Riley Keough stuck doing promo for her new show while she’s still in tears over the tragic and horrific death of her mother, Lisa Marie Presley. It’s not my favorite position if we’re being honest. We want to just curl up in bed for like a year…
At least not Daisy Jones and Six star has a lot to be grateful for he can talk about. Like his wife’s whining, Ben Smith-Petersen. And, it turns out, some magical power??

He paid a visit to Stephen Colbert Friday night and revealed that his premonitions sometimes come true! This musical Amazon show is one of the insights that become real life. But perhaps most important is the revelation that she will marry Ben – something she suddenly realizes about him. the second date! He explains:
“I don’t see the future, but I know it’s going to happen. Like when I met my husband, he was coming out of a gas station on our second date and I thought, ‘I’m going to get married and have kids.’
I mean… we had that feeling when we saw him too, tbh.
But Riley was right exercise get married and have children! But the feeling that day, not much desire, he maintained. That knowledge:
“I just know. We haven’t said ‘I love you’ yet.”
When Colbert asked him if he told him not-even-girlfriend about this premonition, he said HELL NO!
“It certainly wasn’t at the time. I thought, ‘If I tell you now, they’ll leave me in Australia at a gas station.'”
Ha! Yes, it’s definitely a good call! Read the full Riley Late Show interview (below)!
BTW, speaking of Australia…
You’ve also seen Ben Smith-Petersen earlier than you realised! The actor and stuntman has yet to find fame, but he played one of the best characters in a big movie, Oscar– win a hit Mad Max: Fury Road. In fact, that’s where he and Riley met (he was one of Immortan Joe’s harem criminals of his imprisoned supermodel wife).
So who is Ben? As a stuntman, he played several different characters, but the most famous one was… this guy!
Yes it is! The Doof Warrior, who plays flamethrower guitar in front of a warband. That’s sometimes Ben and sometimes musicians Sean againaka iOTA – maybe Ben for something more action oriented.
This is what she looked like when Riley first met her! LOLz!
Uh…he probably has a good personality? Well, it turns out she’s hot in all that makeup!
See Riley reveal her husband’s not-so-sexy screen persona in hilarious Conan O’Brien interview from a few years ago (below)!
