Eighteen months after Lisa Marie Presley died, her Riley Keough is going on a book tour to promote the singer’s upcoming posthumous memoir.
Riley Keough is going on a book tour to promote her mother’s upcoming posthumous memoir.
The actress, 35, was left devastated when her mum Lisa Marie Presley – Elvis Presley’s only child – died on 12 January 2023 aged 54 from a bowel obstruction linked to complications from weight loss surgery years earlier.
She has now announced she will going on the road to mark the release of the ‘From Here to the Great Unknown’ book, which she helped finish after Lisa Marie’s death.
Its publisher Random House said on social media: “Sometimes the most famous among us are the least known. Join @RileyKeough for a one-of-a-kind conversation as she pays tribute to her mother Lisa Marie Presley’s incredible memory with the release of their memoir, ‘FROM HERE TO THE GREAT UNKNOWN’.”
The publisher added Riley will be joined by a special guest in six different cities as she delves into a “legendary tale of American royalty, family ties, the highs and lows of fame, love, grief, and the unbreakable bond between a mother and daughter”.
The book tour is set to start in New York on 9 October and make stops in St Louis, Nashville, London and Memphis – at Elvis’ Graceland estate – before winding up in Los Angeles on 20 October.
The cover of Lisa Marie’s book features an illustration of her as a youth with her father Elvis, who died aged 42 in 1977.
It deals with how Lisa Marie coped with his passing and her experiences with addiction.
Riley used tapes she recorded before her death to finish the autobiography.
She said in a statement about the project: “Few people had the opportunity to know who my mom really was, other than being Elvis’s daughter.
“I was lucky to have had that opportunity and working on preparing her autobiography for publication has been a privilege, albeit a bittersweet one. “I’m so excited to share my mom now, at her most vulnerable and most honest, and in doing so, I do hope that readers come to love my mom as much as I did.”
