Lisa Marie Presley‘s highly anticipated memoir will be published posthumously, with a confirmed release date.

Lisa Marie Presley’s Memoir Details

The memoir of Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of the iconic Elvis and Priscilla Presley, is officially set to be released on October 15 by Random House publication. The untitled memoir, which Lisa Marie had been diligently working on before her unexpected passing one year ago, will see completion through collaborative efforts with her eldest daughter, Riley Keough.

Random House has described the upcoming memoir as a “raw, riveting, one-of-a-kind” memoir that will unveil the mysteries surrounding one of America’s most legendary families.

The publisher reveals that the memoir primarily contains Lisa Marie’s own words, with Riley Keough stepping in to “fill in the blanks” from her own memories. The narrative is expected to delve into Lisa Marie’s relationships with her father Elvis and her mother Priscilla, including other relationships she has kept private in the past— such as her marriages with actor Nicolas Cage and singer Michael Jackson. Other details given about the contents of the book includes Lisa Marie addressing the heartbreaking loss of her son, Benjamin, who took his own life in 2020.

Shining Light on Lisa Marie’s Legacy

Lisa Marie unexpectedly passed away at the age of 54 due to a bowel obstruction stemming from complications of bariatric surgery she underwent several years earlier. Now, Riley Keough is committed to showing her mother’s true self to the world, sharing the story that Lisa Marie is no longer able to tell herself.

“Few people had the opportunity to know who my mom really was, other than being Elvis’s daughter,” Keough said in a statement.

“I was lucky to have had that opportunity and working on preparing her autobiography for publication has been a privilege, albeit a bittersweet one. I’m so excited to share my mom now, at her most vulnerable and most honest, and in doing so, I do hope that readers come to love my mom as much as I did.”
