Daughter of Elvis Presley, Lisa Marie Presley was born in Memphis, Tennessee. Presley dropped out of junior high and began abusing illegal drugs. Later, Presley turned to music for solace and released her first album, To Whom It May Concern, in 2003. She was married four times, including brief marriages with Michael Jackson and Nicolas Cage, and had four children.

Born on February 1, 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee, to Elvis and his wife Priscilla, Presley grew up living in her father’s Graceland estate, until the age of 4, when her parents separated. Presley moved with her mother to Los Angeles. Even though her parents were separated, she continued to see both, splitting time between both Los Angeles and Memphis. When she was 9, Presley’s father died of an apparent heart failure associated with prescription drug abuse.

As a junior in high school, Presley dropped out of school and began abusing illegal drugs. At 17, Presley was sent to Scientology’s Celebrity Center rehab facility. While there, Presley met rock ’n’ roll musician Danny Keough. Presley and Keough married on October 3, 1988. The couple had two children, a daughter named Danielle Riley and a son named Benjamin. (Benjamin died by suicide in July 2020.)

Presley and Keough divorced in 1994, after six years of marriage. Only 20 days after her divorce to Keough was finalized, Presley married Michael Jackson, who reportedly proposed over the phone after only four months of dating. Their relationship was short-lived, however, and Presley filed for divorce from Jackson in January 1996.

In 2000, while engaged to musician John Oszajca, she met Nicolas Cage. She soon broke off the engagement to Oszajca to date Cage. The couple married soon after in Hawaii on August 10, 2002, but divorced only 108 days later.

On January 22, 2006, Presley married for the fourth time, this time to guitarist, producer, and director Michael Lockwood. The couple welcomed fraternal twins, Harper and Finley, on October 7, 2008. In 2016, Presley filed for divorce from Lockwood.

Presley died on January 12, 2023, after suffering a cardiac arrest at age 54.

Her last public appearance was two days before at the 80th Golden Globe Awards, which she attended with her mother. Hundreds attended Presley’s public memorial service which was held at Graceland on January 22, and more than 1.5 million people watched the service via live stream as well. Presley was interred in the Graceland Meditation Garden, next to her son Benjamin and adjacent to her father Elvis.

During the memorial tribute at Graceland, Presley's daughter Riley's husband Ben Smith-Petersen mentioned that he and Riley had a daughter in 2022. Among those in attendance (some of whom spoke and or paid musical tribute) included her mother, surviving children, family friend Jerry Schilling, former Memphis mayor A. C. Wharton, Guns 'N' Roses lead singer Axl Rose, The Smashing Pumpkins lead singer Billy Corgan, Sarah, Duchess of York, gospel quartet The Blackwood Brothers, singer Alanis Morissette, and both the director and star of Elvis, respectively, Baz Luhrmann and Austin Butler.
