Priscilla Presley responds after being accused of pulling daughter Lisa Marie’s life support in shocking lawsuit

Priscilla Presley's lawyers have responded to a 'shameless' $50million lawsuit, which has accused the 80-year-old of pulling her daughter Lisa Marie's life support.

Lisa Marie Presley passed away at the age of 54 after suffering a cardiac arrest and being placed in an induced coma in January 2023.

It was revealed on Thursday (August 14) that former business partners of Priscilla have accused the star of pulling Lisa's life support in a bid to get control of her family name.

According to documents obtained by The Post, Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko - who are the heads of Priscilla Presley Partners - said Priscilla ‘ultimately wanted to control’ her daughter’s trust and Graceland.

Graceland is the estate which rock and roll icon Elvis Presley owned, which was bestowed upon her after his death in 1977.

Priscilla has also been accused of knowing that her daughter was preparing to remove her as head of her trust and subsequently ‘pulled the plug within hours of Lisa Marie being admitted’ to the hospital.

"Priscilla knew that Lisa’s death neutralized the threat of Lisa’s efforts to have Priscilla removed as the sole trustee of Lisa’s irrevocable life insurance trust, and Priscilla ultimately wanted to control the Promenade Trust and Graceland," the lawsuit claims.

“At her house the following week, Priscilla allegedly exclaimed, 'I’m the queen. I’m in charge of Graceland'.”

Lawyer Marty Singer, who acts on behalf of Priscilla, has since issued a statement and dubbed the lawsuit 'ridiculous' and 'salacious'.

A statement provided to UNILAD said: "This is, without a doubt, one of the most shameful, ridiculous, salacious, and meritless lawsuits I have seen in my practice.

"This is nothing more than a sad and vicious attempt to falsely tarnish the reputation of an eighty-year-old woman in blatant retaliation for bringing a lawsuit to redress the wrongful conduct of Brigitte Kruse, Kevin Fialko, and their co-conspirators.

"Kruse and her co-conspirators are now on their fourth different set of lawyers in this dispute, and this is a disgusting publicity stunt by new counsel, as evidenced by the fact that the complaint and press release were sent to the press before the complaint was served.

"Accusing a grieving mother of contributing to her daughter’s death is not savvy advocacy; it is malicious character assassination, and should be broadly condemned.

"These fabricated claims have absolutely no validity, and we are confident this case will be dismissed."

The statement went on to say that Riley Keough, the eldest daughter of Lisa Marie, is fully behind her grandmother as the threat of legal action comes to fruition.
