Priscilla confirmed the news in a statement to peoplesaid:
“It is with a heavy heart that I have to share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us.”
He continued:
“She is the strongest and most loving woman I know. We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this deep loss. Thank you for your love and prayers. There will be no further comments at this time.
Another terrible loss for families who have seen their share.
Everyone knows Elvis was taken away very young at only 42 years old – while Lisa Marie was only 9. But sadly it was not the last premature loss for the Presleys. In June 2020, Lisa Marie’s son Benjamin Keoughwhich she shared with her first husband Danny Keough, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at a party. He was only 27. Benjamin suddenly passed away leaving Lisa Marie “beyond broken”; According to sources at the time, he was only holding things for his eldest daughter Riley Keough and his young twin, Finley Aaron Love Lockwood and Harper Vivienne Ann Lockwood. Last August he wrote an essay for people about loss, write:
“Death is a part of life whether we like it or not – and it’s sad. There’s a lot to learn and understand about it, but I know this far: The truth is that grief doesn’t stop or go away in any way, a year or a year after a loss .Grief is something you have to deal with for the rest of your life, despite what certain people or cultures want us to believe. You don’t ‘get over it,’ you don’t ‘move on,’ period…
It’s a real choice to move forward, one that I have to make every single day and one that I’m challenging to say the least… But I’m still going for the girls. I continued because my son made it very clear at the last moment that taking care of his sister and looking after him was at the forefront of his concerns and thoughts. He really loved her and her.”
Even more heartbreaking to read now…
Lisa Marie Presley took after her father. As a musician, he released three albums in his lifetime. However, as a celebrity from the time of his birth, he is always more known for his personal life – and eventually some very high-profile relationships. He is married to Michael Jackson and soon after for Nicholas Cage. He followed that with a tumultuous marriage Michael Lockwood. Danny was the only one who stayed close to her while raising her children.
We send all our love to his family at this very difficult time…
