On Tuesday night, Priscilla Presley stepped out on the red carpet for the first time since her daughter Lisa Marie’s funeral.
Presley wore a black pantsuit for a special screening of the Netflix series “Agent Elvis” in Los Angeles.
A war is waged over Lisa Marie’s trust and Elvis’ fortune while Priscilla tries to manage her smile for the camera.
A new issue of People magazine reports that Lisa Marie and her mother barely spoke in the weeks leading up to the singer’s tragic death at the age of 54.
Days after Lisa Marie’s funeral, Priscilla filed legal papers questioning the validity of her daughter’s living trust. The amendment removed Elvis Presley her 15% control of her Enterprises and made Lisa her Marie’s deceased son Benjamin and her daughter Riley her Keough responsible.
Sources now say Priscilla and Riley are estranged, despite mourning Lisa Marie separately.
According to the outlet, Priscilla and Riley “don’t see eye to eye.”
family insider Added“Priscilla doesn’t want Riley alone in charge because she doesn’t have a say. Riley, on the other hand, doesn’t want Priscilla to intervene.”
Another source close to Riley said, “It’s a sad situation. Riley is shocked that Priscilla is challenging the Amendment.”
Priscilla and Riley are battling over last year’s reported $110 million in earnings. Lisa Marie was reportedly earning over $100,000 a month from her holdings in Elvis Presley Enterprises, a trust that also included her family’s beloved Graceland .
In January, Lisa Marie made her penultimate public appearance at Graceland to celebrate her late father’s birthday.
At the time, she told fans, “I keep saying you’re the only one who can take me out of my house.”
A court hearing regarding Lisa Marie’s trust is scheduled for April 13.
