Fans of Lisa Marie Presley have been paying tribute to the late star with flowers and signs, following her death aged 54.
Presley – the only daughter of rock and roll singer Elvis Presley – was rushed to hospital earlier this week in cardiac arrest.
Later on, her mother, Priscilla, confirmed the heartbreaking news that she had died, with it since being revealed that she suffered a second cardiac arrest and was pronounced brain dead after her admission to Los Angeles hospital.
It has also been shared that Presley will be buried at her birthplace, Graceland, next to her son Benjamin Keough, who died by suicide in 2020 at the age of 27.
Her resting place is a mansion on a 13.8-acre estate in Memphis, Tennessee, which was once owned by her famous father, before she inherited it when he died. She was just nine at the time.
Now, the sprawling estate will be split between Presley’s 14-year-old twins Harper Vivienne and Finley, and her actress daughter Riley Keough.

They also used chalk and marker pens to write personalised messages on the paving flags and wall outside, weaving their own posters and banners into the railings.
‘RIP Lisa Marie, kiss your daddy for me,’ one read.
