Priscilla Presley Recalls Meeting Elvis (Flashback)

Elvis dated a lot of girls. He attempted to court A LOT of girls and convince them to stay with him at Graceland. His approach was habitual. He would meet them. Speak to the parents to win their approval. Court the Girl by sharing his vulnerabilities (he loved sharing his deep thoughts with the women in his life. He didn't "only" share with this special one person, he had that relationship with all the women in his life, whether friend, lover, girlfriend, maid, colleague etc. He was good at being vulnerable). He would then request to move the girl to Graceland. The truth is, honestly, that Priscilla was the one that stuck it out the longest. She wasn't the "only" one. She wasn't a "special" one. She wasn't even his first pick. He tried to get another 14 year old (Wink Martindale's now wife, Sandy Ferrera) to move into Graceland in '60/'61 after leaving Germany. Her parents shut it down and said absolutely not. Sandy's parents recognized that she was too young for the type of lifestyle that Elvis led. He even told her parents that Sandy's mom could move in too. lol. Priscilla (and her parents) on the other hand... put up with him. If he said jump, she said how high. And the truth is that's what he thought he wanted. And let's not forget that he was in a long-term relationship with Anita Wood who he had promised to marry all while courting Priscilla, Sandy and countless others. Did he love Priscilla?... not even she could answer that question when she was asked point blank in an interview in the 80s. But I do believe that she loved him and still does...and grew to love the position and status that came along with loving him.... and still does.

My mom was in Las Vegas one year, before she was pregnant with me and he threw a hound dog teddy bear to her.. she caught it, took it home and we'll, it's lost to time now. I think he was the most handsome man I've ever seen and his singing voice- is a gift from God.

HOLY moly her granddaughter looks and sounds EXACTLY like her! The family resemblance is uncanny. Both are talented class acts

A 9th grade girl dating a 24 year old man is NOT okay ? Why has Elvis always gotten a pass for that predatory behavior?

Rip Elvis Aaron and Lisa Marie Presley, you will be missed

WTF she was 60 when this interview aired she looks so young

Whatever happened between them, I love how she is still so respectful about the whole arrangement. It just shows how much love she still has for this man, that's how pure old romance is!

I love her voice

It is so difficult to watch someone, who you love and care for, just destroy himself.

Off topic but who ever her plastic surgeon is did an amazing job! She looks great!

Legends never die diamonds are forever to live in hearts we leave behind is not to die stay strong stay positive stay safe Priscilla and family sending hugs luck love from UK takecare xxx

Nice interview!

I aways Prayed for Elvis Presley and his MOM And his DAD I was so happy for Elvis and Proud of him i asked GOD to PROTED. HIM and Family .ANGELYS Watch over HIM.He wasy Hero. Amen

Priscilla is stunning here

You know I don’t get why she even kept the last name Presley. She divorced Elvis not the other way around. I don’t get why she’s always talking about Elvis when she divorced him.

My mom dated a 25 year old when she was 15 growing up in a small town in Buenos Aires. She was born in 1960. People would often wait till marriage back then if they were serious about someone and it wasn't seen the same way as it is now. Priscilla also says they would talk on the phone for hours. So they obviously had a special connection beyond her being young and impressionable

People always hate! Girl is beautiful! Elvis was fine look at his eyes!😅

I'm glad priscilla presley talks about her husband with joy, and happiness. Your trying to wipe out that Era of his life. I hope God put them together for all eternity. Bless you priscilla presley and your granddaughters, staysafe.

I read Elvis and Me and loved it.. But this entire relationship was disturbing on so many levels.. I shouldnt judge her on her relationship but it screams denile,manipulative and co-dependent

she looks amazing for her age.
