LISA MARIE PRESLEY - PRESLEY THANKS FANS

LATEST: Pregnant LISA MARIE PRESLEY has thanked fans for their support throughout her battle with a newspaper, which picked on her plus-size figure. The rocker was forced to reveal she is expecting a child with husband Michael Lockwood after a British publication printed unflattering images of her, suggesting she was "growing like her dad," Elvis, who piled on weight in the years before he died in 1977. The expectant mother is now suing the publication, and has logged onto her MySpace.com page to thank fans for helping her through the tough times. Presley, 40, says, "Your overwhelming support has not gone unnoticed. It has been heartwarming to see. It has made me very happy. Thank you. Much Love and respect, LMP."
