Lisa Presley rang mum Priscilla ‘concerned’ during Michael Jackson marriage
Priscilla Presley breaks down during emotional TalkTV interview
Priscilla Presley has admitted daughter Lisa Marie Presley was “really concerned” during her marriage to Michael Jackson, who died in 2009.
The Thriller hitmaker became Elvis Presley’s daughter’s second husband in 1994, with their marriage lasting two years.
In a rare new interview, Priscilla, 78, detailed the concerns Lisa had about Michael when he was always working away.
She said: “I was honest with her. I remember being in Hawaii and we were walking together on the beach, and she said, ‘Mom, I’m really concerned,’ this is while they were married, and she said, ‘I never see him. He is always gone’.”
Of her reaction, Priscilla proceeded to say: “I go, ‘where does he go?’ She goes, ‘I don’t know, I don’t know where he goes. He will call me maybe three or four days later’.

“I said, ‘Well don’t you ask him where he is going?’ She goes, ‘Just said he has things to do’.”
After recalling the conversation in an interview with Piers Morgan on Talk TV, Priscilla is said to have shaken her head slowly.
She went on to say she believes Michael “loved” and “respected” Elvis, but admitted having the pair’s names associated left her “concerned”, which she told Lisa at the time.
Piers went on to ask: “You thought that was his main motivation?”
“I did… don’t get me wrong, I thought he was very talented, truly talented, but I never really got to know him,” she added.

Elvis’ ex-wife went on to admit she would’ve preferred it if they hadn’t married as, she claimed, Michael was “so intrigued” about the late King of Rock and may have gone for Lisa because she was a Presley.
Lisa died aged 54 after being rushed to hospital with stomach pain back in January.
Authorities later said the cause was due to complications from bariatric surgery she had several years ago.
During her lifetime, she was married four times firstly to Danny Keough, who she had two children with, followed by Michael.
In 2002, she went on to tie the knot with Nicolas Cage for two years and once they divorced, she married Michael Lockwood.
In her chat with Piers, Priscilla broke down in tears as she reflected on the death of her mother, daughter and Lisa’s son Ben.
The latter took his own life back in 2020 aged just 27 after reportedly suffering from depression.
Elvis’ ex-wife said the tragedies were “unbearable” to deal with as she struggled to contain her emotions.
She went on to say: “Losing Ben was the hardest thing for her, he took his own life, he was the love of her life. She adored him, she would do anything for him.”
