  1. Of course, we don’t expect death, we know it is coming but only God knows when. Lisa’s heart just gave out, regardless if she had addictions, health problems, etc. When it is our turn to go, we go. RIP Lisa, you are free now and with your Dad and son. Condolences to the family

    1. After reading so many negative comments about how she overdosed and that it was drugs, it was a relief to see your positive comment. Thank you! People can be so MEAN!

    2. @Brendo Xd stop your jab bullshit. Not one person I know has died after getting vaccinated and my parents are 85 years old and are fine.

  2. America’s 1st daughter of Rock ‘n Roll royalty πŸ‘‘ … Rest in peace Lisa Marie – now you are with your father & son ~ πŸ•ŠοΈ

  3. Priscilla must be devastated what a terrible shock! No parent wants out live their children 😒 RIP Lisa Marie gone too soon, now with her Dad & son Benjamin πŸ’”πŸ˜ͺ

    1. Priscilla has a son too, not with Elvis, and tree grandchildren. Hope she can find straight to go ahead. They all need her and she them.

    2. Priscilla has her son navarone and her grandchildren to support her right now during this horrible time in her life as soon as Benjamin died Lisa Marie began dieing inside

    1. @Faux QueShe wasn’t high AF she was clearly unwell. She looked frail and broken. You can literally die of a broken heart and you don’t come back from losing a child ever.

    2. @Miki van Duyn nope. Saw it on TV. She couldn’t even walk. I could be wrong about it being Fentanyl but that’s the drug killing people left and right. Even killed Prince, and Michael Jackson. I doubt she was shooting up heroin. It was also not the signs of a stimulate.
      We’ll find out when they release the toxicology reports

    3. @JS Star It’s very odd that people refuse to believe it. She suffered from addiction during her life, as well as dope killed her father. It’s not only heart conditions that run in the family, drug and alcohol addiction does as well.
      I may be wrong about which drug killed her, but Fentanyl is claiming a whole bunch of lives. Even Michael Jackson succumbed to Fentanyl. As well as Prince and many otherd

    4. @Elizabeth McLeod we’ll find out when they release the toxicology reports. But they don’t like to put it out there in the headlines.

  4. She was a wonderful performer. I saw her years ago in Bendigo country Victoria Australia. In a little theatre. She was amazing. Sat on the edge of the stage and chatted to the audience. Her voice was deep and beautiful. It’s sad I hope she has found peace now. RIP.

  5. I’ve always had respect for Lisa Marie Presley. She didn’t seem to put on airs; she seemed real and very down to earth. And her features…she was the spitting image of her father. Praying for the family and in particular, her mother Priscilla. Condolences

    1. And her remaining children, it’s going to be difficult, I sincerely hope they find love and support moving forward.

  6. Just awful. She was so beautiful, kind, and had a great voice in her singing career!!!! Since her son died, she slowly died, herself. I pray for her family, her three daughter’s, Riley, Finley, and Harper, and especially, her Mom. πŸ˜₯πŸ˜₯πŸ˜₯πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉ…

    1. But michael jackson was a child predator like donald trump and his friemds since 1974 jeff epstein and les wexner

    2. @Mimi Z The very first message in the thread–@Cynthia Smith’s post–said she had a great voice. @Cynthia Smith said, “Just awful. She was so beautiful, kind, and had a great voice in her singing career!!!!” That’s what @Schlep Messing was responding to. Great voice of not, sympathy to her mother and children.

  7. My wife died suddenly of cardiac arrest 18 months ago at 52 years old. She didn’t smoke, drink or do drugs and wasn’t hugely overweight. She fell asleep watching TV and never woke up. Makes one have a whole new outlook on our life and how incredibly brief and unpredictable it is.

    1. @Fly with me You are evil go on and get your jab to keep you alive without what’s going to happen to you ??? People die always young and old are you living under the rock or cave πŸ€” πŸ’―

  8. As an actor who worked with Priscilla Presley on a film in Hollywood, I send her my deepest condolences. Lisa was a fine human being and a lovely lady.

    RIP Lisa Marie

    1. @Hayley Butcher Also, Priscilla had this wonderful way of including you in her life. And she was very modest with time for everyone. A nice lady.

    2. @Phoenix 333 i get what your saying but that doesnt mean the term rest in peace or resting in power or resting in love doesnt apply to the state she is now in

  9. God bless Lisa Marie, her daughters and her dearest mom Heart ❀️ May she rest in peace.
    When I heard the news I related immediately. My sister had 2 cardiac arrests this last year. She’s doing ok. They found she has “broken heart syndrome” (weakness in the left ventricle). We lost our mom last February and she didn’t do well at all with the loss.
    We all need to acknowledge the grief process better and recognize it so we may be better support to others when they are often suffering in silence.

  10. I saw a picture of her from the awards show yesterday before I found out about her passing I thought to myself that she looked awful her face was so strange looking almost like it wasn’t her now I know why it’s extremely sad but she did get to see a movie that was made she said that really portrayed her father exactly the way he really was Austin Butler and the man who made the movie should be very proud. RIP LISA 😒 πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»

    1. I thought something similar. It was very important to her to restore her dad’s humanity, instead of the lousy movies that have been done before, etc. Baz and Austin did a wonderful job at portraying him as a real person and not some stupid caricature. Whether they win awards or not, they can be very proud of the movie they created. We know it meant alot to Lisa and the rest of the family.

    2. Her heart was probably struggling then. She needed support to stand. Now its too late to say maybe you should get checked? So sad

  11. My son in law’s father died of cardiac arrest at 56 it broke my son in law’s heart along with many others,the only good thing that came from it my daughter made my son in law tell his doctor how his father’s death and through tests he was diagnosed with a genetic heart disorder but is being treated for it thankfully. RIP Lisa Marie

  12. Her album “To Whom It May Concern” is AMAZING! I wore that CD out in college, it literally would not play anymore until I had to buy it again. Now I own it digitally and I still rock out to it on the regular. I loved her so very much. I was afraid she would not recover from the loss of her son 2 years ago, I was worried the heartbreak would kill her. It sounds like it did. So much love for her. A beautiful lady and a great musical artist in her own right. We love you Lisa Marie, we love you, we love you.

  13. So so sad. I loved Lisa Presley. Loved her music also. Such a terrible loss. Prayers to her children, mother and family.πŸ’”πŸ™πŸ»

  14. Good commentary here. As an ER Dr, I have seen people go home after a normal cardiac stress test and die from a cardiac arrest from an electrical issue. A heart attack which is caused by a lack of blood flow to part if the heart muscle is one of the causes of a disruption of the electrical pattern. Drugs like cocaine can be another cause It’s complicated. So sad for her and her family. Ny prayers go out to them.

    1. @Susan Kay Well, unfortunately, that does not cause a cardiac event all by itself. But anything like coronary artery disease, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, drugs, or even an underlying hidden cardiac arrhythmias can be the culprit. (among other causes). I guess if you constantly flood the body with dress hormones on top of underlying issues, that would add to the risk, but I would never count depression as a primary cause.

    2. She looks like a PE patient to me at the Golden Globe awards. Her color is off, she’s unsteady, but very much lucid. It’s that weird breath she took in the middle of a sentence… I’ve seen that before and I know you have too. I wish she had come in…

    3. I believe hers was cocaine. She could barely walk on tuesday and she looked bad. I think she was using again and it was,killing her. They said she was just shaking the whole time, Nerves shot, malnutrition, depression, lack of exercise, you name it.

  15. Condolences to Lisa’s family. It appears that she achieved a nice closure recently regarding her father. Lisa celebrated her father’s birthday at Graceland and was so happy regarding the success of the Elvis movie. Also, she was a success in her own right. Well-done!

    1. She died four days after her dad’s birthday. Creepy and sad. It’s almost like she was hanging on until she could get that closure and then just let herself go. RIP.

  16. When I heard she had died, I felt like I had suddenly been transported back in time 45 years to when her dad died. Rest In Peace Lisa. πŸ˜₯😰😒

  17. My daughter died of cardiac arrest at age 32 in 2018 She was not a smoker or drinker. I miss her so much. Grief never goes away you live it every day

  18. Sending love to Priscilla and her grand babies they need all the love and support that they can get right now… I’m so sorry for your loss πŸ˜”
