Riley Keough can’t get over what happened to her mother Lisa Marie

According to Riley Keough, she feels “grateful” that a final portrait of her mother Lisa Marie Presley was shot before her passing.

Following an emergency medical admission, Presley passed away on January 12. Although it was first stated that she had a cardiac arrest, the coroner has since requested a deferral of the cause of death investigation.

The 54-year-old singer-songwriter was the daughter of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, and the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner has requested an expanded investigation and additional investigations into her passing.

Keough shared a photo of herself and her late mother smiling in a restaurant. “I consider myself fortunate to have a picture of the last time I saw my lovely mother. Thankful @georgieflores captured this.,” she captioned the photo.

In an emotional eulogy given out during the musician’s Graceland public funeral service, it was revealed that Presley had just lately become a grandmother before she passed suddenly.

Ben Smith-Petersen, Keough’s spouse, read a letter that had been written by her. “A letter to my mama – thank you for being my mother in this life,” it said at the outset. I will always be grateful that we were together for 33 years. As far back as I can remember, and I can remember everything, I’m sure I made the best mother choice for me in the entire world, according to Rolling Stone.

Keough’s letter continued, noting how she remembered: “how it felt to be cherished by the most wonderful mother I’ve ever known”.

She continued her letter by saying, “I hope I can love my daughter the way you loved me,” before announcing that she had secretly given birth to her first kid.

“I want to thank you for giving me heart, strength, empathy, and courage, as well as my sense of humor, politeness, temper, and stubbornness because of the way you loved my brother and sisters. I came from your heart. My sisters and my brother are the results of your heart’s work. You and we are one. I wish you would realize how much you were cherished here. We appreciate how hard you worked for us. Thank you if I didn’t say it every day.

After hearing of Presley’s passing, a bevy of celebrities, including John Travolta, Tom Hanks, Pink, her ex-husband Nicolas Cage, the estate of her former spouse Michael Jackson, Elvis star Austin Butler, and Axl Rose, sent their condolences.
