How Linda Thompson found out about Elvis Presley's death: "I have chill bumps thinking about it now"

[@adrianchupp1858]

Elvis sure left the world in tears...

[@Elvis_Pond5]

I knew Lisa Marie Presley for many years and I was with her during her last days.

[@НинаКурасова-ъ7у]

Очень жалко Элвиса и Лизу Мари! Линда одна из немногих, кто реально заботился об Элвисе. Ее любила Лиза Мари, а дети чувствуют хороших людей. Но не следует забывать о тяжелых хронических заболеваниях Элвиса, отсюда и горы лекарств. А потом уже зависимость от них.

[@1kaffelover]

I read somewhere That it was actually Linda Thompson’s brother who called Linda and then let Lisa speak with her about her father’s passing. Does anybody else recall that?

[@ЛарисаМ-ц8я]

Как это печально.У ребенка отпечаталась в голове эта трагедия до конца её жизни.Как же так получилось, что никто не смог его переубедить от зависимости таблеток.?Понятно ,что он был взрослый человек и авторитет.Но ради его будущего ,ради будущего его дочери можно ведь было с ним достойно поговорить.Светлая вам память Величайший Талант.Покойтесь в Раю Элвис Пресли.❤Вы лучшее ,что нам оставил 20 Век!Спасибо за ваш голос ,за щедрость !!Москва .Россия.12 сентября.

[@НинаКурасова-ъ7у]

Возможно, только его мама была для него авторитетом, но её не было рядом. И кроме того, он был реально серьёзно болен,отсюда и горы таблеток. Вина врачей, которые ему это прописывали в таких количествах.

[@patpargeter6050]

Lisa DID NOT call Linda. Her brother Sam, called her. Then he saw Lisa walk across the hallway, and handed Lisa the phone. Sam's words....

[@ElvisNewsExaminer]

Interesting! Did he say this in a book? I would be interested to find proof that he said this...

[@mariabarber61]

Priscillia you knew what Elvis was like before you married him so didnt houleave then. My question is why didnt you raise the issue whenit was happening and not 46 years after his death .have you throught what impact this could have on your grandchildren

[@annamariafacchiano1688]

Is it not strange that Lisa felt the need to call LInda instead of her mother? What do you think?

[@ElvisNewsExaminer]

Yes, I was wondering that also! I'm not sure who called Priscilla - she doesn't say in her book - but it was probably Vernon or one of the guys. But it sounds like Lisa and Linda became very close since they spent so much time together at Graceland.

[@ginadee4142]

Her mother didn't 💘 her, just her money trust. That's why she got so close to Linda. She needed that mother's love, which she never got. And she knew Linda, loved her father.

[@jultolentino7515]

Yes right sad

[@christakulikowski7567]

Her mother is egocentric, did not care for other people. Lisa Marie was deeply loved by her daddy. So glad that she was very much her father in looks and character. Love you both - you goodhearted darlings. Miss you always.

[@joannemcclure3546]

Priscilla never loved her daughter. She put other men before her and put her into that despicable cult Scientology. However, I’m kind of sick and tired of Linda because she makes herself out to be such a saint. She and Priscilla both act like that. The fact is Elvis didn’t want to marry her, he didn’t want to marry Linda nor Priscilla. Priscilla never loved him, and he grew tired of Linda. Obviously he wanted to marry Ginger, he had her engagement ring made with the diamond from his own ring. And was planning their wedding. Lisa Marie also liked Ginger and Elvis wanted custody of Lisa Marie when he and Ginger married.

[@zekerivers5189]

Elvis Was Lucky to Have Her in His Life !! And should have taken ten steps back and realize what he had with Linda and on every other level and just a footnote I personally have not seen the movie nor would I want to another thing is when she said her brother said she needed to come back to Memphis Joe Esposito said that there was seat for her on the Lisa Marie and Priscilla would not fly with her after she took such good care of Lisa shows what a nice person Priscilla is

Did Linda and Jerry cross paths at E week 2023?

[@ElvisNewsExaminer]

Yes, they were both there and did a few interviews together. You can watch more about what happened at Elvis Week 2023 in my August 2023 news report: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKuVkKWea72Gadk

Who Was PRINCESS LISA MARIE PRESLEY MOTHER Oh 😳 Yea Priscilla 😧 LINDA Wooda BEEN A BETTER MOTHER THEN priscilla 🤔 THANK YOU VERY MUCH ✨💖

[@patpargeter6050]

Linda, was only in it for the money. Same as the EX-WIFE

[@julies.3327]

Sure, Elvis was flawed, we all have our flaws. Just like, each of us, has our one special gift. Linda has a great gift for loving and caring. She truly loved Elvis with all of her heart. She also, did love Lisa Marie too, by what she said about her in this interview. Losing Elvis was very hard for her, and she and Lisa Marie, were able to comfort each other by phone. Though Elvis and Linda didn't stay together, because of Elvis's infidelities and his drug problem, I do think that maybe Elvis could've survived the day he died had she been there to care. However, it wasn't meant to be, and Elvis did pass unfortunately on August 16th. Elvis was a man with a caring heart, and a giving nature, he was romantic and capable of so much love. He just didn't meet his one true love, in his lifetime, which was sad. I think Linda could've been his one true love, had they stayed together, because she and Elvis were a lot alike in heart and soul. They could've been soul mates.

[@patpargeter6050]

She used to give him injections as well. So she wasn't much help to him

[@julies.3327]

@@patpargeter6050 She never gave Elvis injections of drugs. You are very wrong.

[@patpargeter6050]

@julies.3327 check the facts. She used to give the injections in his butt, as well as David Stanley. Its out there if you check. She says she didn't like doing it, but she still did it.

[@julies.3327]

@@patpargeter6050 If Linda gave Elvis shots, I'm sure it was some sort of medicine for one of his health issues, I don't think it was drugs to make him high. Elvis had multiple health problems and shots can be administered for different health conditions.

[@patpargeter6050]

@julies.3327 it was stated she would inject 3 or 4 times a night. With either Demoral or Dilaudid, if thats how to spell it. That stuff is not used in the UK....It was stated by Marty Lacker who said it was injected into his hip. And he was like a pin cushion.

[@CLASSICRED123]

She lied.

[@ΒΑΣΙΛΙΚΗΜοσχου-φ1ο]

I don't believe a single word. Not just her, 😊😊but anybody providing fans with these supposedly true stories from Elvis's life. Moreover, what child in such a devastating moment would call anyone but their mother, no matter how they felt about her!? And besides, with so many people around, I can't imagine a child calling anybody to announce their parent's death. This is a huuuge exaggeration... Why hasn't she told this story before in all these years and while Lisa was still a life!?

[@anY-bf9ud]

Lisa,didn't call Linda, Linda,s brother Sam who worked for Elvis rang Linda, Linda,asked where was Lisa and Sam put Lisa,on the phone. Linda has told this story for years, and I think it was Priscilla who should have spoken to Lisa about her daddy rather than Linda, Priscilla hadn't yet arrived at Graceland , shecwas on her way as Joe had rang her to tell her the sad news.

[@anY-bf9ud]

@ighanchks3500 Linda,s brother Sam, said in an interview he rang Linda, and then put Lisa on . Lisa,didn't ring Linda,! Joe rang Priscilla, to her tell.
