Lisa Marie Presley

Lisa is the only daughter of the American singer Elvis Presley and Priscilla Presley. Like her dad, she had an inclination toward music. 

Her first album titled 'To Whom It May Concern' was launched in the year 2003. Some of her singles became big hits and 'Lights Out' was among the Billboard Hot Adult Top 40.

In 2005, her second album named 'Now What' was available in the market. And her third and final album 'Storm & Grace' was released in the year 2012. 

Born on February 1, 1968, Lisa grew up in a rich and renowned yet troublesome household. While her parents divorced when she was just 4, she had to go through an even bigger loss in 1977 when her father passed away. 

Her life and relationships before and her marriage were as complicated as ever. After her separation from Danny in 1994, she started dating the music sensation, Michael Jackson. 

Presley married Jackson in 1994 and divorced 2 years later. Then, she was associated with Nicolas Cage and Michael Lockwood. 

With Lockwood, she gave birth to twin daughters, Finley Aaron Love Lockwood, and Harper Vivienne Ann Lockwood.

Danny Keough

Danny and Lisa met for the first time when they were mere teenagers. Danny is also a singer and an actor, who was born in 1964.

Compared to Lisa who grew up in wealth and luxury, Danny came from an economically retarded background. Their son Benjamin mostly stayed with his mom, whereas Riley spent most of her time with Danny in Hawaii.

Riley Keough Daugther 

Riley Keough has only one child called Tupelo. The only baby of Keough was given the name 'Tupelo' as a tribute to her great-grandfather, Elvis Presley.

Elvis was welcomed into the world at his home in Tupelo, Mississippi, United States on the 8th of January, 1935. So, Riley named her baby 'Tupelo' in remembrance of her father.

The birth of Lisa Marie Presley's grandchild, Tupelo was kept a secret for some time until it was revealed at the funeral rites of Lisa.
