After the passing of her son, I think she lost all will to live but tried her best to be strong for her daughters. A truly heartbreaking ending for Lisa Marie. Thank you Dr. Grande for this look into her life and the difficulties of growing up in the shadow of her father.

I lost my daughter to the same as Benjamin, the same year and roughly same age, you do lose the will to live in the days/weeks that follow one’s child taking their own life, you do have to keep living for your existing kids (I had 5 more kids) I fear in lisa-Marie’s case, she already had so many things she was dealing with since childhood she just couldn’t do it anymore.. her heart gave out. I’ve had a mini stroke and heart pulpitsions due to my loss.. it wouldn’t surprise me if all her grief and pain (and the drugs) took its toll on her precious heart.. rip lisa-Marie, us mothers are often called survivors of child-suicide, lisa-Marie didn’t survive. Bless her heart.

[@cassiemontgomery45]

I've been thinking of Lisa Marie Presley lately due to the news of her death. It would seem she won the life lottery, but I think her life was more of a curse than anything. She went through a lot; her father's early death, the suicide of her son Benjamin, her own health and addiction struggles, and her dissolved marriages. I always admired her "edgy elegance ", her fashion sense, and her tenacity. I hope she finds the peace that eluded her in life.

Sad. When I read that she hit rock bottom with drugs and then "walked into the church OF SCIENTOLOGY and said "help me," I realized this girl never knew a normal life. She said it as if it were a normal church or a mental health clinic. Celebs live in totally detached fantasy worlds which can be good or deadly depending on their ability to handle wealth/fame. Addiction truly is a heritable disease to a large extent & I'm sure losing her son put it over the edge (like Anna Nicole).

Seeing her father dead on the bathroom floor had to have left a trauma that she never got over. When my husband was nine, he was taking a bath when his father came into the bathroom, collapsed and died, blocking the exit. It left a deep trauma.

[@sharonjensen3016]

Whatever age you are when you lose a parent, it's traumatic. I was almost 50 in 2021 when I saw my dad lying on the ground surrounded by paramedics who tried to revive him, but unfortunately couldn't. "Don't you leave us, Dad! Come back!" I was saying. But he was already gone. Died suddenly. He had been fine that morning, talking about how his eldest grandsons were turning eight the next week. He was looking forward to celebrating their birthday. His death hit the three older grandchildren hard (they were almost eight and five), but the two youngest, three and almost two, didn't understand why Granddad wasn't there anymore. "He's in a special place" they were told. At least none of them were there when it happened. The older boys would have said: "Something's wrong with Granddad!" The younger boys would have said: "Granddad's fallen down! He won't get up!"

[@grumpyoldlady_rants]

@@sharonjensen3016 - I’m so sorry. I lost both of my parents in my late 40s. My mom’s was kind of sudden ( stroke after surgery - she lingered for about a week) but my dad had a form of dementia that left him in an infantile state for several years before he passed.

[@inproper3952]

The suicide of her young son Ben didn't help her state of mind either. She had a tragic life right in front of her eyes. Also it appears depression ran in her families history, her Grandmother Gladys always appeared sad and depressed in her photos plus she was an alcoholic. So all these issues ran in her family however it's tragic for her remaining young daughters, now they have no mother and Priscilla is 77 yrs old now, I am heartbroken for Lisa's girls and her Mother.

[@JAMAICADOCK]

With a living legend rock god for a father, and a Scientologist for a mother, Michael Jackson and Nick Cage for husbands, really amazed she lasted as long as she did. The horrible thing you do when you spoil children, is create a false reality. They hit the real world and either become depressed or narcissistic. In Lisa Marie's case, she was the former, depressed that her life peaked at 9 years old. The fairy-tale suddenly became a gilded cage, from which she never really escaped.

I know. Why music? She had so many other "artsy" things to do. I think she made a fool of herself on stage. She looked like a wanna be rebel. Her voice was so auto tuned, it disturbed me. The song writing was immature & dull & depressing. Who wants to hear a millionaire brat ranting about about life for? Lisa was NOt down to earth nor kind or giving like her father.

[@dammar117]

They have their whole lives ahead of them. It's a terrible loss, but hers, losing her son, was much worse. As sad as it is, watching their mother in constant agony could not be good for them. I speak from family experience. A mother never recovers from losing a child, and has little reason to try to when the best of her life is behind her anyways.

[@christinehaley8097]

Her youngest children are barely in their teens! This is going to be very hard.

[@dammar117]

@@christinehaley8097 Of course, it's going to be hard. But what about watching their mother suffer every day? She is finally at peace now. When they go through life and have children of their own, they will understand the pain their mother went through and how brave she was to stick around for them for nearly 3 years. See it this way: their mother could have killed herself after losing her son, when they were 11. Instead, she kept going for her girls for 3 years, saw them into adolescence, and died from cardiac arrest. She gave them a gift, but everybody is only seeing the negative side.

[@eringemini7091]

You're the first I've seen to even mention Lisa's drug use in her story. I think her Grandmother, & Father had heart disease which she may have inherited. From all I have heard, using drugs, especially Cocaine (which was rumored to be her favorite), did nothing to improve the heart disease symptoms. In August at her Father's birthday celebration at Graceland she had to be helped down the stage stairs.. At the Golden globes ceremony she seemed out of breath, pale & weak. Maybe this was when she should have been hospitalized.

August was when he died. January 8th is his birthday. She was just at Graceland on the 8th last week.

I own all her albums and absolutely loved them all, she spoke to a lot of the anger and hurt those of us in our 20s during the 2000s felt. When I was a lil kid due to my mom being a fan I was a fan of her fathers music as well, but honestly given a choice between her music and her fathers I much preferred her music. She had talent, she was more talented than the pop stars out during that time and today in that she personally wrote nearly all the lyrics and melody on her albums, which is something her father never got into he only sung and played a lil guitar. She was still young, I think it really broke her heart losing her son to suicide in the summer of 2020 and she never fully got over it even thou she still had three children to keep living for. I also think there's just something in Elvis' family line going back to his mother, himself and even his father all died really young. It's sad all around, I hope when Lisa passed that her father and son were there at heaven's gates to welcome her home to eternal peace. My thoughts and prayers to her mother and daughters.
