The National Enquirer recalled how John Travolta slammed gay allegations thrown by Doug Gotterba, who was also the former pilot of the actor's private plane. Since it was also dismissed with prejudice, the case can never be filed again. The lawsuit was reportedly signed off as per Doug Gotterba's request. Right after the development was reported by Radar Online, people quickly speculated that the 'Pulp Fiction' actor probably paid his ex-pilot to cancel the scandalous lawsuit.Ī court clerk confirmed earlier this week that John Travolta's self-proclaimed gay lover, Doug Gotterba, specifically requested last July 31 for Santa Barbara Superior Court Judge Donna Geck to dismiss their highly-anticipated case. John Travolta's alleged gay lover surprisingly dropped their high-profile case just one week before they were supposed to face each other in court.
