The overcast day in Memphis matched the mood as Lisa Marie Presley was laid to rest alongside her late father and son at Graceland on January 19.

Elvis’ only child died from a cardiac arrest at just 54, leaving her grieving mother Priscilla clutching son Navarone Garibaldi for support as they arrived in Tennessee for the public memorial service.

Lisa Marie’s eldest daughter, Riley Keough, 33, was too upset to read her eulogy, handing it over to her husband, Ben Smith-Petersen.

The Aussie stuntman revealed the pair had made Lisa Marie a grandmother before her death.

“Thank you for showing me love is the only thing that matters in this life,” Ben read out on Riley’’s behalf. “I hope I can love my daughter the way you loved me, the way you loved my brother and my sisters.”

It was added that Riley, her brother Benjamin (who died in 2020 aged 27) and her 14-year-old twin sisters Harper and Finley were “a product” of Lisa Marie’s heart.
