- Penny Ferguson, who was at the zoo with her two-year-old son Aidan - told The Gold Coast Bulletin newspaper: "My son was in the pram and I heard a woman ask her son if he wanted to look at the baby, so I turned around and saw Kelly Preston and her two-year-old son Ben walking towards me. I got Aidan out of the pram and Kelly asked me how old he was and then John Travolta told me my son was gorgeous, which completely made my day. When you become a parent it isn't uncommon to chat and share advice with other random parents and their children - and this is exactly what this was like."
