Remembering Elvis: Priscilla Presley's Journey Through Life and Legacy
Priscilla Presley fondly remembers her late husband, Elvis Presley, as she reflects on their life together at Graceland. She cherishes his sense of humor and the fun they had during their six-year marriage and 18-year friendship. Despite their divorce in 1973, Priscilla and Elvis remained close, always caring for each other and spending time together with their daughter, Lisa Marie.
Family is of utmost importance to Priscilla, who is a grandmother to Lisa Marie's children and a great-grandmother to Riley's two kids. She has faced heartbreaking losses in recent years, including the passing of Lisa Marie and her grandson, Benjamin. Priscilla shares a special bond with Riley and values their close relationship, along with the strong connections within their family.
Priscilla embarked on a global tour in 2025 to discuss her memoir, "Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis," which delves into her memories and experiences. Writing the book was an emotional journey, allowing her to revisit both joyful and challenging moments from her past. She enjoys engaging with audiences during her tour, sharing stories and answering questions, including dispelling myths about Elvis, such as the rumor about him wearing a toupee.
Looking ahead to 2026, Priscilla plans to continue touring with her show, which has taken her to various cities worldwide. She reflects on Elvis's legacy and imagines him still singing and touring if he were alive today. Priscilla's book, "Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis," is available now, offering readers a glimpse into her life with the King of Rock and Roll.
