Priscilla Presley is talking happily about her granddaughter, Riley Keough.
Priscilla, who is 78 years old, went to support Riley at the 2023 Emmy Awards. Riley is the daughter of the late Lisa Marie Presley and the oldest grandchild of Elvis. After the award show, Priscilla shared on social media how proud she is of Riley. Riley was nominated for an award at the Emmys.
Priscilla posted a message on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday. She talked about how much she enjoyed being with Riley at the Emmys and called her a talented young woman. She also said she believes Elvis would have been very proud of Riley. ❤️
Priscilla shared a picture from their night out. In the photo, it looks like both of them are happy to be together. They wore matching black outfits from Chanel at the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards.
Riley, who is a Chanel ambassador, wore a stylish outfit from the brand’s Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2023 collection. Priscilla looked chic in a silk blouse and a long black skirt.
They both wore black outfits, reminiscent of Elvis’ classic style. Riley even dyed her hair dark brown, similar to her grandfather’s famous color.
Priscilla and Riley went to the award show together after settling a legal matter related to Lisa Marie’s death. They reached an agreement in May about the late singer’s trust, which was officially approved in November.
