John Travolta and Kelly Preston's 16-year-old son, Jett, who had a history of health problems, was killed by a "seizure," according to the death certificate issued today.

While the official results of an autopsy today have yet to been publicly announced, mortician Glen Campbell of the Restview Memorial Mortuary in the Bahamas confirmed to E! News that cause of death was a seizure and "there was no sign of head trauma."

"The body was in good condition," Campbell said.

A source close to the proceedings also told E! News that a preliminary report on Jett's death determined "there is no foul play," corroborating what a Travolta family lawyer initially stated last Friday.

"It is not a suspicious death. The body wouldn't already be turned over to the mortuary if there was anything suspicious," the source said. Autopsies are standard procedure in the Bahamas in cases of sudden death.

Bahamian Minister of Health Hubert Minnis did not say when, or if, the autopsy findings would be made public. Bahamian official and close Travolta family friend Obie Wilchcombe tells E! News that the autopsy was completed at 12 p.m. local time.

Mortuary director Keith McSweeney also confirmed that Jett's body is being cremated. "The remains will be turned over to his family tomorrow," he said.

In light of Monday's autopsy finding that Jett Travolta, the 16-year-old son of John Travolta and Kelly Preston, died of a seizure, a medical expert tells E! News that seizures can cause death, even when the person who suffers one is taking medication to manage them.

"You can die during a seizure because of some manifestations in the brain," says retired forensic pathologist and former Detroit-area medical examiner Dr. Werner Spitz.

"It is not unusual that people die from a seizure disorder where the seizure disorder is known...If he has a known seizure disorder documented by medical records and he was treated as such, then that is almost a given."

"But you might not find an absolute cause of death when seizures are the cause," Spitz added. "The absolute cause would take at least two weeks so everything can be tested."

Lindsay Lohan has used her blog to do some important stuff, like support Obama and diss her dad. And now she's using it to deny that she and her frequent sparring partner, Samantha Ronson, have broken up.

In an entry titled "Rumors" and dated Monday, Lohan writes on her MySpace Celebrity blog:

"little piece of TRUE information...we did NOT break up!"

A source close to the actress told E! News today that the rumors weren't true, but the missive follows a statement she made to Life & Style denying the split after Access Hollywood, TMZ.com and various celeb-gossip landing sites reported that the two were over.

"access hollywood, extra, et, every tabloid, page six... AND every GOSSIP website," Lohan continues. "Get your stories straight please. It's really annoying to have all of your friends emailing you saying, i saw, i read, etc... NOT TRUE

":) xoxox Lindsay"

Well, at least she's still in good enough humor to write "xoxox."

Forget pretty ponies or science homework, Kate Hudson reveals in the new Elle that something else was on her teenage mind.

"When I was a teenager, like, when I turned 16, I loved boys. That was just my thing," says the Bride Wars actress. "I still love boys." (This may or may not explain her romances with Owen Wilson, Lance Armstrong and Dax Shepard.)

As an adult, she seems to have learned much from her mom, Goldie Hawn, about the proper care and feeding of a relationship.

"People think that you can put your sexual life on hold, but you have to find time for it. Without that relationship, our family is broken. My mom really implanted that in me when I was pregnant."

Wait a minute, Kate: She told you about sex after you were pregnant?

You can take the case out of court, but can you take the court out of the case?

Roman Polanski, who last month moved to have a decades-old charge of unlawful intercourse with a minor dismissed, filed a motion Monday to have the entire case removed from the Los Angeles Superior Court system and handed to the California Judicial Council for review.

Citing judicial bias and misconduct that was alleged in the recent documentary Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired, the 75-year-old filmmaker's legal camp states that the "entire case should be referred to the Judicial Council for further proceedings and a determination free from even the appearance of bias and taint."

On the job, Patricia Arquette sees dead people. In real life, she sees divorce lawyers.

The Medium star has filed for divorce from her husband of two and a half years, Punisher hero Thomas Jane. (View the petition.)

She cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split, according to documents filed Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court.

The duo, who swapped vows May 15, 2006, have a 5-year-old daughter, Harlow Olivia Calliope. Per her petition, Arquette is requesting sole legal and physical custody of the child, with visitation privileges for Jane.

Ghost Whisperer Jennifer Love Hewitt's engagement to Ross McCall has fizzled into silence.

"They broke up over the holidays and have ended their engagement," a source close to the couple told People. "They're both really sad about this. Even their friends are surprised; they seemed really happy. Everyone just wants the best for both of them."

The actress, 29, got engaged to the Band of Brothers star in November 2007 after two years of dating. The pair never set a wedding date—or, if they did, they only spoke of it in hushed tones.

With her immortalized (in song, at least) wonderland bod back in shape, surely there will be plenty of men who can't hardly wait to spend time with Love.
