Priscilla Presley broke down crying as she revealed that her late daughter Lisa Marie Presley was "suicidal" for months ahead of her tragic death.

In her upcoming guest appearance on TalkTV with Piers Morgan this week, the 78-year-old star broke down as she opened up about the months leading up to her daughter's death this year. Lisa was 54 years old when she died in January due to a small bowel obstruction caused by previous weight-loss surgery, with opioids later discovered in her system at the time of her death.

Recalling the heartbreaking day, Priscilla said: "It was unbearable. I lost my mother, my grandson and my daughter," and continued: "Losing Ben was the hardest thing for her, he took his own life, he was the love of her life. She adored him, she would do anything for him."

Ben - legally Benjamin Keough - was Lisa's son and Elvis and Priscilla's grandson who died by suicide in 2020. She said that before the day of her daughter's passing, she remembered Lisa opening up about how she was having suicidal thoughts following the death of her son. She said: "We were sitting in Memphis in the suit, she said I don't know if I want to be here. She would go on about Ben and how she was still grieving, this was a couple of months."

The last public appearance that Lisa attended was the Golden Globe Awards alongside her mother Priscilla. The pair went to the award show to support Austin Butler as he was honored for his role in the movie Elvis, a story detailing the life of Priscilla's famous late husband. In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, the former actress opened up about her last sweet memory with her daughter.

Priscilla told the news outlet: "We had just gotten there, you go down all these stairs. I tripped a little bit because I had these high heels on, and she started laughing so hard. I started laughing. We hadn’t even had a drink yet." She continued: "'She goes, 'Oh my God, Mom, you can’t even have a drink.' … It was fun, a fun memory. Then we sat down and ordered drinks, and she says, 'Mom, my stomach hurts really bad.' We immediately got up and left.”

Just two days later Lisa's ex-husband Danny Keough called her to tell her that her daughter had collapsed at home and was in the hospital. After immediately rushing to see her daughter after receiving the call, she said: "I got right in the car, but she was already gone. I still can't believe it. I don’t wish this on any mother."
