Lisa Marie Presley sensed a tragedy before Elvis passed, her daughter Riley Keough reveals.

Renowned for his remarkable performances and beloved music, Elvis Presley left a void when he passed on August 16, 1977, at just 42 years old. Amidst the sorrow, his family recounts poignant memories, particularly those of his daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, who was just a child at the time.

The Night Before

Riley Keough, Elvis’s granddaughter, shared that her mother, Lisa Marie, felt something was amiss the night before Elvis’s death. At just nine years old, she was at Graceland with Elvis when she sensed this unsettling feeling after saying goodnight to him.

“The night before Elvis passed, she had a sense of impending loss,” Keough stated. The intimate details of that night were only later revealed, capturing her childhood intuition amidst the turmoil at Graceland.

A Childhood Shadowed by Grief

Growing up in the aftermath of Elvis’s passing was not easy for Lisa Marie. As her daughter expressed, Lisa Marie often grappled with the grief of losing her father. This overwhelming sense of loss sometimes found her alone, listening to Elvis’s music and reflecting through tears.

Keough reminisced, “I would find her in moments of solitude, simply overcome with emotion, as she listened to his beloved songs.”

Personal Bonds amidst Turmoil

The unique bond Lisa Marie shared with Elvis was formed through early years spent mostly in his company at Graceland. Despite chaotic surroundings, the sanctuary of private moments upstairs provided her with cherished time alongside her father. Such cherished remembrances are now documented in Riley Keough’s conversations.

Remembering Lisa Marie and Elvis

Keough shared these heartfelt insights in her first major interview since her mother’s passing earlier this year. Lisa Marie, who tragically died from a bowel obstruction at 54 on February 12, 2023, continuously honored her father’s legacy throughout her life.

Riley’s story depicts not only a family history of fame and music but underscores the challenging journey through grief and remembrance. Their extraordinary lives will be chronicled in “An Oprah Special: The Presleys — Elvis, Lisa Marie and Riley,” airing on CBS, representing a heartfelt tribute to the legacies of both Elvis and Lisa Marie.
