Priscilla Presley contests the will of her daughter Lisa Marie, who died suddenly

Will we be witnessing a succession war, of those tearing up music clans in 2017, like the Halliday family? On Thursday, Jan. 26, Priscilla Presley filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court to challenge the will of her daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, who died on Jan. 12 at the age of 54. An approach that aims to undo the “purported 2016 amendment” and which evicts him from his property. This is reported for the benefit of his two grandsons, Riley Keough and Benjamin Keough Page six .

A turnaround for Priscilla, 77, who was originally named co-trustee under her daughter’s will in January 1993 with her former business manager Barry Siegel. According to the American media, the king’s daughter also executed a “revocable trust, which she amended and completely reformed on January 27, 2010.”

A fake signature?

In March 2016, however, Lisa Marie Presley finally changed her mind, appointing her two elders, Riley Keough and Benjamin Keough from her union with Danny Keough, to manage the estate instead of the couple. With Benjamin taking his own life in 2020, management of the estate will therefore fall entirely to Priscilla’s granddaughter, actress Riley Keough.

His grandmother makes two arguments in support of her appeal. First, he believes that the signature will not match the signature of his daughter, Lisa Marie. Moreover, if the latter had really changed his mind, he makes it private Page six, he should have warned his former successors. Something he would never do, his mother assures him.

$16 million in debt

The media also details that Lisa Marie Presley was in debt before her death. In conflict with his former manager, whom he accused of squandering his father Elvis Presley’s inheritance, he owed the state about $16 million. Her only remaining possession, the family home of Graceland in Memphis, where she is now buried with her son and father.
