Wish:\u00a0Priscilla Presley has confirmed it is her wish to be buried next to her late ex-husband Elvis when she dies on his Graceland estate in Memphis<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Everlasting love:\u00a0One of the details of the settlement being Priscilla will be laid to rest in Graceland as close to Elvis’ plot as possible<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What’s going on?\u00a0Touching on the dispute in their interview, Piers probed Priscilla on the disagreement<\/p>\n
He said: ‘At the centre of it, it seemed quite straightforward that Lisa-Marie had changed her will and hadn’t told you. In changing it she had made the trustees her children, which is perfectly understandable, you just didn’t know.<\/p>\n
‘So when she suddenly dies, tragically young, and this all comes out, you were caught blindsided, or that’s how it seemed to me.<\/p>\n
Priscilla replied: ‘Yes that’s all it was. I think Riley will be great, she’s asked me a few things like what to do with Graceland.’<\/p>\n
Piers queried: ‘There may be some issue with the fact that you would one day be buried at Graceland, with Elvis, do you want to clear that up? What are your feelings?’<\/p>\n
Priscilla added: ‘My feelings are great, that’s what I want and wanted.’<\/p>\n
Piers questioned: ‘So you will be buried there?’, and she replied ‘yes’.<\/p>\n
It comes after Priscilla and\u00a0Elvis’ granddaughter\u00a0Riley’s settlement was approved by a judge ten months after Lisa Marie’s death.<\/p>\n
The two had reached a settlement agreement months ago which resulted in the actress\u00a0becoming sole trustee of her late mother’s estate and owning the iconic Memphis, Tennessee mansion Graceland.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Piers queried: ‘There may be some issue with the fact that you would one day be buried at Graceland, with Elvis, do you want to clear that up? What are your feelings?’\u00a0<\/p>\n
Priscilla will receive a $1million lump-sum payments which were funded by Lisa Marie’s life insurance policy in the settlement recently officially approved by a Los Angeles Superior Court judge, according to documents obtained by People.<\/p>\n
In addition her son\u00a0Navarone Garibaldi will be a beneficiary of Lisa Marie’s trust as well and perhaps most importantly of all, Priscilla will be buried near her ex-husband Elvis at Graceland when she passes away.<\/p>\n
The publication obtained an unredacted copy of the agreement after Riley’s attorney Justin Gold filed for it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
People reports that Priscilla will also be paid $100K-a-year for her role as a special advisor ‘for her role as special advisor of the promenade trust related to its shareholder interest in Elvis Presley Enterprises, a non-fiduciary role.’<\/p>\n
According to the paperwork, those payments will be dispersed in monthly instalments which are guaranteed for 10 years or Priscilla’s death, regardless whether or not Riley ever terminates Priscilla’s special advisor role.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Terms:\u00a0The two had reached a settlement agreement months ago which resulted in the actress becoming sole trustee of her late mother’s estate and owning the iconic Memphis, Tennessee mansion Graceland (pictured in 2016)<\/p>\n
Lisa Marie diedIN January after suffering cardiac arrest at her Calabasas home.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was later found that she died from a ‘small bowel obstruction’ caused by a bariatric surgery that she had undergone according to the autopsy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Back in August, Riley was named the sole trustee of the family estate as she now owns Graceland, after a battle with her grandmother Priscilla.<\/p>\n
The appointment was approved during a hearing earlier today before Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Lynn Healey Scaduto, Deadline reported.<\/p>\n
Her grandmother\u00a0had filed a petition to challenge the validity of her late daughter Lisa Marie’s will in January.<\/p>\n
The two had been at loggerheads since the death of Lisa Marie.\u00a0Riley is Elvis’ oldest surviving grandchild; her brother Benjamin killed himself three years ago and she has two 14-year-old half-sisters, Harper and Finley Lockwood.<\/p>\n

The legal action disputed a 2016 amendment to Lisa Marie’s will that excised Priscilla as trustee of the estate.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Attorneys for Priscilla said she only became aware of the amendment after\u00a0the death of her daughter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The amendment removed Priscilla and Lisa Marie’s former business manager Barry Siegel, and replaced them with Lisa Marie’s children Riley and Benjamin Keough.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Benjamin died in 2020\u00a0after shooting himself dead in the family’s mansion, with sources revealing he had been struggling at the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
