Riley Keough’s Vision for Graceland: Honoring Legacy and Preserving Family History

Following a highly publicized legal battle with her grandmother Priscilla Presley, actress Riley Keough emerged in August 2023 as the sole trustee of her late mother Lisa Marie Presley’s estate—most notably inheriting the iconic Graceland mansion. Located in Memphis, Tennessee, Graceland is more than just a property; it is a cultural landmark and a living testament to the enduring legacy of Elvis Presley.

Keough, the daughter of Lisa Marie and granddaughter of Elvis, has taken on the responsibility with a deep sense of respect and purpose. In her own words, she aims to “continue what my grandmother Priscilla Presley did and then my mother did, which is simply to preserve our family home.” With this statement, Keough made clear that her stewardship of Graceland is not about ownership, but guardianship—honoring three generations of Presleys and maintaining the site for future fans and family alike.

In addition to her plans for Graceland, Keough is working to preserve and share her mother’s voice. Lisa Marie had been working on a memoir before her untimely passing in 2023, and Keough is now completing it using a collection of recorded tapes. In these recordings, Lisa Marie speaks candidly about her life—grappling with the loss of her father Elvis, the heartbreak of losing her son Benjamin in 2020, and the joy of becoming a grandmother to Riley’s daughter, Tupelo.

Through these tapes, Keough hopes to portray her mother as the complex, vibrant woman she truly was: a “wild child,” a devoted mother, a fierce friend, and an underrated artist. In doing so, she aims to give Lisa Marie the multidimensional recognition that often escaped her in life—just as she preserves Graceland, not just as a monument, but as a living legacy.
