Lisa Marie Presley reportedly died following a second cardiac arrest after being rushed to a Los Angeles hospital.
The 54-year-old daughter of rock legend Elvis and Priscilla Presley, 77, died shortly after suffering a ‘cardiac arrest’ on Thursday, with her mother paying tribute to ‘the most passionate, strong and loving woman I have ever known.’
It has now been claimed that the singer-songwriter, who has daughters Riley Keough, 33, 14-year-old twins Finley and Harper Lockwood, and late son Benjamin Keough, died after a second cardiac incident.
It has been reported that Presley was pronounced brain dead after she was admitted to hospital. She was put in an induced coma and placed on life support.
She allegedly later suffered a second cardiac arrest, and was pronounced dead shortly soon after, according to TMZ.
The mother-of-four will be buried at Graceland, her late father’s Tennessee estate, next to her late son, who died by suicide in August 2020 at the age of 27.

A representative for daughter Keough said: ‘Lisa Marie’s final resting place will be at Graceland, next to her beloved son, Ben.’
Presley previously shared her struggle with grief following Ben’s death, in a personal essay penned months before her death.
She wrote: ‘I’ve dealt with death, grief and loss since the age of nine years old. I’ve had more than anyone’s fair share of it in my lifetime and somehow, I’ve made it this far.

‘Death is part of life whether we like it or not — and so is grieving.’
Sharing the ‘devastating’ news of the American star’s death this week, heartbroken mother Priscilla said in a statement: ‘It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us.
‘She was the most passionate, strong and loving woman I have ever known.’
