Lisa Marie welcomed daughter Riley and son Benjamin with ex-husband Danny Keough – to whom she was married from 1988 to 1994. Benjamin by suicide in 2020 at the age of 27.
She welcomed twin daughters Harper and Finley in 2008 with then-husband Michael Lockwood, but the couple divorced in 2016.
Lisa Marie, who was a singer-songwriter with three studio albums between 2003 and 2012, had attended the 80th Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles with her mother Priscilla just two days before her passing.
The mother and daughter duo made it a point to be at the awards ceremony in a show of support for Baz Luhrmann’s critically acclaimed biopic Elvis (2022) starring Austin Butler as the legendary King Of Rock And Roll, Elvis Presley.

As she walked the red carpet of the event, Lisa Marie looked frail and frail, which led her to lean on longtime friend of the family, Jerry Schilling, who is now 81 years old.
While being interviewed by Billy Bush for Extra, she clasped arms with Schilling and told him, “I’m going to grab your arm.”
Both ladies were very open and honest in their praise of Luhrmann’s biopic, which focused on Elvis’ 20+ year relationship with his manager Colonel Tom Parker, and Butler’s performance as Elvis.
10 days after her passing, hundreds of people attended a public memorial at Graceland in Memphis on January 22, and more than 1.5 million people also watched the service via a live stream.
