shields, which the pilot claimed lacked genuine chemistry as it served as a cover-up for their clandestine affair.
The relationship reportedly came to an end in 1986 due to escalating tensions, with Travolta exhibiting possessive behavior by frequently checking up on Gotterba unannounced and displaying signs of jealousy.
Their last encounter in 1992, after Travolta tied the knot with Kelly Preston, saw Gotterba daringly inquire about the actor’s s**ual preferences post-marriage, to which Travolta allegedly admitted to still favoring men over women.
This exposé surfaces following legal disputes involving two anonymous masseurs, referred to as John Does 1 and 2, who accused Travolta of inappropriate behavior during massage sessions.
However, these claims were later retracted, with Travolta providing alibis that debunked the allegations.
In response to the latest revelations, Travolta’s camp swiftly discredited the Enquirer’s interview with Gotterba, dismissing it as a recycled narrative previously circulated by the same publication.
The spokesperson emphasized the tabloid’s unreliability, referencing a past incident where Travolta was proven to be elsewhere during an alleged incident.
