Michael Jackson’s sister has shared a loving tribute for Lisa Marie Presley following her death at the age of 54.
The heartbreaking news came after she was rushed to hospital following a cardiac arrest on Thursday, with her mother Priscilla Presley later announcing her death.
Tributes have poured in for Presley, who was the only child of Elvis Presley, with La Toya Jackson fondly remembering her former sister-in-law.
Sharing a video montage of pictures taken throughout Presley’s life, La Toya, 66, added her late brother’s song You Are Not Alone in the background.
The snaps included Presley with her father – who died in 1977 – and her strolling hand-in-hand with ex-husband Jackson, who died in 2009.
American singer La Toya wrote in her caption: ‘We miss you Lisa! You will forever be in our hearts, I will never forget how much you shared the love you had for my brother with me!’
She concluded: ‘I thank you for being so honest, courageous and explicit with your love.’
La Toya added in a series of hashtags that Presley was ‘gone too soon’ and that she and Jackson were now ‘together again.’
Fans poured their hearts out and sent condolences in the comments, with one writing: ‘May they reunite together in the afterlife… RIP Lisa Marie’.

Another commented: ‘She is finally at rest with her son, her father and Michael! I know Michael was there waiting for her ! It’s the only comfort I have 😢❤️’
‘Lisa Marie was the last living expression of Elvis, a very beautiful woman, rest in peace 🙏💐🌈Amazing tribute, you are a wonderfully sensitive woman La Toya’, commented another.
Presley married the Smooth Criminal hitmaker in 1994, the year she got divorced from first husband Danny Keough, with whom she shared two kids: Riley and Benjamin.

Her relationship with the star was, understandably, high-profile, with many even claiming their romance was merely a PR stunt to detract from allegations that Jackson had molested a 13-year-old body, but Presley denied this.
‘I’m not going to marry somebody for any reason other than the fact that I fall in love with them,’ she said at the time.
After eloping to the Dominican Republic, the couple split after two years.

Presley later married Nicolas Cage in 2002, which only lasted three months.
Her fourth husband was American guitarist and producer Michael Lockwood and they shared two children: twins Harper Vivienne Anne and Finley Aaron Love, who are now 14.
Alas, after 10 years, they Presley filed for divorce.
