After her son Benjamin passed away, Lisa Marie Presley kept his body on dry ice for two months for a very heartbreaking reason. Just under four years had gone since the terrible suicide death of her son Benjamin Keough, when Lisa Marie, 54, passed away in January 2023.
Lisa Marie, the sole child of Elvis Presley, departed from her twin children, Harper and Finley Lockwood, who are 16 years old, and her daughter Riley Keough, who is a star of Daisy Jones & The Six. Riley finished a book she had written, From Here to the Great Unknown, and it was published on October 8 following her death.
In her memoir, Lisa Marie discussed Benjamin’s sudden passing in 2020 and disclosed that she had held his body for two months before burying him in a casita bedroom. As she had explained to her father, Elvis Presley, “there is no law in California that requires someone to be buried immediately,” and she felt it was important to give Benjamin the time she needed to say goodbye.
Lisa Marie was just nine years old when Elvis passed away, so having his body at home and being able to visit and talk with him had been consoling. Throughout that time, she kept Benjamin’s remains at 55 degrees while debating whether to bury him in Graceland or Hawaii.
She acknowledged in the biography, “I became so accustomed to him being there, taking care of him… I was grateful that I could continue to raise him until I was ready to say goodbye, even if it was only for a short while longer.
op Icon Cher Drops Bombshell: Will She Really Leave America If Trump Wins
Cher is ready to leave the U.S. if Donald Trump becomes president again in 2024.
The famous singer made this strong statement during an interview with *The Guardian*
“I almost got an ulcer the last time,” Cher said. “If he wins, who knows? This time, I will leave [the country].”
During Trump’s presidency, he removed protections for LGBTQ people that helped prevent discrimination.
The “Believe” singer also spoke openly about the fight for trans rights and the many bills targeting the LGBTQ community.
“There are about 500 bills they’re trying to pass,” Cher said. “I was with two trans girls the other night – and of course, my own child [Chaz is trans]. I told them, ‘We have to stick together.’ I don’t know what their plan is for trans people. I wouldn’t be surprised by anything.”
This isn’t the first time Cher has shared her thoughts on Trump. When he became president in 2020, she said, “I hate to even call him a president because all he does is watch TV.”
Cher also predicted that Trump would have a meltdown if he lost the reelection.
“If Trump can’t stay in the White House, he’s going to burn it down,” she said. “He’s the most vindictive person I’ve ever seen. I think he’s fighting so hard because he knows he’ll be prosecuted when he leaves the White House.”
