Kelly Preston was born with the spirit of “aloha” in October of 1962 in Honolulu, Hawaii.But her childhood wasn’t all sandy beaches and sunny skies.In fact, an unspeakable tragedy struck her family when she was just three years old. Her biological father drowned in an apparent accident. Fortunately, she wouldn’t be fatherless for long. Shutterstock

Shortly after her biological father drowned, Preston’s mother remarried and her stepfather legally adopted her. He then uprooted the new family and moved them to a strange new world: Iraq.

Preston was lucky to be alive. To downplay her own recklessness, she concocted a falsehood about the accident, telling her parents that she'd been trying to avoid crashing into a s...

At first, Preston hated Australia and her new life. In time, however, she warmed up to it—and, from the sounds of it, Australia warmed to her too. While living in Australia, Preston matured from an awkward tomboy into a beautiful young woman. In fact, she was so attractive that a photographer singled her out and asked her to pose for some pictures....
After two long years in Australia, Preston and her family returned to Hawaii. And this time, she was a stunning woman with the whole world at her feet. But she had no way of knowing that, as she returned stateside, so too had the photographs that she had taken with the photographer from Australia.
