Elvis Presley granddaughter: 'There's a lot of emotion around listening to King's music'
Elvis Presley died on August 16, 1977. The singer, who was just 42-years-old at the time, died of a cardiac arrest in his home at Graceland. He left behind a fiancée, Ginger Alden, a daughter, Lisa Marie Presley and his ex-wife, Priscilla Presley. Lisa Marie’s daughter, Riley Keough, never met her grandfather, but his legacy has no doubt followed her throughout her life. Sometimes, she revealed, this was a tragic thing.
Riley recently appeared on the Just For Variety podcast where she was asked if she listens to Elvis’ music.
She replied: “I don’t put it on. If it’s on, I’ll listen to it.”
Riley then opened up about her family’s relationship with Elvis’ music.
She said: “There’s definitely emotion around it. There was definitely a lot of grief around it growing up, especially seeing my mom and my grandma.
“There was a sad thing, tragic kind of a thing… so there was definitely that relationship to it.”
