Riley Keough Sees A 'New Side' of Grandma Priscilla Presley: 'But She Doesn't Want A War'

There has been a lot of family conflict since Lisa Marie Presley's death, especially after it was found that Priscilla Presley was left out of her will.

As a result, the former wife of Elvis Presley is at odds with her granddaughter, Riley Keough.

Lisa Marie died suddenly last month at the age of 54 after suffering a heart attack at her Los Angeles home.

With a lot of money on the table, it's no wonder that Priscilla is doubting the will's authenticity.

Priscilla was unaware that Lisa Marie changed her will in 2016 and eliminated her mother as an executor. Instead, she designated Riley and Benjamin as her only heirs. Benjamin, on the other hand, committed himself in 2020, leaving Riley as the sole heir.

Riley and Priscilla's prior tight friendship, according to a source who talked to Page Six, no longer exists. They are, in reality, "not speaking" to each other.

"It's just so heartbreaking," they continued.

This is when the Hollywood star would need her grandma, but due to the financial situation, "Riley is seeing a new side of her grandmother."

"Riley's not looking for a conflict. She's always had a nice connection with her grandma. Lisa had her troubles with her mother, but...she didn't bring [her kids] into [her] personal issues," an insider added.

Lisa Marie Presley apparently knew she would outlast her mother and that there would be no family feuding over a trust that was always intended for Riley and Benjamin.

"Why does Priscilla believe she is best suited to lead things? Why does she believe she should take over?" the insider pondered.

Priscilla Presley is likely to attend the Oscar Academy ceremony next month, where Austin Butler is widely predicted to win Best Actor for a biography about Elvis Presley.

Riley is unlikely to attend the event because of what is going on, according to the source.

Lisa Marie Presley got Elvis Presley's entire inheritance, including Graceland, and $100 million when she turned 25 in 1993, 16 years after the King of Rock and Roll died.

She is alleged to have squandered much of the money in the ensuing years.

Priscilla was a trustee of her daughter's inheritance until the amendment removed her in 2016.
