Priscilla Presley is famous for being the woman who married Elvis Presley when she was only 21 years old.
One thing led to another, and somehow the two eventually built a life together in Memphis, Tennessee.
There’s much more to this woman’s story than her famous ex-husband.
Here’s a look at a few things you might not know about Priscilla Presley.
Priscilla added that the earliest part of their marriage was especially tough.
Their daughter,Lisa Marie Presley, was born nine months after the day the two married.
Eventually, Priscilla filed for divorce from Elvis, citing her need to become her own person.
Elvis began dating actress Anita Wood in 1957, and the relationship was pretty serious.
How he was afraid I would not."
Priscilla said that after that meeting, Elvis and her father ended up speaking for nearly two hours.
The pair’s friend, author Chris Hutchins, backed up this claim in an interview withThe Daily Express.
The deed was never fulfilled, however.
“Fortunately, wiser counsel had prevailed,” Hutchins added.
She said, “He wants to do his own thing and I’m really proud of him.
He doesn’t want to step into the spotlight, and he’s always been that way.
He’s not riding on Elvis and he’s not riding on Lisa.”
Per theDaily Mail, Navarone was head over heels for his new wife.
He toldPeople, “I never thought I would find a counterpart that is so understanding and supportive.
She makes everything we do effortless, and I can’t imagine life without her.”
In 1978, Presley took on a role in the television series “Dallas.”
She loved Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy … all of the cast really.
She learned a lot too.
Those were magical years for television and ‘Dallas’ was a very special time for her."
His estate was left to his daughter, grandmother, and father.
Priscilla served as executor of Elvis' estate until Lisa Marie’s 25th birthday.
In 2017, Priscilla revealed toABC Newsthat the twins had been living with her for some time.
As she explained, “It’s still a very family-oriented environment for them.
They’ve been with me for it’ll be over nine months.
They’re doing wonderful.
They’re living a great life.
They see both their parents and we’ll see what happens.”
The move came after Lisa Marie filed claims of sexual misconduct against Lockwood.
I was very subtle and very calm, and she knows this now."
How do you not gravitate to that?
But it’s not the real world."
