Lisa Marie Presley suffered a whole week before she passed away, insiders said. Not physically though, but emotionally and mentally.
The daughter of Elvis Presley addressed admirers at Graceland in a moving speech just days before her untimely death at age 54. In this supposedly happy event, she reportedly said that she rarely left the house.
Then last Sunday, to commemorate her father's 88th birthday, the singer-songwriter told the adoring gathering at her father's Memphis estate that they were the only ones who can get me out of the house
' Fans noted that the daughter of the King of Rock 'n' Roll, who had not posted on Instagram since August, was 'extremely sad' and'really grieving' two years after the suicide of her son Benjamin Keough, who is buried at Graceland alongside her father.
Two days later, she cried at the Golden Globes during Austin Butler's acceptance speech for his portrayal of "Elvis".
Shockingly, she died two days after this event, on Thursday in Calabasas, California, following a heart arrest.
Her staff reportedly discovered her unresponsive in her bedroom, and her ex-husband Danny Keough, with whom she had been living, performed CPR until paramedics came. She was formerly active on Instagram, uploading images of her family on a regular basis, but has not done so since August.
Lisa Marie married musician Keough after meeting at a drug rehabilitation program as a teenager. Benjamin and Riley are their two offspring. They divorced in the Dominican Republic in 1994, just prior to her elopement with Michael Jackson. Lisa Marie was engaged to musician John Oszajca in 2000, but she ended the engagement after meeting actor Nicolas Cage at a party.
She and Cage wed in August of 2002, but filed for divorce three months later. Then, Lisa Marie began a relationship with guitarist Michael Lockwood. They were married in 2006 and had twins, but separated ten years later after Lisa Marie falsely claimed to have discovered hundreds of child pornographic photographs on his computer.
She was also the sole heir to Elvis's estate and Graceland, his sprawling mansion in Memphis, Tennessee. However, her father's formidable and ever-present legacy did not deter her from pursuing a career in music independently.
In the summer of 2003, Lisa Marie Presley's debut studio album, "To Whom It May Concern," reached No. 5 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and was certified gold. She wrote the majority of the album's lyrics and co-wrote every melody. Lisa Marie Presley told Larry King at the time that she had to "park" feelings of pressure and comparison to her father, the legendary singer Elvis Presley. "If I had been thinking about that, worrying about that, which I kind of had for a long time I would have never done what was sort of innately in my heart, in my soul," she said. "So I had to stop being worried about that, it was too intimidating otherwise."
