Priscilla Presley and her granddaughter Riley Keough are talking again after competing for control of Lisa Marie Presley’s estate.
Elvis’ ex-wife Priscilla confirmed that she enjoyed dinner with her granddaughter in Los Angeles before heading to the UK.
Priscilla, two weeks after Lisa Marie’s death in January, filed paperwork opposing a 2016 amendment to her daughter’s will, which removed Priscilla and Lisa Marie’s former business manager, Barry Siegel, as co-trustees and left Riley and her brother , Benjamin Keough, were named as the new co-curators.
It left Riley as the sole heir. Priscilla explained that while the lawsuit is pending, she and Riley are talking again.

A guest speaking to Priscilla during An Evening to Remember With Priscilla Presley in the UK revealed that she opened up about her relationship with Riley.
Guest Jackie Howse, who attended the event and a meet-and-greet with Priscilla, confided, “She was absolutely sweet. [I] wasn’t 100 percent sure what to expect… she was very soft spoken, very friendly.
Priscilla aired home video footage during her show, before the drama feud with Riley came up. Priscilla shot down such speculation and confirmed to the public that they had eaten before leaving for the UK.”
[Priscilla] just said, “You know, I went out to dinner with [her] before I came [here],” said Howse.
“She said, ‘Everything is fine.'” As for a so-called fallout, Howse said Priscilla remarked, “That’s not the case at all.”
“They weren’t true.” Howse told CBS that Priscilla responded when asked about the gossip surrounding the feud.
“It was very short, but she just said, ‘Don’t believe what was said.'”
Howse also said that Priscilla added, “Riley and I get along great.”
There was one more time Priscilla got emotional, and that was while discussing Riley and her success in the Prime Video series, Daisy Jones & The Six.
“She seemed very proud,” Howse said. She had actually said, ‘I’m really proud of her. Really proud of what she has achieved.’
You could see it on her face, how proud she was of the family.
This week, Lisa Marie’s half-brother Navarone, 36, confirmed that Priscilla and Riley are back in touch and that the trio even dined together in Beverly Hills late last month.
Asked directly on Instagram if the pair are in talks, he insisted, “Yeah, they’re fine. No feud,” adding, “We went out for dinner, it went great, it’s all good.
Lisa Marie’s good friend The Duchess Of York also played a part. The Duchess told US TV producers she hoped to speak to Riley on a recent visit to LA in an effort to “pave the way for peace between the two women.”
Currently, the lawsuit is still on schedule.
Priscilla, 77, recently asked a judge to invalidate the amendment, claiming she was not notified of the changes as required by the terms of the trust and suggesting her daughter’s signature may have been forged.
