See 3 Generations of Elvis Presley’s Family Together at Mad Max Premiere

1 minute read

Three family members of the late rock star Elvis Presley were photographed together at the Hollywood premiere of Mad Max: Fury Road Thursday night at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles.

Priscilla Presley, the 69-year-old former wife of Elvis Presley, and her 47-year-old daughter, singer-songwriter Lisa Marie Presley, were at the event because Lisa Marie’s 25-year-old daughter, Riley Keough, a model and an actress, appears in the film.

“The King of Rock ‘n’ Roll” would have turned 80 this year (on Jan. 8).
