Riley Keough, the granddaughter of Elvis Presley, shared a huge update with fans regarding Graceland as she defiantly vowed to 'preserve our family home'
The granddaughter of Elvis Presley has revealed that the iconic Graceland estate, which had been at the centre of a legal battle, is now in safe hands.
Riley oversees the sub-trusts of her sisters Finley and Harper Lockwood, 15, who her mum shared with her former husband Michael Lockwood before their split in 2021. Back in 2018, it was alleged that Lisa Marie had signed a deed of trust in order to secure a loan through a company called Naussany Investments and Private Lending, which had supposedly used Graceland as collateral.
In May this year, a judge blocked the opportunity to place Graceland for auction by the company, which claimed the estate had failed to adequately repay the loan. And this is why she said she hoped to continue what her grandmother and mother had done before her, "which is simply to preserve our family home.”
The property, which boasts 13.8 acres of land, attracts on average half-a-million visitors annually, as fans around the world pay tribute to the iconic rock-and-roll singer. After the sudden death of Lisa Marie, Riley claimed that her mother had died of a broken heart as she struggled to deal with the death of her son Benjamin. Ben died in 2020 aged 27 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
