Elvis Presley’s “Secret Grandson” Chewy Thompson Sparks Explosive Rumors the King Is Still Alive
Could it be true? Has Chewy Thompson — a young social media star rumored to be Elvis Presley’s secret grandson — just revealed the unthinkable: that the King of Rock and Roll is still alive?
The speculation began when Thompson, known for his unique fitness content and inspiring “walking one inch per follower” challenge, was seen during a tour of Graceland being discreetly escorted upstairs by a staff member. The upstairs quarters of Elvis’s iconic home have been strictly off-limits since his death in 1977, preserved exactly as they were in his final days. Only a few outsiders — such as actors Austin Butler and Nicolas Cage — have ever been granted access.
Witnesses say the Graceland employee whispered to Thompson, “It’s time.” That simple phrase ignited a firestorm of theories. Could Thompson be related to Elvis? And more shockingly — could he be visiting a still-living King hidden away upstairs?
Thompson, who began his Instagram journey in late 2023 and quickly amassed over a million followers, bears a striking resemblance to a young Elvis, right down to recently dying his hair black. His impressive weight loss of more than 60 pounds has only amplified the similarities. Fans point to his rare Graceland access as proof of a deep family connection.
Some speculate Chewy could be the son of Linda Thompson, Elvis’s former girlfriend, explaining the shared last name. Others have noted his recent public connection to John Carter Cash, son of music legend Johnny Cash — a friend and tour mate of Elvis in the 1950s — adding yet another layer of intrigue.
Conspiracy theories that Elvis faked his death to escape the pressures of fame and the mafia have persisted for decades. For believers, Chewy’s visits are not just about honoring his grandfather’s memory, but perhaps meeting him in secret.
Whether truth or coincidence, Chewy Thompson’s story blends mystery, family legacy, and modern influencer culture — ensuring that the legend of Elvis Presley remains alive for a new generation.
