Exclusive News: Netflix Announces Date for Release of Documentary on Danielle Riley Keough Following Her…

Elvis Presley’s granddaughter has filed a last-minute lawsuit that would stop Presley’s iconic Graceland home from being sold at a foreclosure sale on the steps of a Memphis courthouse on May 23, 2024. The King of rock ‘n’ roll’s granddaughter sued what she called “a false entity” for trying to force the foreclosure sale based on forged documents purporting to bear the signature of her late mother, Lisa Marie Presley.

According to an official notice, Graceland is set to be auctioned off for cash to the highest bidder on the Shelby County Courthouse steps on May 23. The notice comes almost a year to the date after Priscilla Presley and the estate of Lisa Marie Presley reportedly reached a settlement of their lawsuit over control of the property.

Graceland is a 13-acre residence in Memphis, Tennessee, that was transformed into a major tourist destination that boasts annual visitors numbering over 600,000. In addition to the home in which Presley lived, the property includes a massive collection of memorabilia and sits across the street from several museum-style Elvis-themed attractions. Elvis, his daughter Lisa Marie, and Lisa Marie’s son Benjamin Keough who died by suicide at age 27 in 2020, are buried next to each other on the Graceland property.

Lisa Marie’s daughter, Danielle Riley Keough, 34, known professionally as Riley Keough, is a Golden Globe and Emmy nominated actor and the star of the recent hit series Daisy Jones & the Six. The series, an adaptation of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s novel of the same name, is loosely based on the infamous history of 1970s rock band Fleetwood Mac. Keough played the titular role in the series, which featured her performing a number of original songs.

After Lisa Marie Presley died suddenly in January 2023, her assets were held in a living trust which named her mother Priscilla and her former business partner Barry Siegel as co-trustees. The trust proved to be problematic in that a 2016 amendment shifted control to Benjamin and Riley — Lisa Marie’s two children.

However, because Benjamin predeceased his mother, the legal effect of the amendment would transfer control solely to Riley as the sole surviving trustee. After Lisa Marie died, Priscilla filed a petition contesting the validity of the 2016 amendment and asking that she and Siegel be revived as co-trustees to conform with the earlier version of the trust.
