In a heart-touching twist worthy of the Presley family legacy, Riley Keough, daughter of Lisa Marie Presley, has fulfilled a deeply emotional duty—completing her late mother’s memoir. Titled From Here to the Great Unknown, the book delves into themes of love, loss, grief, and addiction, and is set to resonate with fans of the Presley legacy.
Lisa Marie, the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, passed away suddenly in 2023, leaving the memoir unfinished. Riley, determined to honor her mother’s memory, took up the responsibility of completing the project. “It felt like a duty I had to complete for her,” she said. The book explores intimate details of Lisa Marie’s extraordinary life, including her relationships, struggles, and the emotional impact of her father’s death in 1977.
The memoir also discusses Lisa Marie’s marriage to Michael Jackson, her battles with addiction, and the heartbreaking loss of her son Benjamin in 2020. Through voice recordings of her mother, Riley managed to capture Lisa Marie’s essence in her own words, making the memoir deeply personal.
While the Presley family may have lived in the public eye, Riley noted that her mother’s true goal with the book was to connect with readers on a human level. Despite the family’s fame, the memoir touches on universal struggles, making Lisa Marie’s story one of shared grief and resilience.
With this heartfelt project, Riley ensures that her mother’s voice will continue to resonate with fans for generations to come.
