Lisa Marie Presley’s Cause Of Death Revealed

Lisa Marie Presley died as a result of complications from a small bowel obstruction, according to the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office.

Entertainment site TMZ reported the news on Thursday, citing a document from the L.A. Coroner’s Office that listed “sequelae of small bowel obstruction” as the official cause of death for Presley, 54. A full autopsy and toxicology report has not yet been made public.

Lisa Marie, the only daughter of the late King of Rock’n’Roll Elvis Presley and his wife Priscilla Presley, was pronounced dead in January after suffering a cardiac arrest in her Calabasas home. Paramedics were reportedly able to get a pulse after performing CPR on the scene, but she later died at the hospital.

“It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,” Priscilla Presley said at the time. “She was the most passionate, strong and loving woman I have ever known.”

The family also released a statement on her death, saying, “Priscilla Presley and the Presley family are shocked and devastated by the tragic death of their beloved Lisa Marie. They are profoundly grateful for the support, love and prayers of everyone, and ask for privacy during this very difficult time.”

She had just attended the 2023 Golden Globe Awards two days earlier, watching actor Austin Butler take home the prize for his portrayal of Elvis in the recent biopic.

She left behind her mother, daughter Riley Keough, and twins Harper and Finley Lockwood. Her son Benjamin Keough died by suicide in 2020.

Since Presley’s death earlier this year, her family has been plagued by drama. Her daughter Riley Keough and her mother battled over her estate, resulting in a payout from the estate to Priscilla Presley that was reported to be in the millions.
