Newly discovered suicide note proves The King’s death wasn’t an accident

Elvis Killed Himself!

GLOBE has uncovered the contents of not one, but two, anguished suicide notes written by The King — each one dripping with despair over his uncontrollable weight gain, drug addiction and losing the love of his life, Priscilla.

One note was found next to elvis 300-pound body, which was curled up in his Graceland bathroom. Confessing he was “tired of living, humiliated and betrayed by my own body,” Elvis wrote he was “embarrassed I can’t kick drugs.”

Elvis’ friend and road manager, the late Joe Esposito, said he found the note the day Elvis died in 1977, but burned it to hide its heartbreaking contents from his family.

“Elvis wrote losing Priscilla was the greatest mistake of his life — and he couldn’t recover from the heartache,” Esposito told GLOBE shortly before his death late last year.
