Lisa Marie Presley, Elvis Presley’s sole child, died at 54.
“It is with a heavy heart that I must convey the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,” Lisa Marie’s mother, Priscilla, said in a statement.
“I’ve never met someone as passionate, strong, and loving as she was. We ask for privacy as we work through the grief of this devastating loss. Thank you for your prayers and kindness. At this time, no more comments will be given.”
Just two days before, Lisa Marie and her mother Priscilla attended the Golden Globes to celebrate Austin Butler’s win for best actor for his portrayal of Elvis in the matching Baz Luhrmann film. Lisa Marie sobbed as he thanked the family for their help during his award speech.
Lisa Marie Presley, the only child of Elvis Presley and his wife Priscilla, was born in 1968. She followed in her mother’s footsteps by recording three albums, the first of which was released in 2003.
She was in relationships with Nicolas Cage, Danny Keough, Michael Lockwood, and the famous musician Michael Jackson.
The mother of four was rushed to the hospital on Thursday morning, but she died later that day.
According to a TMZ report released earlier in the day, the 54-year-old was discovered lifeless in her bedroom at her Calabasas home. She has since been placed in an induced coma and given a temporary pacemaker. According to reports, her housekeeper discovered her. Lisa Marie’s ex-husband Danny, with whom she still shared a home, immediately began performing CPR until paramedics came.
She had four children. The middle one, Benjamin Keough, her second child with Danny, committed suicide in 2020 at 28. The mother was 51 years old.
Riley Keough, his older sister, is 33 years old and will play Daisy Jones in a forthcoming television series based on Taylor Jenkins-bestselling Reid’s book Daisy Jones and The Six.
Finley Aaron Love Lockwood and Harper Lisa’s children are 14-year-old twins Vivienne Ann Lockwood. Michael Lockwood, the singer’s ex-husband who was married to Rihanna from 2006 to 2016, is their father.
In a lengthy statement, Tom Hanks and his wife Rita, who also worked on the Elvis biography, praised Lisa’s “eloquent” portrayal of her father and “what the movie meant to her, that it was a celebration of her father.”
Rita regarded Lisa Marie as “extremely honest, straightforward, vulnerable, and excited about the movie.”
“She made Graceland feel like home to us by personally taking us around.”
“Lisa, baby girl, I’m sorry,” John Travolta apologized on social media. “Although I’ll miss you, I’m convinced I’ll see you again. Riley, Priscilla, Harper, and Finley have my attention.”
“I will never forget the hours we spent together,” Donnatella Versace said with a photo of the fashion designer and Lisa Marie. “Your kindness and beauty shone so brilliantly. Lisa Marie, rest in peace. We will always remember you.”
Pink hailed Lisa Marie as “one of a kind, hilarious as [expletive], clever as a whip, sensitive, talented, witty, cruel, kind, kind, judgmental but always right, loyal, and you adored your children” in a heartfelt statement.
