The terrible tragedy of Lisa Marie Presley's recent passing has revealed a surprising ray of hope for the devastated Presley family. Arriving on a private jet in Memphis ahead of her mother's funeral at Graceland, 33-year-old Riley Keough was spotted holding a baby as she descended the stairs on a gloomy Tennessee day.
Hours later, her husband, Aussie stuntman Ben SmithPetersen, confirmed during a eulogy he read on behalf of Riley that the couple had welcomed a child - Lisa Marie's granddaughter.
GUIDING LIGHT
"Thank you for showing me love is the only thing that matters in this life. I hope I can love my daughter the way you loved me, the way you loved my brother and my sisters," Ben said, reading a letter written by his distraught wife.
"The baby is the one thing that will hold the Presleys together," sources close to Lisa Marie's mum Priscilla tell Woman's Day. "Lisa adored being a grandmother. It gave her a light at the end of the grief tunnel after losing her son Ben to suicide in 2020. They know Lisa would want them to keep pushing on for that little girl."
