Olivia Newton-John’s family is candid about the poignant way she “visited” them in the first year after her death.
The beloved Grease star passed away at the age of 73 after a lengthy battle with breast cancer last August, and her daughter Chloe Lattanzi, 37, has explained how she felt – and saw – her mother’s spiritual presence.
Speak against People magazineshe explained, “Two weeks after she passed, my phone accidentally took a picture of my dog, and there was a little blue orb floating there, the same color as this (aquamarine pendant).”
The necklace had been a gift from Olivia’s husband John Easterling, 71, to his wife, who gave it to her daughter shortly before she died.

Chloe further explained the significance of seeing an orb of that color when she revealed that her mother had promised to reveal her presence that way.
“Mom and I talked years ago,” Chloe continued. “We’d watch these paranormal shows and I’d say, ‘You have to show up for me.’ And she was like, “I’ll show up as one of those boldies.”
John then noted that he had a very similar encounter just two months ago at a private memorial ceremony in Peru.
The widower had gone to where they said “yes” to commemorate what would have been their 15th wedding anniversary.
He told the publication, “I took a picture and this blue orb is right between my eyes. It’s been a supernatural year.’
In June, Chloe opened up to fans about her supernatural encounter, revealing that she was later seen floating the same “blue orb” in a photo of her stepmother Nancy Chuda.
“It’s breathtaking and amazing. It’s my mother in mind,” she said with a knowing smile.

In another recent interview on Stellar’s Something to Talk About podcast, Chloe explained how living with husband James Driscoll on Olivia’s ranch in California helps her feel her mother’s spirit.
She said, “It’s a place where I have a tangible feeling, even though I feel her in the spirit around me, it’s a tangible place where I feel my mother.”

“For example, I can walk on the ground and say, ‘Her foot was here.’ And I can sit in her favorite chair and know she’s sat there a thousand times and just imagine I was sitting on her lap.
Chloe continued, “She still lives there for me.”
