1967 wedding with the bride's buffant and coal rimmed eyes staring at her Superstar husband to family images with daughter Lisa Marie Elvis Presley and Priscilla Presley remain ingrained in our culture and over decades after Elvis's death things didn't stay Rosy for very long but Elvis's wife Priscilla is still carrying on his name after the death of Elvis's dad Vernon Presley in 1979 she became a co-executor of his estate and has played a crucial role in maintaining Graceland as a tourist attraction and making her ex-husband one of the wealthiest dead celebrities of all time in 2017 Priscilla stated to Entertainment Tonight that he was my mentor he was my confident I wrote this in my book Elvis and Me he was everything in my book I wrote my God because I lived and breathed him during Elvis and Priscilla Presley's marriage Lisa Marie Presley was conceived in Memphis exactly nine months after her parents wedding Priscilla told closer that Elvis was a devoted and caring parent but that he didn't do things like changing diapers because it wasn't a man's job and that he couldn't stand to see the baby feed because of the drool however when Lisa Marie was three he bought her a fur coat and gave her five dollars whenever she lost a baby tooth in 1975 he purchased his own plane and gave it the name Lisa Marie but Priscilla told people in 1978 my life was his life he had to be happy we never Disturbed him my problems were secondary furthermore she recounted to the publication people women gravitated to him so I would be nervous when he had to go places alone I would even go with him to get his teeth cleaned I always had an eye on him because everyone in the world was after him but she added I was always ready to greet him at the door and pamper him I loved taking care of Elvis very much I love tending to him I loved feeding him we would baby talk because you have to have your own language when you have that many people around it was a good life it was different but it was ours Elvis and priscillo finally parted ways and in an interview with closer Priscilla revealed that she left Elvis because of his infidelity for as long as I could she said she tried not to think about what was happening she knew but I did know that there was some finagling going on his prescription drug abuse also worsened and Priscilla revealed on Good Morning America that the scene in Bas lerman's Elvis biography in which her younger self urges her husband an unbelievable Austin Butler to get therapy for his dependence struck a chord Priscilla said that it was getting more and more frightening as time went by where he just was like rebelling Elvis had a short fuse and was not used to being told no Priscilla claimed if he saw somebody he didn't like on the TV he'd get his gun out and blow it up Priscilla stated then he would tell his daddy to go get another TV they were wooded for five years but Elvis and Priscilla split up in 1962 and eventually got a divorce the following year however the couple had been dating for about eight years before the wedding and the celebrity never got over his infatuation with his ex-wife he was so possessive and jealous that he thought about having one of Priscilla's lovers murdered he kept her on the receiving end of his non-stop calling for years both during the day and at all hours of the night until the day he passed away August 16 1977. despite Ginger alden's allegations that Elvis proposed to her while they were dating in his final months many closest to the King still did not take the connection seriously the Memphis Mafia Elvis's inner circle saw the romance as simply another one of the singer's many affairs graceland's longtime cook Mary Jenkins was taken aback by the news it really surprised me he told me that he would never marry again unless it was to Priscilla as many people did Jenkins assumed Elvis still had feelings for Priscilla even during intimate moments one of her renowned exes interfered with their relationship Chris Hitchens an author and close friend of Elvis and Priscilla interviewed photographer Terry O'Neill who had dated Priscilla in 1975. he explained that even after two years of being divorced Elvis would contact her at all hours of the day and night interrupting their intimate time together stating their lovemaking was frequently interrupted by phone calls from Elvis who although they had been divorced for two years still rang her at all hours of the day and night as O'Neill pointed out if she'd gone back to Elvis she would have been destroyed instead Elvis destroyed himself Priscilla wanted nothing to do with Elvis but they shared a daughter named Lisa Marie so that wasn't an option Elvis had a different mental picture of himself a fantasy of what his life could be like even though he never made an effort to stop his addictive behavior and womanizing during one night in Las Vegas Hitchens was backstage with Tom Jones Elvis and Priscilla when the king showed out images of his newborn daughter Lisa Marie as Elvis put it mama would be so proud If She Could See Me Now a married man with a baby she'd beat a grandmother and that would go a long way to making up for the loss of Jesse the actor was talking about his late twin brother who tragically passed away during childbirth Gladys Elvis mother was just 46 when she passed away in 1958 and he looked up to her as a role model after the divorce was finalized Hitchens spent time with Priscilla during which she explained what had gone wrong in the marriage he recounted eating lunch with her and her family while Lisa Marie sat nearby writing a letter to her dad according to Hitchens Priscilla was wrong to expect Elvis would mature and become more responsible after becoming a father Hitchens stated Priscilla had mistakenly believed that fatherhood would change Elvis and make him more responsible above all she had prayed that it would help him to stop taking the drugs that controlled his personality and that she freely admitted he had persuaded her to try Lisa Marie and Priscilla had instead revealed how the Stars spoiled their daughter as his own behavior deteriorated into an unhealthy Reliance on prescription medications at the center of Elvis and Priscilla's final chat was Lisa Marie's stay with her father at Graceland where the two had their final conversation despite their divorce and even on the night he died Elvis made a distressing phone call to Priscilla he wanted her back the king begged her to return but their final exchange was fraught Hitchens claimed the last time Elvis spoke to his ex-wife was by telephone on the night he died during that call they'd argued over travel arrangements for Lisa Marie their little daughter who'd asked for my help writing her letter to Daddy that afternoon in Priscilla's Garden it had been a tense conversation but at least they were on speaking terms and that had raised Mary Jenkins hopes of a marital reunion which might curb some of Elvis's excesses although their chat had been tense at least they were still able to communicate with one another Mary Jenkins expectations for a successful marriage reconciliation had been boosted because of this it was too late though later that night as Ginger and Lisa Marie were sleeping in their bedroom Elvis collapsed in his bathroom and died do you think Elvis really
