Priscilla Presley denies rumors that she’s in love with former Dallas co-star Patrick Duffy: ‘This is unbelievable’
Priscilla Presley denied she is in love with her Dallas co-star Patrick Duffy.
The 78-year-old actress addressed the rumors on Saturday, calling them “unbelievable” and “so crazy” during a Q&A event at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut.
She remembered reading about the rumors in a magazine the day before.
“Now there is a very important thing that I love Patrick Duffy, and I read this in a magazine that someone showed me yesterday,” said the ex-wife of the late Elvis Presley.
“I say, ‘This is unbelievable. This is so crazy.'”
Priscilla Presley, 78, denied she is in love with her Dallas co-star Patrick Duffy. The actress called the rumors “unbelievable” and “so crazy” during a question and answer session at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut, on Saturday.
She explained that the speculation started when the Dallas cast had a reunion at the Burbank Marriott Convention Center earlier this month.
She attended the event and spent time with Duffy, 75, and his partner, Linda Purl — who she said her co-star is “in love” with, according People.
“I hadn’t seen him in a long time and it was a great reunion,” she said of their cast reunion.
“Patrick told me how happy he was, and we talked to the audience and they had questions for us and that was it.”
After her divorce from the late rock icon, Presley began her acting career and starred in Dallas for six seasons from 1983 to 1988.
She and Duffy played high school sweethearts Jenna Wade and Bobby Ewing.
A few months earlier, Duffy recalled his reaction when he heard she would be joining the cast.
“It was incredible,” he said of his first film shoot with “Elvis’ Priscilla” on the Behind the Velvet Rope podcast in December 2023.
‘It was another gift that you will find honored in our company.’
During Presley’s Q&A on Sunday, she also discussed her relationship with the music legend and recalled learning about his infidelity.
“Every girl went after him,” she said of her late ex-husband.

“Whether he went on tour or went to Palm Springs or Vegas, obviously I know there are other things going on as well,” she explained.
Once while he was on the road, she remembered finding a letter in their mailbox saying they had “the best time” with him.
She later added, “I mean, the opportunities were there all the time. Even if he hit the road in other states, they knew he was coming and made offers.
‘And don’t get me wrong. I never liked Elvis to this day. He was a wonderful person. He had a big heart, but unfortunately he was Elvis Presley and every woman(s) went after him. I can imagine it being him, how he would take it.”
