Singer Lisa Marie Presley, Elvis Presley’s only daughter, died Thursday at the age of 54 after being hospitalized for cardiac arrest.
Her mother, Priscilla Presley, has confirmed the death of Lisa Marie through a statement provided by a representative to the U.S. television network CNN.
«Priscilla Presley and the Presley family are shocked and devastated by the tragic death of their beloved Lisa Marie. They are deeply grateful for everyone’s support, love and prayers, and ask for privacy during this very difficult time,» the statement reads.
Hours earlier, Priscilla reported via an Instagram post that her daughter had been rushed to a local hospital. Lisa Marie was unconscious in her Calabasas home, both her ex-husband Danny Keough and, later, the paramedics performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation, as reported by ‘TMZ’ magazine.
This same week, Lisa Marie Presley attended the Golden Globes 2023 gala in Los Angeles, to support actor Austin Butler who played Elvis Presley in a musical biopic and who had been nominated for Best Performance in a Motion Picture Drama, an award he finally won.
Born in 1968, Lisa Marie followed in her father’s footsteps and pursued a career in music, releasing three albums. The first, in 2003, sold thousands of copies and received generally positive reviews.
