Elvis Presley’s legacy may extend even further than previously thought, as new allegations suggest he could have a secret great-grandchild. Recent legal documents have revealed claims surrounding Lisa Marie Presley’s involvement in the conception of John Travolta and Kelly Preston’s son, Ben, igniting speculation about the dynamics within the Presley family.
The astonishing claims come from Priscilla Presley’s former business associates, Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko, who included these details in their $50 million breach of contract lawsuit against Lisa Marie’s son, Navarone Garibaldi Garcia. The lawsuit, filed on December 16, highlights the rush for control over Lisa Marie’s estate following her passing at the age of 54 in 2023.
According to the complaint, Michael Lockwood, Lisa Marie’s ex-husband and the father of her twins, alleged that Travolta and Preston had previously sought Lisa Marie’s eggs to aid in their attempts to conceive due to Preston’s challenges with fertility. However, Lockwood also claimed that after experiencing significant personal losses, the Travoltas reconsidered their decision to use Lisa Marie’s eggs. Instead, they reportedly turned to her daughter, Riley Keough, who allegedly donated her eggs for the same purpose.
The documentation further highlights the complex relationship between the families, suggesting that the arrangement was contingent upon input from the Church of Scientology, which has historically influenced the lives of its members, including Travolta and the Presleys.
Lockwood claimed that the Travoltas presented Riley with financial compensation and a luxury car as part of the arrangement, with amounts reportedly ranging between $10,000 and $20,000. This negotiation reflects the intricate intertwining of personal relationships and business dealings within the Presley family.
Despite these dramatic claims, Priscilla Presley has firmly denied all accusations against her, labeling them as shameful and unfounded. Her attorney has stressed that the legal actions against her are part of a larger attempt to exploit the family’s history for personal gain.
The revelations come amid ongoing tensions within the Presley family, as Garcia reportedly expressed strong objections to the involvement of Riley or the Travolta family being mentioned in relation to the ongoing legal battles. This internal strife illustrates the far-reaching implications of Lisa Marie’s passing and the subsequent scramble for her legacy.
The case highlights the complicated nature of family dynamics, personal histories, and the ongoing search for truth within a storied family. As the legal situation unfolds, the potential for reconciliation and understanding among the parties involved remains uncertain. The uncovering of these allegations adds another layer to the already intricate narrative surrounding Elvis Presley’s descendants and their enduring impact on popular culture.
