Elvis' family secrets were hidden in his DNA, but he never knew

Discover the untold story of Elvis Presley's childhood! From his stillborn twin brother Jesse Garon to his family's struggles during the Great Depression, learn about the challenges Elvis faced growing up in Tupelo, Mississippi. With a strong and protective mother, Gladys, and a loving but troubled father, Vernon, Elvis learned the importance of respect, hard work, and kindness. Watch to uncover the fascinating details of Elvis' early life and how it shaped the King of Rock 'n' Roll.

[@BrendaBooher-hw4mf]

The depression was a hard time for the Presley's and many families. Thank God that Vernon moved them to Memphis. It was the perfect place for Elvis to start his career. From the day Elvis walked into Sun Recording Studio Elvis only wanted to be able to take care of his parents. I think that people made up a lot of things about Elvis and his family. I think that Elvis had wonderful parents. Elvis was a true gift to the world. He became an icon and true legend and was able to make sure that his parents had no more financial hardships. I don't think that Elvis was meant to grow old. God Bless Him.

Agreed.

My Dad died at the age of 49. I can't imagine how Lisa Marie felt, but I know how I felt. I pray Elvis is in peace now.Lisa Marie we won't forget you. 🙏🙏🙏✝️🙏🙏🙏

[@merrittmontgomery7695]

Elvis’ Mom was Gladys not Annie.

[@mamoros56]

Or Azaelia!

[@SherryDyck]

I'm a kid of the 60s so I grew up with Elvis. I know exactly where I was the moment I heard the devastating news he died. On another note, my moms parents (my grandparents) were first cousins. There were no anomalies in their family of 7 or any other offspring except that I conceived naturally triplets when there were no other multiples in the entire family. Btw, my mom's name was also Gladys

[@nacona5114]

The King no matter what!

[@helenmacias9769]

Elvis looked a lot like Gladys in this picture of her. She raised him work love and instilled in him goodness to all. I'm happy they are together again Gladys Elvis and Vernon .

[@WillieMaeLedoux]

now I understand why Elvis Presley gave all the time to people with all my love to Elvis Presley's family and God bless ❤❤❤❤

[@RebeccaLesher-db4gt]

That darling little boy resembles Elvis Presley......., but people that is not him. Sorry!

[@Dee.C]

There is a mention of 3 different women;s names for Elvis's mother . Someone needs to do some fact checking and proof read what they are going to post.

[@robbiejenkins4379]

Yes exactly I also noticed that 3 different names Elvis's mother.

[@susieq1642]

her family is from Pontotoc Mississippi, not Tupelo.

[@karebear9374]

I agree. This video is full of lies. Seriously, there's never nor is there proof they were related.

Our neighbor taught us kids to walk to school together. It was more than a mile.

❤Elvis

[@jstarzz3780]

They started out with nothing But ended up on top 🎩 of the world 🌍 because of their faith 🙏 in God and great family support 🙏💓

[@toodlescae]

Unfortunately due to a few different books and an article by a doctor Elvis did have a genetic abnormality and other health issues passed down from his mother's family. The genetic abnormality hyperextended his joibts which is why he could move like he did. However it also caused him to experience a lot of pain as he aged. Then there was the glaucoma and heart disease. That's why he was on so many rxs including pain pills on top of the uppers and downers he was prescribed to keep him going with the grueling schedule he maintained.

[@jstarzz3780]

Amazing 😍 thing's WE never knew about The King 👑🙏

[@edwardgrenke6417]

Good story! Sounds like my dad's story.

Much Love to Elvis Always, Our Most Favorite Entertainer with Frank Sinatra Always!!!

[@franksantucci3038]

In the early 70s, the powers that be had a contest to determine the best male singer-voice of the 20th century. It came down to two, Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley. When Sinatra was accepting his award, live on stage and televised, he graciously thanked everyone then said that they were all full of it, and that Tony Bennett was the best. True story. My deceased Mother would disagree with all of them, and say Perry Como was the best of all time, not just the 20th century...

[@susieq1642]

that is why i hate that after 4 cousin were not related B.S. were still related we all go to the same family reunion still. they bad about that in the South.

[@user-ph5hv1ry2t]

Interesting may investigate little but I hope they dont mind . Thanks for really nice videos about royal history and their lifes. Thanks❤

[@desleybettens5356]

How many times does the narrater need to repeat the information (some of which is conflicting).

[@user-ug5pf3iu3l]

We know who Elvis' parent's are. You don't have to keep saying their name's.

[@jeanetteschwarz8393]

1st cousin parents does not always equal miscarriage, poor health, and early death. My great grands were 1st cousins and had a large healthy family. My grandmother was very ashamed and hid it from her children.

[@surlif]

I wonder what Orville Bean thought when Elvis became rich and famous.

[@Miss_Sippy]

Not so sure about the family tree but I do know Elvis was AB neg. My guess is his Mom was also Neg blood-type and his Dad Pos. Most likely, Elvis got his Mom's Neg and his twin hot Pos. Most Pos babes don't make it and/or the mom doesn't. This is because RH negative females are not to be pregnant with Pos blood. No Negative blood can ever take Positive. My guess too is that Elvis and his brother were fraternal...not identical. Many AB's for some reason tend to have one set of twins. One makes it. One don't or both live or expire. It's all about the blood mix.

[@dorisbrinkerhoff8124]

Elvis and Bob sure sound like the same guy

[@elvispresleysgirl4811]

NO !! 🙈🙄

[@SarahBunch-mz8wi]

I had conversation 2 months ago. Bob Joyce. I asked him if he was not Elvis why does he sing like him. No comment.

[@elvispresleysgirl4811]

@@SarahBunch-mz8wi That says it all !! When you ask him about it, he feels cornered. But he keeps going and makes people think he could be Elvis. Bob Joyce is such a sick guy!! 🙄🫤

I had chat with him and says he is not. I asked why do you go the the extremes to sound like. El.

[@SarahBunch-mz8wi]

@@elvispresleysgirl4811 well thing is he was not in that casket. Wax figure younger. I saw his last performance in BATON ROUGE HE WAS OVERWEIGHT AND ONE MONTH BEFORE HIS DEATH.

THAT LIFE STYLE WAS DEMANDING TIRING COULD NOT FUNCTION AND LIVE A NORMAL LIFE. HE NEVER HAD THAT. SHOULD HAVE NEVER MARRIED GREEDY PRISCILLA. TOOK MONEY FROM HER GRANDCHILDREN.

[@stephenkennett6524]

Well for starters Elvis was actually blonde headed

[@sabrinanascimento5248]

Yea that’s why he looked like his mother.

[@jstarzz3780]

My Lord 😲🙏

[@H8L920]

Elvis was 2 generations removed from his grandparents cousin marriage. I have questioned that book by Sally Hodel since I read it a few years ago. She also is not a medical person.

[@dianeearl9526]

Possible rh o- only mix with it's own.

[@PaulaakaPaben]

Well guess what, If we go back far enough all the Viking Kings and Queens have Family Mary Siblings, Cousins Nieces etc. All the Kings in Every Country are from the Same Family lines! My Dad's Parents were Germans from the Ukraine, they were 1st Cousins, and Had 14 Healthy children! Matter of Fact I am related to Elvis about 10th Cousins! Yes it is not good to Marry close relatives, but not always do one twin not survive because of these reasons, since Elvis was Healthy!

[@jaslady22]

Me too (10th cousins to Elvis), we could be related therefore!

[@spmoran4703]

I think poverty as much to do with Elvis early story . Plus , at that time marrying cousin in the Southern USA was not uncommon ..

[@charmainehensley1094]

Plus this man went to see Lisa Marie Presley

[@toniwatkins4483]

Yes he did and he was black ❤

[@maryannweldin4633]

He was malugioen white black and Native American.

[@franksantucci3038]

Elvis was tri racial ? Right, and his great great Grandpappy's Father sailed over with Columbus...

[@sabrinanascimento5248]

That why God didn’t want people to marry relatives.

[@goddessravenlovelife7452]

I just thought of something. That old guy that people claim was Elvis what if that twin survived and was stolen or given to another family because they were so poor? It could be possible

[@belindawilson1350]

He died .Still born or died soon after birth. My Mother told me that as a child.He was her idol. Also fun fact😢I am of Viking decent from two different clanns. Was born with an auto -immune disorder. Out of 6 babies two survived. One baby survived his twin brother. My daughter has surviving twins out of 4 babies.Both my children suffer an auto-immune disease. Our own immune system is basically killing us. That is why the babies died. Rheumatoid arthritis etc and organ failure in the end.

[@loriobrien7957]

I've thought the same thing

Watch the movie called "The Identical". It will make you think!!? 🤔

There is a lot of symbolism in that film. The camera alway wants us to look at any and all numbers on anything in the film.

[@michellehood1920]

Thankyou

My family were Habsberg, bourbon, d'orleans, romanov, in fact all the royal of Europe and even others like Ramses 111, I am not troubled with anything but autism deafness and back issues, oh and depression I guess we are all different but Elvis is also infidelities distantly related, I guess he could be royal descent too ?

[@gothmamasylvia462]

You're ignoring that Elvis's mother could have been Rh neg, which could be why she had only one child.

[@charmainehensley1094]

Listen people I think Elvis is alive there is a guy on you named Bob the preacher sings just liked Elvis look up the preacher it's amazing

Yep, Larry Hogan thinks he is Elvis too!

U want to see an artist that resembles Elvis? Neil Diamond In his younger days Neil + elvis looked very much alike.(except 4 eye color) Neil was known AS the Jewish Elvis

Which was Elvis' mother's name, then ? Annie, Gladys or Azalia?🤔

Her full birth name was Gladys Love Smith. Full stop.

[@daliamonteiro1008]

Correto 💫⚡️

[@14Aymara]

@@morganeoghmanann9792 - And the author of this video didn't know that...? Not the proper way to tell a supposedly true story.

[@bonitahobbs2374]

Who is that a picture of at the begining, the boy. Are you saying Gladys and Vernon were related .. how? It was known Elvis grandparents were related. Assumptions ? Vernon and Gladys had 2 children not 1 and you almost said that. Vernon was a severe alcoholic and not able to work much and was incarcerated part of the times. A Black older male gentleman taught " the lonely " boy Elvis how to play the guitar!!! Let's not bring up Elvis singing style he over took. I cared about Elvis all of my life and did NOT live far from there. All will Never be known.

[@donnawilliams4922]

Didn't Elvis have another brother that outlived him?

[@lucyrosepetal]

Also Elvis's mother was 42 at death.

[@H8L920]

She was actually 46, she kept her age hidden for years. Elvis did not know how old she was until she died.
