Fortune The spelling of the signature, the lack of a notary... Priscilla Presley explains why she has challenged her daughter's will
Controversial Priscilla Presley challenges the will of her daughter Lisa Marie, which favors her granddaughter Riley
The
family war
that has led to the tragic death of
Lisa Marie Presley
, who died last January at the age of 54, has reached
heights of drama
more typical of a television soap opera.
Priscilla Presley,
mother of the deceased, and the daughter of the latter, Riley Keough, continue
to face each other in court over control of the vast estate
bequeathed by Elvis's daughter, who died at her home in Calabasas (California) after suffering an arrest cardiorespiratory.
The king of rock left his entire fortune and property to Lisa Marie upon her death in 1977, and she
officially took control
of it on her 25th birthday in 1993.

Control, drugs, Scientology... When the relationship between Priscilla and Lisa Marie Presley was not idyllic
The battle has now taken on much more crude and personal overtones, which reveal the
rough relationship
that exists these days between grandmother and granddaughter.
It must be remembered that Priscilla has tried to challenge her daughter's will, which was modified in 2016 to
expel her as heir and manager
of all those assets, while leaving Lisa Marie's offspring as sole beneficiaries: the aforementioned Riley and Benjamin, who took his own life in 2020 at just 27 years old.
Elvis's ex-wife alleged various formal defects and, above all, denounced a
possible fraud
by ensuring that the controversial clause had not been signed by the testator.

These legal actions, as Radar Online now explains,
deeply outraged Riley,
33, and caused a
total break
between the parties, with no room for consensus or reconciliation.
Right now, Lisa Marie's daughter
wants nothing to do with Priscilla
and has ruled out having any goodwill gesture towards her, as she would have originally anticipated.
His anger
at her
is such that Riley would have
changed the locks
of the Graceland family mansion and also those of those filing cabinets that
guard documents
of the highest relevance.
The administration of the farm corresponds ultimately to her, as well as 15% of the shares in the company that manages Elvis's image rights, without forgetting two insurance
policies
valued at 35 million dollars.

Priscilla may have been left out of the estate she once shared with the legendary artist, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have
allies in this bloody fight.
Michael Lockwood, Lisa Marie's husband between 2006 and 2021, claims Riley
a pension of $40,000 a month
to support the two daughters he had with the artist, the twins Harper and Finley.
Although until the death of Lisa Marie they all presented themselves publicly as a united front, which they tried to demonstrate during the promotion of the biopic Elvis, the truth is that Priscilla and Lisa Marie would not speak for months, all because the matriarch of
the
clan he would have supported his former son-in-law in his financial claims.
