Singer Lisa Marie Presley rushed to hospital after possible cardiac arrest

Singer Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of Elvis Presley, was rushed to hospital on Thursday, where her mother Priscilla said she was getting the “best care”.

In a statement to People, Priscilla Presley, 77, said: “My beloved daughter Lisa Marie was rushed to the hospital. She is now receiving the best care. Please keep her and our family in your prayers. We feel the prayers from around the world and ask for privacy at this time,” she added.

The 54-year-old was transported from her home in Calabasas, California, to hospital after paramedics performed CPR on her following a possible cardiac arrest, TMZ first reported.

She was seen with her mother on Wednesday at the Golden Globes awards ceremony in Los Angeles. The pair attended the star-studded ceremony in support of the critically acclaimed biopic Elvis that stars Golden Globe-winner Austin Butler as the king of rock’n’roll.

Presley praised Butler for his performance, saying, “I really didn’t know what to do with myself after I saw it,” she recalled. “I had to take, like, five days to process it because it was so incredible and so spot on and just so authentic.”

Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Presley is the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley. Like her father, Presley is also a musician. Throughout her career, Presley released three albums: To Whom It May Concern (2003), Now What (2005) and Storm & Grace (2012).

At 25, Presley inherited her father’s $100m estate. In 2005, Presley’s former manager Barry Siegel sold 85% of her share in the estate.

Presley has been married four times – to musician Danny Keough, singer Michael Jackson, actor Nicolas Cage and music producer Michael Lockwood.

Presley has two children with Keough, including Benjamin Keough who killed himself at 27 years old in 2020 and 33-year-old daughter Riley Keough. She also shares 14-year-old twins Finley and Harper with Lockwood.
