There was something undeniably special between Priscilla Presley and Elvis Presley, and even though their marriage didn’t last, the love they had for one another certainly stood the test of time. Given this, it’s no surprise that Priscilla was left completely devastated when Elvis died in 1977. “It was just too hard to believe,” she told Hoda Kotb on “Today” in 2018.
In an interview with ET in early 2023, Priscilla remembered receiving a call from Elvis’ road manager Joe Esposito, who delivered the tragic news. “It was like waking up from a nightmare, hoping to wake up and say, ‘This is a joke,'” she recalled. The time that followed proved to be very challenging for the actor. “I felt emptiness for months after that,” she told ET.
These days, Elvis is never too far from Priscilla’s mind, even more than 40 years after his death. “I truly cherish the great times. As you grow up, there are always fears and insecurities, but as you get older you understand it all,” she told People magazine in 2021. It’s clear that Priscilla’s bond with Elvis was unbreakable, even after their split due to “mutual infidelity,” according to Men’s Health.
