In her childhood bedroom at Graceland, Lisa Marie Presley liked to sing along to 45s on a little record player. “My dad would catch me,” she recalled.
“I’m sure he got a kick out of it. He’d put me up on the coffee table in front of everybody and make me sing.”
Lisa Marie’s memories of her doting father, Elvis Presley, will be among the sweetest anecdotes in her posthumous memoir, due out Oct. 15. “Few people had the opportunity to know who my mom really was,” says Riley Keough, Lisa Marie’s actress daughter, who polished the manuscript after her mother’s unexpected death at 54 last January. “Lisa Marie had been working on her book for years,” says a family friend, who called the story “90 percent finished” when Riley, 34, took over. “Lisa Marie didn’t want to hold anything back.”
The life of the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley drew gossip and speculation from the moment of her birth, in 1968. Sometimes it sounded like a fairy tale. The indulgences Elvis lavished on Lisa Marie — including a diamond ring, a fur coat and a spontaneous flight to Utah to play in her first snow — have become legend.
