"I didn't say the word affair, ever," Kirstie, 61, told Kimmel. "It wasn't sexual affairs."

She said that she fell in love with Travolta -- and he reciprocated -- while shooting the 1989 comedy Look Who's Talking, in which they played love interests of one another. (She added she has an excellent relationship with Travolta's wife, Kelly Preston.)
