you can tell just by the way she speaks of Elvis, that, despite being divorced from him when he passed, there was and is a deep love between them. She truly loved him.
@@matrix5000100 that’s fine. I’m just saying, in comparison to other divorced couples, who tend to be quite bitter and resentful, their relationship is lovely to see.
It's pretty pathetic, really. Her marriage to Elvis was so short-lived (6 years) when she was quite young, you'd think he would be no more than a small blip in her life, especially since she had to raise her daughter on her own. From what I've heard, even from her, Elvis was kind of a controlling jerk, so I think she probably speaks well about EVERYONE. It's just her manner of communicating. She hasn't had to work or accomplished anything in her entire life, and she's been pretty sheltered. It's easier to remain genteel when you've had no life challenges.
@@charmingjinx9379 not sure how you can say in one sentence that she raised her child alone. And then say she didn't have any life challenges. Wow. Lol
I luv that “Please Don’t Do That!” She didn’t appreciate him making fun of Elvis.. Thank you Pricilla; I wouldn’t have liked that either. She said it being Assertive with Such Class 👏
He was very rude and disrespecting Elvis this needed to be respective of Percilla not a comedy interview,she was respective of the host hope he apologized
@@ceceliajamieson1852 totally agree! She was not going to allow that to happen. He even said I won’t do it in front you and she replied don’t it in front of anyone 👏👏👏

Anyway she was extraordinarily beautiful when she was young and she's been over exerting herself on the plastic surgery front for decades.

She has always carried herself and spoken with such class! The way she has navigated through his death, his legacy, raising Lisa Marie is an inspiration. I like many others hope she knows how much people love and respect her as her own person. Great interview.

@@gassbaggerwoods5955 yes and im sure because you were there you obviously know about his wishes and if he conveyed them to his EX-wife who was completely estranged to him for years at that point and he was not in his right mind or spirit as is FACTUALLY recorded in almost every biography or memories from all the people around him at that time! oh and lets not mention the fact from her own words elvis was not a good husband and emotionally abusive and neglectful! so hmmm yeah im sure if he was just a regular shlub she would be as you put it "wanting to see his wishes respected and carried out!' lol elvis was human and had flaws.. sorry to burst your blinded bubble of idol worship! you dont know her and you dident know elvis PERSONALLY I assume! i on the other hand was stating my opinion about the general concept of incentive and money related to a famous figure post death. is that ok!?
Yes his legacy lives on, but I rarely see where Pricilla acknowledges his legacy stemmed from him getting his inspiration from African American music! Yes she is finally saying this 40 to 50 years later and of course after all those checks have been deposited to the banks! Elvis was just another modern day master of a plantation at his time, he just didn't beat his slaves he just stole their music, style , mannerism, etc. Yes, he bought his black made a house, but that was after she had given all of her youth too him! I'm not saying the man raped , but I will say he pillage and plundered the black musicians who sand soul, jazz, blues and yes even country music! Pricilla pretends he had good black friends, but their are no stories of said black friends visiting Elvis at his house or eating and sleeping at his house. If she had that she would've have produced it now to debunk the stories about him! I'm not saying he was a racist, but he was definately a cultural appropriator. Show me a tape where Elvis performed music for black and white people together. But my grandparents saw him when he was in juke joints and always trying to assimilate with black people , then days later he was on the rode singing original songs they wrote and singing like that was his own music etc. Elvis today would be a moder day Tom Jones or Vanilla Ice!
@@mybiz2167 Sadly, Mrs Reeves did pass away. I read that she died of lung cancer and didn't even smoke. Apparently she was exposed to secondhand smoke all her life by being a singer and growing up performing in places with smokers. Second hand smoke, is no joke. BTW, I'm Not judging smokers by any means. I just thought I would say what happened to his Mrs Reeves.
She is so classy, and presents herself (and Elvis) in such a beautiful way. You can tell she does NOT play around about anyone trying to misconstrue Elvis' name; this video literally brought tears to my eyes. Despite any personal things that they went through, you can just tell how much she respects him and his image, and you can feel the love she had for him through any interview you could ever find of her. I already know he has to be looking down at her now knowing he picked such a good woman. I truly hope she knows how much that not only he, but all of the people that love him, love her.
I feel bad for her, when he was intimate with other women while on tour. Also she felt so much pain because of all the pills he was taking. So difficult.
Are you kidding? People said and wrote vicious lies about Elvis and she was the only one who could sue for him but she refused. She was one of the producers for Elvis and Me, and let it go out depicting Elvis as a rapist. She could not care less about his name, except as if effects her.
Actually, her face was SO damaged with all that plastic surgery, that WHENEVER she smiles or giggles, ALWAYS she looks down, because her face resembles The Joker from Batman. Sad, but VERY true. Just watch when EVER she smiles, or tries to, the VERY first thing she does, is to LOWER lower her face or to look COMPLETELY down. Very unattractive!!
@@patriciacoddington730 Just allow someone to give her a compliment in peace… it’s astonishing how some of you HAVE to add negativity during moments where there is none. Go heal.
I’m a huge Elvis fan and I’ve always admired Priscilla and am so thankful for all she has done to keep Elvis legacy alive❤️God Bless her and the Presley family🙏❤️
@@marilynking4003 Elvis is alive! Is a White Hat working with President Trump who is a first cousin. Elvis has the Christ bloodline. He has been Pastor Bob Joyce for many years, married his childhood sweetheart and has children, Matthew, Sabrina and 2 others. Priscilla is on the Dark side....how does she have no wrinkles at her age ?
I think she’s wonderful. Although she felt she had to have her own life and move on, she still clearly remained in love with him throughout her life. She is the mother of his child, the spitting image of Elvis and she has looked after Elvis the business to this day, with grace, huge love and respect for him. Thank you Priscilla ❤️
I’m here after hearing about Lisa Marie. How devastating. I feel terrible. Priscilla has had so much loss in her life. Prayers to her and her granddaughters.
First time i watched an interview with her. She is so soft spoken. class, elegance. her hair looks amazing. Love her eyes. like she is just a stunning person.
She deserves a tremendous amount of respect, not only for who she is and and an integral part of the legacy of Elvis, but her protecting that legacy all these years and her patience and tolerance of fans and media. It was such an honor to have Priscilla share the International Hotel Award Buckle and belt on the show-WOW!
Priscilla has wisely marketed the Graceland, Elvis brand and that has been hard work all these years. She cares about Elvis’ fans and it is SO commendable.
first of all she met Elvis a that age. She went to his house when almost 18th. Has been her to stalk Elvis to call her parent for let her go to Graceland, then nobody forced her to stay there she could back to her family!!! It's time to stop once and for all to pity her: "poor she was so young!" She (supported by her parents), did it because she had a goal, and follow it until she obtained what she wanted, so she is to blame as much as Elvis. That's all!!
@@danielacolnaghi7739 no. Read Priscilla’s OWN book. She was going to a Catholic girl’s high school while LIVING at Graceland. No18 yr old girl is doing that. But I agree Priscilla wanted Elvis and the prestige and the money. She knew exactly what she was doing and her parents really blew it letting their underage daughter do it.
They still loved each other. Elvis wanted to get back together and Priscilla told him that he needed to stop seeing other women. To this day, she keeps his memory alive. She is an incredibly classy woman. Thank you for posting this!!!
Just to make the facts clear: Elvis didn't want a divorce but she preferred to discover the world with another guy at that time. It was indeed a couple where both partners were unfaithful but managed their divorce better than their marriage.
Не надо все переворачивать. Элвис Пресли ещё до брака говорил Присцилле, что не может заниматься сексом с женщиной, которая родила ребёнка. Поэтому у него были измены жене вскоре после родов. Когда Присцилла была на 7 месяце беременности, Элвис сказал жене: "Может нам отдохнуть друг от друга?" Так что Присцилла просто вынуждена была увлечься другим мужчиной. Иначе она просто сидела бы дома и ждала Элвиса. А Элвис развлекался с другими женщинами. Правильно ли сделала Присцилла? Трудно сказать. Это было её решение. Наверное, Элвис хотел, чтобы она была заменой его любимой матери. Жаль, конечно. Если бы она не ушла, он бы ещё пожил. Он умер от одиночества. Он был к ней привязан. А бабы все разбежались.
Надо уважать и ценить таланты на нашей земле....... Элвис и Присцилла создали семью , родили ребёнка...... Всегда вели себя достойно........ Не каждая женщина умеет так чтить память о муже........ Не судите........
Elvis was pretty much broke when he died. Priscilla built Graceland into an empire, saved Elvis' legacy, while raising a child and even found time to do some acting. That's a real woman.
It amazes me that she doesn't get so much more credit for that fact. Elvis Presley Enterprises, the company she founded, is worth 600 million dollars and Elvis is still one of the highest paid celebrities annually because of that. It was her idea to open Graceland to the public and her daughter gets every cent it brings in. In fact his daughter lives off the 15 percent ownership of Elvis Presley Enterprises versus her trust because pricillia was smart enough to leave 30 percent for herself and her daughter. She was the one who sued his manager and ended up buying him out before she started bringing the money in and that case helped pass a law where entertainers can't be taken advantage of by their managers. Smart woman. However I could be biased because I grew up watching her on Dallas so....
@@gp. It is when you consider the costs of everything, upkeep. It would not take long for that mil to dwindle away. You need to consider the business circumstances surrounding the situation.
@@erselley9017 in fact, to your point, how many celebrities who have passed away and had difficult endings have ended up falling into obscurity? Priscilla Presley did not have to keep his memory alive. She did divorce him; she could have taken the money and said nothing. But instead she keeps his memory alive and brings understanding to a difficult life, that he felt very trapped in.
One of the major reasons he was broke was that to pay Priscillas second divorce settlement, he had to sell the rights to his millions of hits. Then he had to live off just what he made by touring.
She rightly told him off for makin fun of Elvis, and with no hesitation. Although he probably didn't intend in that way, it shows in no uncertain way Priscilla's love and respect for Elvis,
Yes....That was completely disrespectful and was in such bad taste to do that right in front of her. This clown didn't deserve to have her on his show....then he fumbles around with an Elvis artifact which again this bumbling fool doesn't deserve to even be near. Just wow, making fun of Priscillas dead ex-husband for a laugh when right next to her just sickens me, what a piece of sh*t this guy is.
Man…Priscilla always looked intimidating to me, I had never seen an interview or anything of hers, this is the first time for me, she is totally the opposite of what I thought she would be. So sweet. ❤️
I was a huge Elvis fan as a little girl, but ended up becoming an even bigger Priscilla fan. She is truly incredible, and we should all be proud and thankful for the work she has done keeping Elvis alive. I also remember a highlight of my childhood seeing Priscilla on the cover of People Magazine's Most Beautiful People Alive issue.
I absolutely adore Priscilla. She’s so respectful and great for keeping Elvis’ memory alive and understanding why we want to know about him. She’s such a good woman for answering questions all the questions about him
I cant stand her. She is CARVING her way into that meditation garden as her legacy. Didnt you know in Elvis WILL, he stated that Pricilla is NEVER to use the Presley name nor profit from it? She has another child & lived with another man for over 25 years. Elvis did not want to marry her either but when you take a 14 year old up to your bedroom, your screwed. Thats why that relationship ended in a rape. The anger & betrayal was heavy. I never followed any other star, so over the many decades, I know a lot. I met some of the MM several times & had conservations with Patty Perry.
@@Somee989 Oh my God Somee. I don't think Elvis had the legal right in the divorce papers, as soe have said, or in the will, to tell Priscilla she could not use his name. I think that is a myth. OMG how can you believe her that Elvis raped her????? !!! That was just one more of her "poor little me" routines. Besides, asked about that scene in the movie on a talk show, the host said "did Elvis rape you" and she replied, no, I guess they put that in for drama"!! For the sake of drama, she let that movie go out depicting Elvis as a rapist. In her book, she just said he took her "roughly". She did not say that she ever said no to him or anything . She let it grow into full grown rape for the movie!
This is probably the most sincere and honest as I have ever seen her. She isn't guarded like she always was before. I don't blame her for being that way at all, but glad to see her this way.
I think the reason for that is the tension between Elvis's die hard fans and her. They believe this woman is Satan. I think she just takes the high road and never takes the bait. The woman was number 2 on Forbes smartest business women list because of Elvis Presley Enterprises yet she never speaks about that and I think it's because she knows she will leave herself open to be hit with things like living off of his talent. That talent did Elvis zero favors in the last ten years of his life and was regarded as an overweight singer who was painfully unaware that he lost what made him Elvis Presley and only toured to fund his love for quaaludes, young girls and bacon banana and peanut butter sandwiches. Just once I would love to see her say "You are correct that I take 15 percent but your lucky I don't take 70 after the way he treated me and if you keep this up I'm calling Lisa and telling her to lock the doors in Graceland. For good. I gave her 15 percent too so she will listen to me".
It's too bad that she did not nurture Elvis when he was alive the way she nurtures Graceland now to keep herself rich and famous. After she left him he just went downhill and died.
@@saphireblue3563 I’m sure their relationship was complicated and there were difficulties. You can’t blame her. She has kept his legacy alive. He made mistakes, too.
@@mnavo86 Yes I can blame her. She married him hiding the fact that she wanted to go into show business, stayed with him just long enough to get the best settlement, left him, got her settlement, and got herself a movie agent. She tried like crazy to get into show business but got no bites. She went around talking about how glad she was to be free of him, (she was living with Mike Stone with whom she had gone on tv declaring her love for while she was still married to Elvls). When Elvis died, she suddenly "loved" him again, started doing Elvis specials, Elvis interviews, TV Graceland tours, etc. which led to her getting her first show business job, Those Amazing Animals. She totally used Elvis, and now that he is dead she is still using him and she has literally made MILLIONS off him since he died.
I've admired Priscilla since I was a young 14 year old girl in 1968. She is one of the most beautiful women in the world inside and out. Elvis and Priscilla will always be a special memory for me. Thank you Priscilla for being a role model.
Mae West said this is the definition of subtraction: You meet a man and he has two thousand dollars. After you leave him he has two dollars. Priscilla's definition of a role model: Make rich man fall in love with you, marry him, wait until you can get a good settlement, leave him and get your money. Then become a big star your self by using his name for yourself. That's how you get rich and famous girls.
@@saphireblue3563 she was 14 when she first got with him. the definition of groomed. she's said she didn't even have a sense of identity until she was 27. how you could rally hatred against a child bride is disgusting. imagine if it was your 14 year old daughter involved with the biggest celebrity of all time
@@izzylk1802 She has completely brainwashed the public. She knew exactly what she wanted when she married him. She hid her show business ambitions from him, stayed with him just long enough to get the best divorce settlement, left him, got the money, then got herself a movie agent. She had a plan and she followed through with it. So the definition of groomed is when you meet a 14 year old? And what do you mean, "got with"? Sounds like you are implying something dirty or immoral. The definition of grooming is when a pedophile grooms a CHILD for sexual abuse. She was not a child and there was no sexual abuse.
We’d all look amazing if we had all that cosmetic surgery. She was such a natural beauty & something terribly weird happened to her mouth. But, she is still graceful, classy & beautiful.
@@OhHenry2024 it’s called aging she’s 77 nobody looks this good at nearly 80 she clearly had Botox to try prevent aging and with that causes some loss of motion but it’s worth it to not have a face full of wrinkles she looks so young
She does a good job , touring the world and still promoting Elvis. Divorced or not from Elvis , she is a excellent caretaker of Graceland. And is directly responsible for the millions that EPE brings in each year. Thank you Pricilla for getting Elvis exposure for us to watch and hear.
@@taoist32 Lisa Marie inherited $1 billion in 1993 when she turned 25. However, Lisa Marie only had the rights to Elvis' names and only 10% of the music rights. RCA/Sony owns 90% of Elvis Presley's music rights to this day. According to the Wall Street Journal, Lisa Marie lost billions of dollars as a result.
It’s amazing how soft spoken, poise and feminine she is, but Priscilla has such a silent and powerful presence. When she speaks, I can feel the space in her voice. This woman has seen some things. She experienced something that not many people can relate to.
She’s so pretty. Looks so young. Loved her on Dallas. Priscilla has always been so generous and gracious to Elvis’s fans. It really is because of her that his home and memory and legacy are preserved as they have been.
She's so beautiful. I realize she's there to promote the cd and exhibition but he should have asked her questions about her causes which are admirable. A talented, giving, hardworking entrepreneur and animal advocate.
Animal advocate? She has all that land and all I have heard she took in were two horses. She was a vegetarian for awhile but when she met Micheal Andrews(I think that's the wrong name but most will know who I mean) she went back to eating meat and went to a bullfight with him. Phony goodness just like everything else about her.
Priscilla is almost 80. She looks fantastic. Yes, she has had work done, but there's other ways she still looks so youthful, her voice is not of an old lady, her legs looks great, she still has great hair, most 80 year old don't have that fullness, she's in great overall shape.
I took my sons to Graceland two years ago. They were 1 and 3. It was my first time. & It was the first place we went after moving back to Tennessee from California. My kids have seen more than I have in 34 years. Long live Elvis.
Yeah, and she deserves better than Elvis Presley who basically was a paedophile and groomed her from the age of 14 to be his sex slave, then emotionally and sexually abandoned her the moment she had his child. She has chosen to see the good things for the sake of her children and their inheritance, but make it no mistake, she was a victim of sexual abuse by amor powerful man.
Someone said Priscilla was the literal embodiment of the song 'Young and Beautiful' by Lana Del Ray and I have never heard anything more true. Like the song, she seems very elegant, beautiful and a tiny bit sorrowful.
I really like Priscilla, she is such a sweet woman and deserve so much more credit then people give her, it wasn’t a easy life she had with a man who cheated all the time, nobody should blame her that she left, she have always love him.
She’s so sweet! It angers me when people make fun of her plastic surgery but she’s extremely elderly and I actually think she looks beautiful on the show classy and graceful
Omg EXTREMELY is a harsh word! She looks good , if anyone feels they look better with plastic surgery then why should anyone insult or make fun of them? She looks beautiful and is very normal ,she doesn’t act or talk like she’s above anyone, very down to earth.
She went to a dr who injected toxic silicone in her face back in the 1999s. It was a big scandel because he did it to many others. She had to get it cut out and get reconstructive surgery. So she is very lucky to look this good. Back in the day she had huge scars
No ma’m, she did it FOR the money. Nearly FIFTY YEARS AFTER HIS DEATH, Elvis’s money has supported EVERY boyfriend, every husband and every child Pricilla EVER had, AFTER HIM, it is Elvis’s money that has SUPPORTED every husband, every boyfriend, every child and EVEN every EXTENDED family member connected to Lisa Marie. The ONLY grandchild who resembled Elvis, was her late son. He was the spitting image of The King. Elvis died five yrs after Pricilla left him and two days after the 20th Anniversary of his mother’s death. She left him for his judo instructor, Mike Wood. I guess EVERYONE has forgotten this. Except for his hard-core Elvis fans. One last thing, EXACTLY why do you think she kept the PRESLEY name ?? Elvis was raised his daughter…..himself and she was with him till the day he Passed. Why do you think Pricilla and Lisa Marie have OBVIOUSLY never gotten along ??? LONG LIVE OUR KING !!!!
@@izzylk1802 He was a naive immature young man, VERY disgusting were HER Parents allow her go out at night to meet a grown man, whoever he could be. I am 70 today and when I was 14th my parents never would allow me go out at night, no matter if Elvis or the Prince of England! Not even with boys my age. So afterwards why blame Elvis ONLY? It is clear those three had a goal on him! It's time to stop to pity that snake!
She’s always so elegant. Loved that she and the whole family support the movie ELVIS. It’s like a reborn with this movie, the discovery of new songs, the memories of the old songs that we love so much, and add to this new fans. With this movie I think we knew a little more about the human being, a lovely and wonderful man.
I feel like no matter how much time passes, Priscilla could never be thanked and appreciated enough for all she’s done to build and protect Elvis’ legacy. What a remarkable, gorgeous special lady she is and I love how protective and proud she still seems to be of Elvis and their life together. My heart also breaks for her right now with the heartbreaking passing of sweet Lisa Marie…I pray God’s continued protection and strength upon her and may Lisa Marie rest in heavenly peace ❤
This interview is years old. She's not really doing any interviews anymore. She made a rare appearance at the Cannes Film Festival last month because Baz invited her after seeing the new movie and loved it.

I totally agree - thought the interviewer was flippantly disrespectful of Elvis " memory - he came off looking like a total fool as did the guy next to her dropping the F 💣 bomb - no idea of basic manners
She carried on elvis legacy with a lot of class. What she did with Graceland was genius and i love how she kept the upstairs of the house and where elvis died private and off limits to the public.
Anyone else here after watching the movie? 😢 She is just so sweet and stunning. When she was pretending to drink from the mug, her eyes! My God her eyes. I also remember her being in a Naked Gun movie, and her eyes. Just so stunning.
It must be difficult enough to feel that anyone you interact with wants something from you. A piece of you. It must be worse yet to feel everyone you interact with wants to use you as little more than a conduit to someone else. Incredibly sad… and it explains so many memories I have of her. She handled everything FAR better than I think I would have.
Are you acting as though she didn’t get everything on a silver platter from Elvis and never had to work a day in his life? He gave her most of the things she wanted, even a child, and then she divorces him all because she “lived her life in a bubble” what a load of rubbish that is. The people you are depicting and the things you’re describing are what she did herself. It’s what her parents wanted too.

Oh My Goodness! I hope Jonathan had a heartfelt conversation with Mz. Presley before her segment because his questions were pressing and heartfelt. I hope she knew what was coming.

Elvis Presley I remember August 16, 1977. Forever engraved in my mind, in my soul. I received one of the worst, physically shaking, ass beatings of my pre-teen life. I was walking through the boys room at the back of the house, passing by the television set. It was at eye level. As I glance at it on my right, in passing, a royal blue screen with white letters flashes on, just cuts in. It read ELVIS PRESLEY DIES. I had to read it twice and then a panicked reality set in. I knew my dad and brother were just outside working on the family station wagon, a powder blue, Ford Country Squire. I ran out the back door, yelling loudly that “Elvis Presley died!”. I stood just beyond the back porch, screaming until I heard tools clanging and then feet scrambling towards me. I hurriedly moved back indoors and waited by the television set. I heard feet stomping in full gallop, headed toward the rear entrance of the house. The door swung open and both my dad and oldest brother rushed in and stood next to me, huffing and puffing, breathing very heavily as we all gazed at the television. We waited what seemed an eternity and no breaking news report came on. No mention of Elvis’ passing. It was then that I was taken by surprise. My dad somehow whirled me around and had grabbed my left upper arm with his left hand and was behind me as he delivered a full handed, bone shattering, neck cracking spanking. He was a 6 foot, physically fit man. I was 12 years old. Through the whole soul shattering ordeal, I heard him furiously yell at me never to lie again. I remember crying and yelping like an injured puppy as it was happening. I didn’t understand what had just occurred. When I felt free of his grasp, I ran in desperation and wound up in the bathroom. I locked the door. Crying and screaming, I slumped to the ground and hugged my knees not knowing what to do. Eventually, I heard my mom begging me to come out. All I could say between injured feelings and streaming tears was a loud, angry NO! NO!!! I don’t know how much time passed before I heard my dad’s sheepish, low, guilty voice saying he was sorry as he also lightly knocked on the door. Please unlock the door. The answer remained an emphatic, definite, NO! I was not unlocking the door. Still on the floor, I hugged my knees tighter and eventually fell asleep. I woke up in my bed later that evening, no idea how they retrieved me. I must have passed out in disbelief and dismay. I don’t recall having dinner or anything. Time passed and all eventually was forgiven. My dad was a good, hardworking man. To this day I remember the very moment that the King of Rock n Roll died because my dad was one of his biggest, admiring fans. If an Elvis movie or show rerun was on the tube, we all certainly were watching. Elvis was a big presence in our household, as was everything Disney. In his youth, my father had aspirations of being an entertainer. He sang and played guitar in a quartet in his latter teens and early twenties. He played both the guitar and piano by ear. He usually played the guitar in the evenings and weekends and could be heard singing something. I only learned and realized the extent of my dad’s admiration and fanaticism for Elvis Presley after revisiting my literal, butt hurt, childhood incident as an adult. I understood why we watched every Elvis movie and show when they aired on tv. It was a family night around the big, console TV set in the living room, popcorn and the whole shebanger, just like the annual airing of The Wizard of Oz, a special occasion. I miss family life. I miss my dad and my mom, everyday! And to this day, Elvis still is The King of Rock n Roll, never to be forgotten by my heart and soul, and my butt! JMatt4LIFE 05/27/2022 12:57 pm

For all its worth.. Priscilla was a child bride growing up in another era where marrying young was not abnormal. She spent part of her teen years living with Elvis and his family and became part of the Presley family before officially marrying him. A lot of her growing up was mentored by the Presleys. Also Elvis who was directing her life to a large degree. It's understanding that his lifestyle became hers living in his household. He was no saint as some prefer to see him. He was simply still sowing his oats and having his cake and eating it too. Priscilla was his love but he was on the merry go round of celebrity much of the time. Graceland was THEIR home. Yes, Priscilla's home too. It's perfect lyrics logical that she was attached to the memories and life they lived on the grounds of Graceland. She has Lisa, the child they both dearly loved while the happy times lasted. Priscilla was young, but controlled by Elvis. Totally understandable that she felt like a bird in a gilded cage. Graceland was and always will be HOME they all shared. Vernon, Granny, and all the Presley Clan called Graceland home. Elvis 'home. He shared his home and success with his close family.
Regardless of the legal "divorce " feelings don't easily divorce and they shared a sacred bond of many years in the making. Priscilla was Elvis protégé. A most unusual story for most to absorb. But true love lives on outside the gates of Graceland, and for whatever flaws Priscilla may hsve, like we all humans have, there was deep love and respect between the Presleys. She grew up. Simply, she wanted to be herself. Elvis was living his life. She was a bird in a cage.in the final analysis, it's nobody's business but their own. Choosing to make it public in bits and pieces has served Priscilla well financially. Lisa was not old enough to handle her inheritance. Vernon passed away. Priscilla was the logical person in the succession of what to do with Graceland and also the lucrative legacy of Elvis. Good for her that she was blessed with good people to help and guide her. The Colonel Tom Parker had his claws in Elvis long enough. Good for Priscilla that she still is sentimental lyrics attached to her home and smart enough to retain the cash cow it has evolved into. Priscilla is starting to show her age regardless of the mask of cosmetic surgery. Under all that make up beats the heart of a mother, grandmothet, and former child bride who like everyone will not live forevet. Elvis was a cherished and outstanding man and talent but he was not a god. With changing times this too shall pass away. Graceland will become a past memory and the legendary Elvis, in time, will as well. I the meantime, good job, Priscilla.
@@madinareaume3373 right! Many a young girl in past decades saw getting married as a ticket from out of their parents control. There were bibles and a more puritanical set of life values back then that guided society for most families. There was a mom and dad family structure where even in bad situations the parents held a place of respect and legal guardianship over their minor children. Of course there have always been rebellious children who thought they knew it all and when boy met girl, the hormones kicking,defied their parents wisdom and got into troublesome marriages too young and immature to last. And on the flip side some young marriages lasted a lifetime. What many people today fail to understand is using today's set of values (or lack of) to judge yesterday's. The thread of decent behavior and respectable behavior in place back in the 50s didn't allow for long hair on men, much bless all that wiggling and shaking in public by some young musician riling up all those young girls. Guys wore their hair neatly barbered and crew cuts ruled way into the 60s. It was a part of the culture to be neatly groomed. Elvis was his own fashion statement.. that in itself is wild. Young teens often "went steady " and sweethearts slowly planned for future marriages. Often guys went into the military while the sweetheart girls waited for a future marriage date. Not unlike Priscilla who was legally a minor for whom her parents were responsible until legal age. Which age also varied depending which state it was. Coincidently, yesterday a story came out that the FB I has just partially made. available to the public some of their records on Elvis previously sealed (NOW WE ASK, WHY were his records ever kept and sealed all these years? If it's to be believed, the article states that a hairdresser of Elvis had threatened to expose his love affair with underage Priscilla when all this was occuring. And zip, soon after there's a rushed marriage. People can draw their own conclusions . WITH Parent's consent, Priscilla, underage of majority, could have married Elvis had he wanted to BEFORE they finally wed. AGAIN, draw your own conclusions. Different world back then, and in many ways a lot better.
You can't call her child bride as she married as an adult. But shr def was groomed. Today I saw her vogue photo video and she always made sure she was perfect for him like a barbie doll and never looked unstylish. She always wanted amaze him not the other way around
@@Angelaius different world back then. People dressed up. She had to compete with Hollywood starlets who Elvis worked with and he had a public image to uphold. That he wanted his young wife to look glamorous was not exactly grooming although enhancing her natural good looks. Priscilla had heavy duty competition to try to keep Elvis from women constantly throwing themselves at him. Priscilla grew up being groomed to the extent that Elvis tried to mold her into a woman as she grew from the young teenager in his life for quite a number of years. This is not unusual at all and not a bad thing . It appeared more like passing on what he was seeing being involved in making nonstop movies with nonstop pretty women. At any rate, their life was what it was under their circumstances and Priscilla Beaulieu became a princess and his special love. Can't fault a girl who couldn't help falling in love. God bless her.
Personally... I love her Enthusiasm as it is clearly a very touching subject meaning, she is struggling to put into words that none of us will ever know, she cant answer the perfect question. For me, she is golden, a down toearth, honest and genuine strong women who clearly loved a forever unforgettable legend. Much love!x
So much respect for Priscilla. Of course,she is always going to be thought of when Elvis is mentioned. Her and Lisa both will be thought of along with him.
Elvis was great before he met Priscilla. I can understand why she eventually wanted out of the marriage, Elvis was cheating and he kept Priscilla locked up in Graceland. Elvis was very controlling. Without Priscilla, Graceland would've been sold to the highest bidder. Priscilla has worked tirelessly to preserve Elvis' legacy which has brought him fans of all ages from all over the world. Even though the marriage didn't work, Elvis and Priscilla genuinely liked each other and shared a child together. Priscilla has every right to maintain Elvis' legacy for his fans and Lisa Marie. Priscilla has done an outstanding job and if it entails making money, that's great. It's better the money goes to Elvis' family.
She had a Dr. that injected her face something ment to go in cars. He was prosocuted, he was not licensed fake Dr. almost ruined her face, she has had alot more treatments trying to undo what he did.
She is a classy lady. Truthfully. The king of Rock and Roll was more than these woman. They wouldn't be without him. Elvis was a man that had gift from above. The looks, that voice, his charm brought a light that will always live alone through his music.
I often wonder how it is she truly feels inside. I can’t help but to notice a grate big sadness in her eyes , she has been carrying this sadness in her for such a long long time already 🥹
Priscilla Presley is Elvis one true love. She looks beautiful & graceful till today.No wonder Elvis fell for her.! Thank you for keeping Graceland open for fans of the King.
I think the issue Priscilla has about the Estate Trust is all about making sure Elvis’s legacy is handled well ~ Not about wanting money. She reacted so quickly and decisively to maintain some control because - I sense - she is devoted to making sure Graceland and Elvis’ legacy will be beautifully preserved.
I'm sorry but I find Johnathan Ross pretty rude and disrespectful in this interview. He literally made fun of Elvis' lip, Proceeded to interrupt Priscilla then mishandling the belt??. Wow dude!!!
I agree , also not handling the belt respectfully and then the cockney geezer (can’t remember his name) swearing the f***** in front of her. Terrible !
“Please don’t do that..” softly, with class, but she meant it fully... love the respect. also love that he was very understanding :)

She still has sparkles in her eyes when she talks about him --- and always such tenderness and respect towards him in her voice
It's just the lights
@@nataliegian does not change the fact that she does speak highly of Elvis
It's pretty pathetic, really. Her marriage to Elvis was so short-lived (6 years) when she was quite young, you'd think he would be no more than a small blip in her life, especially since she had to raise her daughter on her own. From what I've heard, even from her, Elvis was kind of a controlling jerk, so I think she probably speaks well about EVERYONE. It's just her manner of communicating. She hasn't had to work or accomplished anything in her entire life, and she's been pretty sheltered. It's easier to remain genteel when you've had no life challenges.
@@charmingjinx9379 not sure how you can say in one sentence that she raised her child alone. And then say she didn't have any life challenges. Wow. Lol

I must say after all these years she expresses love by how respectfully she speaks about him.
so true. Just like Christopher Reeve's wife. Some wives are just very awesome. My mother was one.
@@brettcantrell8650 Isn't Christopher Reeve's wife dead?
Yes his legacy lives on, but I rarely see where Pricilla acknowledges his legacy stemmed from him getting his inspiration from African American music! Yes she is finally saying this 40 to 50 years later and of course after all those checks have been deposited to the banks! Elvis was just another modern day master of a plantation at his time, he just didn't beat his slaves he just stole their music, style , mannerism, etc. Yes, he bought his black made a house, but that was after she had given all of her youth too him! I'm not saying the man raped , but I will say he pillage and plundered the black musicians who sand soul, jazz, blues and yes even country music! Pricilla pretends he had good black friends, but their are no stories of said black friends visiting Elvis at his house or eating and sleeping at his house. If she had that she would've have produced it now to debunk the stories about him! I'm not saying he was a racist, but he was definately a cultural appropriator. Show me a tape where Elvis performed music for black and white people together. But my grandparents saw him when he was in juke joints and always trying to assimilate with black people , then days later he was on the rode singing original songs they wrote and singing like that was his own music etc. Elvis today would be a moder day Tom Jones or Vanilla Ice!
@@mybiz2167 Sadly, Mrs Reeves did pass away. I read that she died of lung cancer and didn't even smoke. Apparently she was exposed to secondhand smoke all her life by being a singer and growing up performing in places with smokers. Second hand smoke, is no joke. BTW, I'm Not judging smokers by any means. I just thought I would say what happened to his Mrs Reeves.
I find it quite moving when she speaks about Elvis. She obviously loves him a great deal . She’s a lovely, beautiful lady.
She is so classy, and presents herself (and Elvis) in such a beautiful way. You can tell she does NOT play around about anyone trying to misconstrue Elvis' name; this video literally brought tears to my eyes. Despite any personal things that they went through, you can just tell how much she respects him and his image, and you can feel the love she had for him through any interview you could ever find of her. I already know he has to be looking down at her now knowing he picked such a good woman. I truly hope she knows how much that not only he, but all of the people that love him, love her.
I feel bad for her, when he was intimate with other women while on tour. Also she felt so much pain because of all the pills he was taking. So difficult.
Pricilla is a trip. If youve been around long enough, you can see through her agenda. ITS CASH BABY.
Are you kidding? People said and wrote vicious lies about Elvis and she was the only one who could sue for him but she refused. She was one of the producers for Elvis and Me, and let it go out depicting Elvis as a rapist. She could not care less about his name, except as if effects her.
@@Somee989 r u stupid?? Elvis was near broke when he passed and she salvaged everything

Plastic surgery. Lots of it.
Actually, her face was SO damaged with all that plastic surgery, that WHENEVER she smiles or giggles, ALWAYS she looks down, because her face resembles The Joker from Batman. Sad, but VERY true. Just watch when EVER she smiles, or tries to, the VERY first thing she does, is to LOWER lower her face or to look COMPLETELY down. Very unattractive!!

She remarried and has another child she keeps totally out of sight. When she left, she was having an affair.

@@EOC-vj4yy Elvis ruined his own life,no one else can ruin your life but you!
I’m here after hearing about Lisa Marie. How devastating. I feel terrible. Priscilla has had so much loss in her life. Prayers to her and her granddaughters.
First time i watched an interview with her. She is so soft spoken. class, elegance. her hair looks amazing. Love her eyes. like she is just a stunning person.
She deserves a tremendous amount of respect, not only for who she is and and an integral part of the legacy of Elvis, but her protecting that legacy all these years and her patience and tolerance of fans and media. It was such an honor to have Priscilla share the International Hotel Award Buckle and belt on the show-WOW!
Priscilla has wisely marketed the Graceland, Elvis brand and that has been hard work all these years. She cares about Elvis’ fans and it is SO commendable.
she did it for money.
@bwana-ma-coo-bah, she was onto the gold digger aspect of being with Elvis at 15 years of age, dear. Lol
No one should glamorize this she was 14 years old bruh think about it a 24 year old was fucking a preteen that’s disgusting
first of all she met Elvis a that age. She went to his house when almost 18th. Has been her to stalk Elvis to call her parent for let her go to Graceland, then nobody forced her to stay there she could back to her family!!! It's time to stop once and for all to pity her: "poor she was so young!" She (supported by her parents), did it because she had a goal, and follow it until she obtained what she wanted, so she is to blame as much as Elvis. That's all!!
@@danielacolnaghi7739 no. Read Priscilla’s OWN book. She was going to a Catholic girl’s high school while LIVING at Graceland. No18 yr old girl is doing that. But I agree Priscilla wanted Elvis and the prestige and the money. She knew exactly what she was doing and her parents really blew it letting their underage daughter do it.
They still loved each other. Elvis wanted to get back together and Priscilla told him that he needed to stop seeing other women. To this day, she keeps his memory alive. She is an incredibly classy woman. Thank you for posting this!!!
Just to make the facts clear: Elvis didn't want a divorce but she preferred to discover the world with another guy at that time. It was indeed a couple where both partners were unfaithful but managed their divorce better than their marriage.
Не надо все переворачивать. Элвис Пресли ещё до брака говорил Присцилле, что не может заниматься сексом с женщиной, которая родила ребёнка. Поэтому у него были измены жене вскоре после родов. Когда Присцилла была на 7 месяце беременности, Элвис сказал жене: "Может нам отдохнуть друг от друга?" Так что Присцилла просто вынуждена была увлечься другим мужчиной. Иначе она просто сидела бы дома и ждала Элвиса. А Элвис развлекался с другими женщинами. Правильно ли сделала Присцилла? Трудно сказать. Это было её решение. Наверное, Элвис хотел, чтобы она была заменой его любимой матери. Жаль, конечно. Если бы она не ушла, он бы ещё пожил. Он умер от одиночества. Он был к ней привязан. А бабы все разбежались.
@@luciedetant1095 FALSE. Elvis never cheated on Priscilla. She never cheated on Elvis either.
Надо уважать и ценить таланты на нашей земле....... Элвис и Присцилла создали семью , родили ребёнка...... Всегда вели себя достойно........ Не каждая женщина умеет так чтить память о муже........ Не судите........
Elvis was pretty much broke when he died. Priscilla built Graceland into an empire, saved Elvis' legacy, while raising a child and even found time to do some acting. That's a real woman.
It amazes me that she doesn't get so much more credit for that fact. Elvis Presley Enterprises, the company she founded, is worth 600 million dollars and Elvis is still one of the highest paid celebrities annually because of that. It was her idea to open Graceland to the public and her daughter gets every cent it brings in. In fact his daughter lives off the 15 percent ownership of Elvis Presley Enterprises versus her trust because pricillia was smart enough to leave 30 percent for herself and her daughter. She was the one who sued his manager and ended up buying him out before she started bringing the money in and that case helped pass a law where entertainers can't be taken advantage of by their managers. Smart woman. However I could be biased because I grew up watching her on Dallas so....
I saw you somewhere else🤔
@@gp. It is when you consider the costs of everything, upkeep. It would not take long for that mil to dwindle away. You need to consider the business circumstances surrounding the situation.
@@erselley9017 in fact, to your point, how many celebrities who have passed away and had difficult endings have ended up falling into obscurity? Priscilla Presley did not have to keep his memory alive. She did divorce him; she could have taken the money and said nothing. But instead she keeps his memory alive and brings understanding to a difficult life, that he felt very trapped in.
One of the major reasons he was broke was that to pay Priscillas second divorce settlement, he had to sell the rights to his millions of hits. Then he had to live off just what he made by touring.
Good for her to say Please Don't Do That. I love it.
And, "Please don't do that in front of anyone.". Lol!

I was a huge Elvis fan as a little girl, but ended up becoming an even bigger Priscilla fan. She is truly incredible, and we should all be proud and thankful for the work she has done keeping Elvis alive.
I also remember a highlight of my childhood seeing Priscilla on the cover of People Magazine's Most Beautiful People Alive issue.
She gas always spoken so highly of him. Actually everyone I've ever heard interviewed has spoken so well of him❤
I absolutely adore Priscilla. She’s so respectful and great for keeping Elvis’ memory alive and understanding why we want to know about him. She’s such a good woman for answering questions all the questions about him
Yes Priscilla is a classy lady who to this day speaks so respectfully of Elvis. He is in her heart forever. God Bless them both.🎶🎶❤️❤️
I cant stand her. She is CARVING her way into that meditation garden as her legacy. Didnt you know in Elvis WILL, he stated that Pricilla is NEVER to use the Presley name nor profit from it? She has another child & lived with another man for over 25 years. Elvis did not want to marry her either but when you take a 14 year old up to your bedroom, your screwed. Thats why that relationship ended in a rape. The anger & betrayal was heavy. I never followed any other star, so over the many decades, I know a lot. I met some of the MM several times & had conservations with Patty Perry.
@@Somee989 Oh my God Somee. I don't think Elvis had the legal right in the divorce papers, as soe have said, or in the will, to tell Priscilla she could not use his name. I think that is a myth. OMG how can you believe her that Elvis raped her????? !!! That was just one more of her "poor little me" routines. Besides, asked about that scene in the movie on a talk show, the host said "did Elvis rape you" and she replied, no, I guess they put that in for drama"!! For the sake of drama, she let that movie go out depicting Elvis as a rapist. In her book, she just said he took her "roughly". She did not say that she ever said no to him or anything . She let it grow into full grown rape for the movie!
@@Somee989100%...I can't stand her either...she's digging gold off her Dead EX HUSBAND and his Name...she disgusts me
This is probably the most sincere and honest as I have ever seen her. She isn't guarded like she always was before. I don't blame her for being that way at all, but glad to see her this way.
I think the reason for that is the tension between Elvis's die hard fans and her. They believe this woman is Satan. I think she just takes the high road and never takes the bait. The woman was number 2 on Forbes smartest business women list because of Elvis Presley Enterprises yet she never speaks about that and I think it's because she knows she will leave herself open to be hit with things like living off of his talent. That talent did Elvis zero favors in the last ten years of his life and was regarded as an overweight singer who was painfully unaware that he lost what made him Elvis Presley and only toured to fund his love for quaaludes, young girls and bacon banana and peanut butter sandwiches. Just once I would love to see her say "You are correct that I take 15 percent but your lucky I don't take 70 after the way he treated me and if you keep this up I'm calling Lisa and telling her to lock the doors in Graceland. For good. I gave her 15 percent too so she will listen to me".
Wow are you blinded
She's doing a great job keeping Elvis' legacy alive after all these decades. Can't wait to see the new Elvis biopic coming out in June 2022.
It's too bad that she did not nurture Elvis when he was alive the way she nurtures Graceland now to keep herself rich and famous. After she left him he just went downhill and died.

She went around talking about how glad she was to be free of him, (she was living with Mike Stone with whom she had gone on tv declaring her love for while she was still married to Elvls). When Elvis died, she suddenly "loved" him again, started doing Elvis specials, Elvis interviews, TV Graceland tours, etc. which led to her getting her first show business job, Those Amazing Animals. She totally used Elvis, and now that he is dead she is still using him and she has literally made MILLIONS off him since he died.

Sorry but she's succumbed to the Hollywood sheep mentality and unfortunately had cosmetic surgery grow old gracefully
Mae West said this is the definition of subtraction: You meet a man and he has two thousand dollars. After you leave him he has two dollars.
Priscilla's definition of a role model: Make rich man fall in love with you, marry him, wait until you can get a good settlement, leave him and get your money. Then become a big star your self by using his name for yourself. That's how you get rich and famous girls.
@@saphireblue3563 she was 14 when she first got with him. the definition of groomed. she's said she didn't even have a sense of identity until she was 27. how you could rally hatred against a child bride is disgusting. imagine if it was your 14 year old daughter involved with the biggest celebrity of all time

She had a plan and she followed through with it.
So the definition of groomed is when you meet a 14 year old? And what do you mean, "got with"? Sounds like you are implying something dirty or immoral.
The definition of grooming is when a pedophile grooms a CHILD for sexual abuse. She was not a child and there was no sexual abuse.

She does a good job , touring the world and still promoting Elvis. Divorced or not from Elvis , she is a excellent caretaker of Graceland. And is directly responsible for the millions that EPE brings in each year. Thank you Pricilla for getting Elvis exposure for us to watch and hear.
Without her, Lisa would not have had such a huge inheritance, $100 million at least.
We appreciate her but must admit if it weren't for Elvis being the fantastic and lovely man he
was she would have nothing now 🌹🌹

It’s amazing how soft spoken, poise and feminine she is, but Priscilla has such a silent and powerful presence. When she speaks, I can feel the space in her voice. This woman has seen some things. She experienced something that not many people can relate to.
Such a polite, stunning woman, so much class after all these years
She’s so pretty. Looks so young. Loved her on Dallas. Priscilla has always been so generous and gracious to Elvis’s fans. It really is because of her that his home and memory and legacy are preserved as they have been.
Lisa Marie looks so much like Elvis. When she performs singing she had a beautiful voice and her dancing moves amazing just like Elvis. Its amazing:)

Animal advocate? She has all that land and all I have heard she took in were two horses. She was a vegetarian for awhile but when she met Micheal Andrews(I think that's the wrong name but most will know who I mean) she went back to eating meat and went to a bullfight with him.

Priscilla is almost 80. She looks fantastic. Yes, she has had work done, but there's other ways she still looks so youthful, her voice is not of an old lady, her legs looks great, she still has great hair, most 80 year old don't have that fullness, she's in great overall shape.
@La it doesn’t matter it still looks good.
its called BAD botox and LOTS of plastic surgery just like the rest of Hollywood.
I took my sons to Graceland two years ago. They were 1 and 3. It was my first time. & It was the first place we went after moving back to Tennessee from California. My kids have seen more than I have in 34 years. Long live Elvis.
What a beautiful and gracious person she is. Such a genuinely lovely person with a kind heart and a good sense of humour
Yeah, and she deserves better than Elvis Presley who basically was a paedophile and groomed her from the age of 14 to be his sex slave, then emotionally and sexually abandoned her the moment she had his child. She has chosen to see the good things for the sake of her children and their inheritance, but make it no mistake, she was a victim of sexual abuse by amor powerful man.
Shame about the surgery tho
All that money and couldn't track a decent P surgeon!!
She has beautiful hair & gorgeous eyes. She’s always looked great to me.
Someone said Priscilla was the literal embodiment of the song 'Young and Beautiful' by Lana Del Ray and I have never heard anything more true. Like the song, she seems very elegant, beautiful and a tiny bit sorrowful.
I really like Priscilla, she is such a sweet woman and deserve so much more credit then people give her, it wasn’t a easy life she had with a man who cheated all the time, nobody should blame her that she left, she have always love him.

What do you call EXTREMELY elderly? I’d say over 90 maybe, not 77.
Omg EXTREMELY is a harsh word! She looks good , if anyone feels they look better with plastic surgery then why should anyone insult or make fun of them? She looks beautiful and is very normal ,she doesn’t act or talk like she’s above anyone, very down to earth.
@@nanapam1267 extremely..I’m dead 🤣😂
She is elderly. Maybe not "extremely", but has been for a while, and that is what OP meant.
She went to a dr who injected toxic silicone in her face back in the 1999s. It was a big scandel because he did it to many others. She had to get it cut out and get reconstructive surgery. So she is very lucky to look this good. Back in the day she had huge scars
I love Priscilla and what she had done and maintained since Elvis's passing. Go Girl!
I love Priscilla she is wonderful she always honor’s Elvis’s life I love that about her. ♥️
No ma’m, she did it FOR the money. Nearly FIFTY YEARS AFTER HIS DEATH, Elvis’s money has supported EVERY boyfriend, every husband and every child Pricilla EVER had, AFTER HIM, it is Elvis’s money that has SUPPORTED every husband, every boyfriend, every child and EVEN every EXTENDED family member connected to Lisa Marie. The ONLY grandchild who resembled Elvis, was her late son. He was the spitting image of The King. Elvis died five yrs after Pricilla left him and two days after the 20th Anniversary of his mother’s death. She left him for his judo instructor, Mike Wood. I guess EVERYONE has forgotten this. Except for his hard-core Elvis fans. One last thing, EXACTLY why do you think she kept the PRESLEY name ?? Elvis was raised his daughter…..himself and she was with him till the day he Passed. Why do you think Pricilla and Lisa Marie have OBVIOUSLY never gotten along ???

With this movie I think we knew a little more about the human being, a lovely and wonderful man.

What a remarkable, gorgeous special lady she is and I love how protective and proud she still seems to be of Elvis and their life together. My heart also breaks for her right now with the heartbreaking passing of sweet Lisa Marie…I pray God’s continued protection and strength upon her and may Lisa Marie rest in heavenly peace ❤

I definitely feel that Priscilla was meant to marry Elvis, I mean the alliteration just flows so beautifully, ‘Priscilla Presley’ 😆
I love that she said "please don't do that" when he kinda mocked Elvis. Setting healthy boundaries.
I can see that why Elvis loved her. She's so gentle and beautiful.
It must be difficult enough to feel that anyone you interact with wants something from you. A piece of you. It must be worse yet to feel everyone you interact with wants to use you as little more than a conduit to someone else. Incredibly sad… and it explains so many memories I have of her. She handled everything FAR better than I think I would have.
Must be difficult to start dating and then marry a pedophile with a way overrated voice, he was no Tom Jones
Are you acting as though she didn’t get everything on a silver platter from Elvis and never had to work a day in his life? He gave her most of the things she wanted, even a child, and then she divorces him all because she “lived her life in a bubble” what a load of rubbish that is. The people you are depicting and the things you’re describing are what she did herself. It’s what her parents wanted too.

Elvis Presley
I remember August 16, 1977.
Forever engraved in my mind, in my soul.
I received one of the worst, physically shaking, ass beatings of my pre-teen life.
I was walking through the boys room at the back of the house, passing by the television set.
It was at eye level.
As I glance at it on my right, in passing, a royal blue screen with white letters flashes on, just cuts in.
It read ELVIS PRESLEY DIES.
I had to read it twice and then a panicked reality set in.
I knew my dad and brother were just outside working on the family station wagon, a powder blue, Ford Country Squire.
I ran out the back door, yelling loudly that “Elvis Presley died!”.
I stood just beyond the back porch, screaming until I heard tools clanging and then feet scrambling towards me.
I hurriedly moved back indoors and waited by the television set.
I heard feet stomping in full gallop, headed toward the rear entrance of the house.
The door swung open and both my dad and oldest brother rushed in and stood next to me, huffing and puffing, breathing very heavily as we all gazed at the television.
We waited what seemed an eternity and no breaking news report came on.
No mention of Elvis’ passing.
It was then that I was taken by surprise.
My dad somehow whirled me around and had grabbed my left upper arm with his left hand and was behind me as he delivered a full handed, bone shattering, neck cracking spanking.
He was a 6 foot, physically fit man.
I was 12 years old.
Through the whole soul shattering ordeal, I heard him furiously yell at me never to lie again.
I remember crying and yelping like an injured puppy as it was happening.
I didn’t understand what had just occurred.
When I felt free of his grasp, I ran in desperation and wound up in the bathroom.
I locked the door.
Crying and screaming, I slumped to the ground and hugged my knees not knowing what to do.
Eventually, I heard my mom begging me to come out.
All I could say between injured feelings and streaming tears was a loud, angry NO!
NO!!!
I don’t know how much time passed before I heard my dad’s sheepish, low, guilty voice saying he was sorry as he also lightly knocked on the door.
Please unlock the door.
The answer remained an emphatic, definite, NO!
I was not unlocking the door.
Still on the floor, I hugged my knees tighter and eventually fell asleep.
I woke up in my bed later that evening, no idea how they retrieved me.
I must have passed out in disbelief and dismay.
I don’t recall having dinner or anything.
Time passed and all eventually was forgiven.
My dad was a good, hardworking man.
To this day I remember the very moment that the King of Rock n Roll died because my dad was one of his biggest, admiring fans.
If an Elvis movie or show rerun was on the tube, we all certainly were watching.
Elvis was a big presence in our household, as was everything Disney.
In his youth, my father had aspirations of being an entertainer.
He sang and played guitar in a quartet in his latter teens and early twenties.
He played both the guitar and piano by ear.
He usually played the guitar in the evenings and weekends and could be heard singing something.
I only learned and realized the extent of my dad’s admiration and fanaticism for Elvis Presley after revisiting my literal, butt hurt, childhood incident as an adult.
I understood why we watched every Elvis movie and show when they aired on tv.
It was a family night around the big, console TV set in the living room, popcorn and the whole shebanger, just like the annual airing of The Wizard of Oz, a special occasion.
I miss family life.
I miss my dad and my mom, everyday!
And to this day, Elvis still is The King of Rock n Roll, never to be forgotten by my heart and soul, and my butt!

@@saphireblue3563 I agree w/ u ! & Elvis stayed friends w/ her 4 their Daughter, Lisa. Marie ! HMM UGH!!
@@saphireblue3563 she was lol she was literally a child when they met, he groomed her
For all its worth.. Priscilla was a child bride growing up in another era where marrying young was not abnormal. She spent part of her teen years living with Elvis and his family and became part of the Presley family before officially marrying him. A lot of her growing up was mentored by the Presleys. Also Elvis who was directing her life to a large degree. It's understanding that his lifestyle became hers living in his household. He was no saint as some prefer to see him. He was simply still sowing his oats and having his cake and eating it too. Priscilla was his love but he was on the merry go round of celebrity much of the time. Graceland was THEIR home. Yes, Priscilla's home too. It's perfect lyrics logical that she was attached to the memories and life they lived on the grounds of Graceland. She has Lisa, the child they both dearly loved while the happy times lasted. Priscilla was young, but controlled by Elvis. Totally understandable that she felt like a bird in a gilded cage. Graceland was and always will be HOME they all shared. Vernon, Granny, and all the Presley Clan called Graceland home. Elvis 'home. He shared his home and success with his close family.
Regardless of the legal "divorce " feelings don't easily divorce and they shared a sacred bond of many years in the making. Priscilla was Elvis protégé. A most unusual story for most to absorb. But true love lives on outside the gates of Graceland, and for whatever flaws Priscilla may hsve, like we all humans have, there was deep love and respect between the Presleys. She grew up. Simply, she wanted to be herself. Elvis was living his life. She was a bird in a cage.in the final analysis, it's nobody's business but their own. Choosing to make it public in bits and pieces has served Priscilla well financially. Lisa was not old enough to handle her inheritance. Vernon passed away. Priscilla was the logical person in the succession of what to do with Graceland and also the lucrative legacy of Elvis. Good for her that she was blessed with good people to help and guide her. The Colonel Tom Parker had his claws in Elvis long enough. Good for Priscilla that she still is sentimental lyrics attached to her home and smart enough to retain the cash cow it has evolved into. Priscilla is starting to show her age regardless of the mask of cosmetic surgery. Under all that make up beats the heart of a mother, grandmothet, and former child bride who like everyone will not live forevet. Elvis was a cherished and outstanding man and talent but he was not a god. With changing times this too shall pass away. Graceland will become a past memory and the legendary Elvis, in time, will as well. I the meantime, good job, Priscilla.
@@madinareaume3373 right! Many a young girl in past decades saw getting married as a ticket from out of their parents control. There were bibles and a more puritanical set of life values back then that guided society for most families. There was a mom and dad family structure where even in bad situations the parents held a place of respect and legal guardianship over their minor children. Of course there have always been rebellious children who thought they knew it all and when boy met girl, the hormones kicking,defied their parents wisdom and got into troublesome marriages too young and immature to last. And on the flip side some young marriages lasted a lifetime.
What many people today fail to understand is using today's set of values (or lack of) to judge yesterday's. The thread of decent behavior and respectable behavior in place back in the 50s didn't allow for long hair on men, much bless all that wiggling and shaking in public by some young musician riling up all those young girls. Guys wore their hair neatly barbered and crew cuts ruled way into the 60s. It was a part of the culture to be neatly groomed. Elvis was his own fashion statement.. that in itself is wild.
Young teens often "went steady " and sweethearts slowly planned for future marriages. Often guys went into the military while the sweetheart girls waited for a future marriage date. Not unlike Priscilla who was legally a minor for whom her parents were responsible until legal age. Which age also varied depending which state it was.
Coincidently, yesterday a story came out that the FB I has just partially made. available to the public some of their records on Elvis previously sealed (NOW WE ASK, WHY were his records ever kept and sealed all these years?
If it's to be believed, the article states that a hairdresser of Elvis had threatened to expose his love affair with underage Priscilla when all this was occuring. And zip, soon after there's a rushed marriage. People can draw their own conclusions . WITH Parent's consent, Priscilla, underage of majority, could have married Elvis had he wanted to BEFORE they finally wed. AGAIN, draw your own conclusions.
Different world back then, and in many ways a lot better.
You can't call her child bride as she married as an adult. But shr def was groomed. Today I saw her vogue photo video and she always made sure she was perfect for him like a barbie doll and never looked unstylish. She always wanted amaze him not the other way around
@@Angelaius different world back then. People dressed up. She had to compete with Hollywood starlets who Elvis worked with and he had a public image to uphold. That he wanted his young wife to look glamorous was not exactly grooming although enhancing her natural good looks. Priscilla had heavy duty competition to try to keep Elvis from women constantly throwing themselves at him. Priscilla grew up being groomed to the extent that Elvis tried to mold her into a woman as she grew from the young teenager in his life for quite a number of years. This is not unusual at all and not a bad thing . It appeared more like passing on what he was seeing being involved in making nonstop movies with nonstop pretty women. At any rate, their life was what it was under their circumstances and Priscilla Beaulieu became a princess and his special love. Can't fault a girl who couldn't help falling in love. God bless her.
Very well said.
Even when she’s annoyed she does it with such grace and elegance
Priscilla is such a beautiful, gracious and classy person. ♥️
When I was working on the hit TV Show, 'Dallas', I met Priscilla. She was so very kind and gracious. She was like this with everyone there.
Personally... I love her Enthusiasm as it is clearly a very touching subject meaning, she is struggling to put into words that none of us will ever know, she cant answer the perfect question. For me, she is golden, a down toearth, honest and genuine strong women who clearly loved a forever unforgettable legend. Much love!x
His love for gospel will live in all those who loved his deep compassion for this.
So much respect for Priscilla. Of course,she is always going to be thought of when Elvis is mentioned. Her and Lisa both will be thought of along with him.
"Behind every great man theres is a great woman"
Never a more appropriate proverb when it comes to Priscilla Presley
She left him, she is only doing this for the money if she truly cared about him she should ve nevdfeft
😂😂 Elvis didn't need her. He hardly wanted to get married
Elvis was great before he met Priscilla. I can understand why she eventually wanted out of the marriage, Elvis was cheating and he kept Priscilla locked up in Graceland. Elvis was very controlling.
Without Priscilla, Graceland would've been sold to the highest bidder. Priscilla has worked tirelessly to preserve Elvis' legacy which has brought him fans of all ages from all over the world.
Even though the marriage didn't work, Elvis and Priscilla genuinely liked each other and shared a child together. Priscilla has every right to maintain Elvis' legacy for his fans and Lisa Marie. Priscilla has done an outstanding job and if it entails making money, that's great. It's better the money goes to Elvis' family.
What is crazy is that Elvis has been dead longer than he was alive. Yet he is still very popular and well known. Kind of cool to think about.
AMEN.
AND, in his heart so humble.
He will always be in her heart. Never ending lovestory ❤
She talks, laughs and grins without one single movement in her face... Amazing 🙂

Truthfully. The king of Rock and Roll was more than these woman.
They wouldn't be without him. Elvis was a man that had gift from above. The looks, that voice, his charm brought a light that will always live alone through his music.

I think the issue Priscilla has about the Estate Trust is all about making sure Elvis’s legacy is handled well ~ Not about wanting money. She reacted so quickly and decisively to maintain some control because - I sense - she is devoted to making sure Graceland and Elvis’ legacy will be beautifully preserved.
That was a sweet interview. I love that Priscilla is so ladylike. :)
Classy
I liked that he asked her how she dealt with people always associating her with Elvis instead of being able to be her own person.
Yes
I'm sorry but I find Johnathan Ross pretty rude and disrespectful in this interview. He literally made fun of Elvis' lip, Proceeded to interrupt Priscilla then mishandling the belt??. Wow dude!!!
He's discusting, don't ever give him your precious time again Priscilla.
Oh come on, Elvis was way overrated…. He was no Tom Jones.
He was also a pedophile as he started dating her from the age of 14
I'm a colossal Elvis fan. Don't lose too much sleep over it Misty. The whole reason she was on the show was to sell a CD.
