Lisa Marie had struggled with alcohol addiction and substance abuse for decades, and she also went to rehab many times for recovery. Many people claim that she went into her shell after her son died in 2020. At that time, she wrote, “My beautiful beautiful angel, I worshipped the ground you walked on, on this earth and now in Heaven. My heart and soul went with you. The depth of the pain is suffocating and bottomless without you every moment of every day. I will never be the same.” Last year, in May, she shared with fans, “there really isn’t much to say. As I am and will forever be mourning the loss of my son. Navigating through this hideous grief that absolutely destroyed and shattered my heart and my soul into almost nothing has swallowed me whole. Not much else aside from my other 3 children gets my time and attention any more.”
Lisa Marie is survived by her daughter Riley, and her 14-year-old twins, Harper and Finley. As per RadarOnline, the only child of Elvis was working on a much-anticipated book lately, where she would be revealing everything about her father and pop legend Michael Jackson. However, it is still being worked on and may get published despite her sudden demise.
The news of her death was confirmed by her mother Priscilla Presley, "It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us. She was the most passionate strong and loving woman I have ever known.” The 77-year-old further stated, “We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this profound loss. Thank you for the love and prayers. At this time there will be no further comment."
