LISA MARIE'S LIFESAVING BREAK FROM SCIENTOLOGY!

Rebuilding her life with psychological therapy forbidden by church dogma

AFTER 40 years under Scientology’s thumb, Lisa Marie Presley has fled the controlling cult to get the forbidden mental health treatment she desperately needed to save her spiraling out-of-control life, sources say.

Now, Elvis’ 53-year old daughter, who feels abused and betrayed by the church, is pleading with her mom, Priscilla, 75, and actress-daughter, Riley Keough, 31, to leave the religion, too — just like tragic son Ben, 27, did before his recent suicide, says a source close to the family.

“Lisa sees the world in a whole new way since leaving Scientology and feels cheated by following their rules and practices for so long,” says the source.

“She knows how hard it is to get out but has been subtly hinting to Riley she’d like her to leave too, or at the very least to stop practicing Scientology.

“Her mother, Priscilla, too. If she stopped being part of the church Lisa thinks it would go some way to healing their feud.”

Meanwhile, following years of abusing cocaine and pills, a five-year divorce battle with fourth hubby Michael Lockwood and the devastating July 12 death of Riley’s brother Ben, 27, Lisa Marie sunk into a pit of black despair, sources claim.
