It is no secret that Lisa Marie Presley’s mother and daughter don’t particularly see eye to eye on very many topics. The family feud started just after Elvis Presley’s daughter died. Priscilla Presley was kicked out of her very own daughter’s trust fund and that did not sit right with her. Instead, Lisa Marie Presley’s two children were now listed as the beneficiaries, including Riley Keough. Priscilla Presley filed a petition protesting the changes thus they have been fighting over it ever since.
John Travolta and Lisa Marie Presley have been close ever since they first met and have been Scientology peers. It is now reported that John Travolta is working behind closed doors tirelessly to bring back peace to the family and solve the issue regarding the $35 million trust at once.
Priscilla Presley vs Riley Keough
Although the late star singer’s daughter, Lisa Marie Presley died with $3-4 million in debt, her life insurances are what her family is after. Her mother and her daughter to be precise. The rivalry began when the mother filed a petition doubting the “authenticity and validity” of her daughter’s trust which was made in 2016 without her knowledge.
Riley Keough and Benjamin Keough, her two children were now listed as the new beneficiaries. The change flustered her as it meant Keough would have full control over the late singer’s estates since Benjamin Keough died in 2020. And subsequently, Presley would lose all her power. Marie Presley’s inner circle confirmed,
“Lisa wanted Riley and Ben to be the trustees”
According to Radar Online, Riley Keough is extremely upset with her grandmother’s “cruel” behavior. Consequently, the family has torn apart after the singer’s death and John Travolta could not let that happen.
John Travolta is keeping his promise
As time passes the Presley family is continuously falling apart. John Travolta and Lisa Marie Presley have been good friends to each other since the first day they met. Travolta also introduced her to a new way of life, which Presley will then live by for the rest of her life. Therefore, both of them are very special to each other, and thus Travolta could not let her down after her passing.
According to the sources close to the people involved,
“John has been a part of the family for going on 50 years and he wants to be a peacemaker,–Lisa Marie’s death was tragic enough without having it tear the family apart!”
The Pulp Fiction star was also linked with Lisa Marie Presley romantically but the rumors died down as soon as they started. Therefore, after all these years this is his of being just a good friend and honoring his long-lost pal.
