Moving On
Eight months later, Lisa Marie Presley, Elvis Presley’s small daughter from his marriage to Priscilla, called Thompson. The nine-year-old child told mom of Elvis’s passing and was saddened. “It was such a shock, no matter how much you anticipate someone is going to pass,” Thompson said in an interview with Vintage Rock Magazine.
But now that Elvis had passed away, she could at last begin to move on and live the life she had always desired. Even though she was just 27, she was eager to be married and have a family. She had no idea that the next person she would meet would radically upend her life.
