Wow, talk about family updates and legacy-building! Priscilla Presley recently dropped by the Today show to share exciting plans for Graceland and honor the memory of the one and only Elvis Presley. But that's not all—she also gave fans a peek into her family life, including updates on her daughter Lisa Marie Presley and her granddaughters. Let’s dive in!
How’s Lisa Marie Doing These Days?
When the hosts asked how her daughter Lisa Marie Presley is faring, Priscilla couldn’t help but beam with pride. “She’s doing well,” the former Dallas and Naked Gun star confirmed, her voice warm with affection. This update comes just days after news broke that Lisa Marie is set to write a tell-all book. According to an insider, this has Priscilla feeling a bit "worried," but hey, we all know family dynamics can get tricky sometimes, right?
Granddaughters Stealing the Spotlight
Priscilla then shifted the conversation to her granddaughters, Finley Aaron Love and Harper Vivienne Ann, who are practically growing up before our eyes. “The twins are doing great—they’re almost 11 years old now,” she shared with a chuckle. “Time flies so fast, it’s unbelievable!” As any proud grandma would, Priscilla couldn’t resist gushing about their budding talents. “I think they’re quite talented, actually,” she said, noting that the girls have been exploring various artistic paths, including ballet, dance, and opera. Sounds like they’ve inherited some serious rock 'n' roll genes from their legendary grandpa!

Bringing Elvis’ Story to the Big Screen
On top of all the family news, Priscilla also spilled the beans about a major project she’s working on: a biopic about her late husband, the King of Rock 'n' Roll, with none other than director Baz Luhrmann. Can you believe it? The movie, starring Austin Butler as Elvis and Tom Hanks as his legendary manager Colonel Tom Parker, is shaping up to be something truly special. “It’s going to be a very interesting picture,” Priscilla teased, adding that Baz’s unique style will bring a fresh take to the story. “It’s going to be stylized very differently, and it’s going to be something quite honest. We’re really looking forward to it.”
And if you’re wondering how involved the family is in the process, Priscilla reassured fans that they’re “very much involved.” In fact, Baz has already visited her home a couple of times for lunch to discuss the film’s direction. Talk about dedication!
What Would Elvis Think?
Finally, the hosts couldn’t resist asking what Priscilla thinks Elvis would make of all the attention he continues to receive decades after his untimely passing at just 42 years old. Her answer was simple yet profound: “He would not believe it. Truly, he would not believe it.” It’s a reminder of just how extraordinary Elvis’ impact has been, and how his legacy continues to inspire new generations.
So there you have it—a heartwarming update from Priscilla Presley, filled with family pride, exciting projects, and a lasting tribute to the King. Stay tuned for more as this incredible story unfolds!
