Lisa Marie Presley’s daughter actress Riley Keough opened up about finishing her late mom’s memoir, calling the experience “incredibly painful.”

During an interview with People magazine, the 35-year-old star talked about fulfilling her mom’s last wish by completing Presley’s memoir, “From Here to the Great Unknown.” Lisa Marie died in January 2023 at the age of 54 from complications from prior bariatric surgery.

“Because my mother was Elvis Presley’s daughter, she was constantly talked about, argued over and dissected,” Riley explained.

“What she wanted to do in her memoir, and what I hope I’ve done in finishing it for her, is to go beneath the magazine headline idea of her and reveal the core of who she was,” she added. “To turn her into a three-dimensional human being: the best mother, a wild child, a fierce friend, an underrated artist, frank, funny, traumatized, joyous, grieving, everything that she was throughout her remarkable life.”

“I want to give voice to my mother in a way that eluded her while she was alive,” Riley continued.

The actress said in order to finish her mom’s memoir, she listened to hours and hours of memories her mom had recorded on tapes of her life as the daughter of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, her romantic relationships, motherhood to Riley and her brother Benjamin, who died in 2020 at the age of 27, and later as a grandma to Keough’s daughter, Tupelo.

“The tapes are an incredible portrait of the force of nature that she was,” Riley said. “Depending on the day and her mood, she can sound locked-in or distracted, vulnerable and open or annoyed and closed off, hopeful, angry, everything. You hear her in all her complications.”

“I hope that in an extraordinary circumstance, people relate to a very human experience of love, heartbreak, loss, addiction and family,” she added of the book. “[My mom] wanted to write a book in the hopes that someone could read her story and relate to her, to know that they’re not alone in the world. Her hope with this book was just human connection. So that’s mine.”

Priscilla confirmed Lisa Marie’s death on January 12, hours after she was rushed to a hospital, as previously reported.

“My beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,” a statement from her mother read. “She was the most passionate strong and loving woman I have ever known. We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this profound loss. Thank you for the love and prayers. At this time there will be no further comment.”

“From Here to the Great Unknown,” by Keough and Presley, comes out October 8, the outlet noted.

New York City Democrat Mayor Eric Adams has reportedly been indicted in the federal criminal corruption investigation that has cast a dark cloud over his administration for nearly a year.

The New York Times reported that the indictment remains under seal and it is unclear what charges he faces, but once it’s unsealed, he will be the first NYC mayor to be charged while in office.

“I always knew that If I stood my ground for New Yorkers that I would be a target—and a target I became,” Adams said in a statement. “If I am charged, I am innocent and I will fight this with every ounce of my strength and spirit.”

The investigation had initially centered around whether he conspired with the Turkish government to funnel illegal foreign contributions to his campaign in exchange for actions that he took as mayor. Investigators were also looking at whether he got free flight upgrades from an airline owned by the Turkish government.

The Times reported earlier this week that prosecutors subpoenaed City Hall, Adams, and his campaign two months ago for additional information related to China, Qatar, Uzbekistan, South Korea, and Israel.

The New York Post reported that U.S. Attorney Damian Williams is expected to announce the charges tomorrow when the indictment is unsealed, and sources told the publication that Adams will turn himself in early next week.

“I do not see how Mayor Adams can continue governing New York City,” said far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in a statement earlier in the day.

“The flood of resignations and vacancies are threatening gov function. Nonstop investigations will make it impossible to recruit and retain a qualified administration,” she continued. “For the good of the city, he should resign.”

Adams has seen numerous people in his orbit come under criminal investigation over the last year.

The FBI executed search warrants earlier this month at the home of Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Philip Banks and a home shared by First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright and Schools Chancellor David Banks. Investigators seized phones belonging to then-NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban and Timothy Pearson, a senior adviser to the mayor. A consultant, Terence Banks, brother of Philip Banks and David Banks, was also searched.

The feds raided the home of Adams’ director of Asian Affairs, Winnie Greco, earlier this year as part of a criminal probe run by the Eastern District of New York, the Times said. His former buildings commissioner, Eric Ulrich, faces bribery charges, and several donors to Adams’ campaign have been charged in a straw-donor scheme.

Caban resigned from his post last week and his successor, interim Commissioner Thomas Donlon, was raided by the FBI late last week.
