I hate that she's having to go through this all over again so soon after with her mother - losing your brother AND your mother in the span of 2 years is just too much for anyone. I truly hope she'll be ok through this, as painful as it is and is going to be.
I can't believe this. I was literally just watching this interview 2 weeks ago. I was thinking how brave Riley is on learning to move forward with the loss of he brother. Now I just found out Lisa Marie has passed away. It gives me chills when these things happen. I can't imagine what Riley and her family are going through. Rest In Peace sweet Lisa Marie
When your mother dies it is so hard, but I can’t even imagine a death of your child!! The pain and anguish. It just makes me sick to think of that. I will be praying for that family. May they find peace knowing one day they will be together again
@@lauraruth6358 yes, agree. This is a Bible promise🙏🏽❤️John 11:25, Psalm 37:29, Revelation 21:3-5. I'm grateful to know this🙏🏽 She suffered so many losses and now she loses her own life😥 Only the Bible explains why 🌹
This was an interview from a year ago. Do you seriously think that she would be interviewed before even her mother is buried? Please people use your God-given brains!
@@sv8156 use YOUR brain because they didn’t say that
Lisa Marie did a fantastic job raising Riley. Great actress & seems like a really grounded human being.
The nanny’s did a great job raising her.
@@val13c59 You got that right.
@@val13c59 I think her dad Danny really spent a lot of time with them too tho.
Priscilla raise x them, mostly. If Lisa wasn't such a difficult daughter to Priscilla then shed have e been more grouñded.
@@SuperLuckao
Take a back seat!
Her and her son were extremely close. They had dinner together EVERY NIGHT!!!
She's a criminally underrated actress and has such a magnetic cool personality. Definitely star material.
Stop being ridiculous and using that word to make you sound hip
Daisy and the Six would be her breakthrough im excited
I agree. Loved her in The Girlfriend Experience.
@@pam0626 she was fabulous in it
If she weren't Elvis' granddaughter, she wouldn't even have a career.
"You have to re-experience everything in grief." Well said. It's profoundly challenging and painful
Amen it’s exhausting
What a woman, she is strong. Yes it was hard for her to talk about it, but she knows that we have to talk about it, to be able to prevent others from taking their life. I didn't know that she was Elvises granddaughter, I have seen her in some movies and she is good at her job. Yes Elvis would have been proud of her for many reasons as he would have been of all of his grandchildren, Benjamin too.
💘💘💘
Aw, when she started to talk about (her brother's) suicide, she took deep breaths, grounded herself, then started rubbing her heart😢Also, she is very articulate and described living in grief in a way I'd never heard before.
That's because she is a scientologist. She has been audited since a toddler. She has had to think and articulate every emotion.
@@kelliintexas3575 Well, for the most part, Riley always seemed intelligent. Not sure if Scientology had something to do with her fluency with speaking, though.
She was itchy!!
@@kelliintexas3575 I don’t think she is a sciencetologist, they all left that years ago.
Ben’s death broke my heart. I had never heard his voice but he really looked EXACTLY like Elvis.
Elvis would be proud of his his oldest granddaughter
He would be devastated to see them with no faith at all & giving all their wealth to Scientology. They didn't know he was depressed because in Scientology Depression is a "mental Disease" and it makes you weak & worthless on L. Ron's bridge.
Scientology has almost bankrupted Lisa Marie.
@@kelliintexas3575 I believe Lisa Marie lives in Sussex or the bottom of England where there is a lot Scientologists. Social Services have been involved with her family, i have zero clue about her lifestyle but it doesn't look good.
It's a shame she is not proud of her grandfather though and if you heard the interview of her you would know what I mean
He would be do proud of his younger sister
Feel so sad for Riley and her family. She seems like such a lovely genuine person. It’s horrible to have so much tragedy in such a sort time. Heartbreaking 💔
All I can say is a I never heard anyone articulate how grief feels, my 23 yr old daughter died 4/13/2017 and I still cannot talk about it. She opened my mind in the weirdest way, I never thought a celebrity could actually touch me the way she did! She knows grief, lived it as a child and adult. Beautiful girl!
Bau bidens name sake congress bill emerged and as of now removed from wikipedia
And the guy he put away as attorney General retracted as well
🙏💔😘
Can i say that i find it really helpful to talk about loss and death in a normal manner. I dont worry what others might think or if it makes them uncomfortable. It actually doesn’t.
Because of this, ive had so many beautiful conversations with so many ppl who are deep and full of substance.
I learnt so much more just now listening to Rielly, and there will be a time when i am able to say the same to others, it might help them understand what they are experiencing... 😢😢 Im so very sorry for your tragic loss, life can be so unfair. ❤❤❤❤❤
@melissagreco, sorry for your loss.
I hope her she she helped you in some way with your grief …..
She's a very underrated actress.
Riley's description of grief is really helpful to me right now. I've never heard it said in such a simple way and one that resonates.
Her perspective hit me in a new way where grief is concerned. It does resonates
Same!!! It's all the first in grief...esp the next morning when u wake up... realizing ur loved one is still dead!! It's not dream, it's real... U kinda relive it over again... Have never heard it put like that!! Really a very wise young lady..
Riley is so eloquent, going to the grocery store in grief resonated so much with me. I couldn't understand how people were going about their day to day business, laughing, talking, when I had experienced such a huge loss. It sounds crazy, but that's how it felt. I hope you feel better ♡
@@witchescauldron yep you feel as though the world should stop turning
@@witchescauldron Yes, this!! It’s a very common thought for all of humankind I feel like, to feel that exact thing, that the world keeps turning, when your world feels like it came to a screeching halt and will never turn in a normal way again. It’s an awful feeling, because I think it makes you feel alone, when you’re not of course, but when you see the world moving on around you when you are in such turmoil inside, it’s very confrontational. It breaks my heart she has just lost her brother and now her mom in such a short period of time. Sending love and light to her and her family, and anyone in the turmoil of grief right now ❤🤍🕊️
She has her mothers laid back, lovable attitude and her grandfathers drive and tenacity.. I love her. I hope she keeps singing.
What a strong woman. Her light through her darkness is extremely inspiring.
I feel so much compassion for Lisa. She lost both of the most important men in her life & in such tragic ways.
And I believe she truly loved MJ too
@@cindyfitzgerald4500 Given that most of her music is about him, she loved him more than people (and he) would ever know. She was devastated after the divorce and gutted after his death. He loved her and her kids. There is footage of all of them on vacation in South Africa and they seemed like a happy family and this was AFTER the divorce. Ben was close to the Jackson kids, especially Rebbie’s son.
@@globalcitizenn and then she lost Ben too. The 3 men she loved so much. I hate when people talk about her drug issues, I can’t imagine living with all the pain and hurt she has and not trying to numb herself. It’s all just very sad
@existentialnausea I agree with your comment, and today, Jan 12, 2023, all the compassion to and for Riley and Priscilla and Lisa Marie’s other children. Sending love, strength and hope and profoundly hope they are getting lifted up from above in love and strength❤🙏🏼🕊️🤍🤍🕊️.
Her spirit is so magnetic. A gem.
Oh man, Riley…my heart breaks for her today allover again. Her brother and now her mom. Sometimes there are no words, I just want her and her family to receive strength from above, and love and more love ❤
I love the fact that she's musical but in her own space and on her own terms. I understand why if she hears Elvis's music she listens but she doesn't purposefully goes and plugs into it. I get how its probably very emotional for her. Elvis would be so proud of her...✨✨✨
She’s also one of the best actresses working right now I definitely see her getting an Oscar soon
@@sarahbowers7885 maybe she wasn't ready to talk about it before now...I am quite certain that growing up for her with ELVIS as her Dad was not as easy as many people think.
@@Julieglam3 Elvis is her grandfather not her dad
@@Julieglam3 not her dad, she never actually met Elvis
@@kevinluongo417 LOL. Is this a wind up?
She explained grief the best I've ever heard it explained. Riley seems to be such an amazing and lovely woman. Her acting is incredibly diverse. Love her!
She remembers her brother with a smile that's moving
She's her mamma's girl!! She looks, laughs, and sounds exactly like Lisa. Beautiful soul!! 💜💜
She looks like her mom, but she resembles more like her dad Danny, good combination of both genes.
Really she sounds like her voice???
@Triple Crown yes I would say that, but she is 💯 mom
Much softer voice, more feminine sounding than lisa
After losing my entire family (parents and siblings) to cancer between the age of 9 to 55 years of age...rarely can I relate to anyone on that level, but this lovely lady is wise beyond her years. She was able to articulate it perfectly. Riley, I'm so sorry for the loss of your beautiful momma.
Immediately thought of this interview after hearing about her mother. I know the death of her brother really took a toll on her, I can't imagine how she's feeling now, so I'm sending so much love to her and her sisters and grandma right now.
Grounded, gracious and gentle.. ..precious Presley genes...she has and will make her late Mother and all her family proud...
Old soul right here ❤️
What a beautiful grounded, no airs and graces young lady. Elvia and her brother must be so proud of her. As we say in Ireland, she’s sound. Just a lovely person
She seems so normal. Not full of herself at all.
Wow not only she is beautiful but very intelligent & articulate!
She seems so grounded here, but now with the loss of her mum too, I will worry and be praying for her.
What a lovely down to earth young woman. Elvis would be proud.
She's endured much heartache in her young life. Her mother and father did right by her, she's strong and was given the freedom to pursue her own dreams.
Elvis would be Very Proud of his granddaughter Riley. God Bless her and her family❤️🙏
I am here watching xxxx
She has her mother's spirit. Seems like a nice, down to earth person.
You know her mother just like most people making a statement about someone you don’t know
@@jacksonjo5045 You are completely right. I don't Know any of them. So that what I commented is my impression of them, not opinion. Impression is based on subjective feelings, opinion on experience and arguments. After getting know somebody well, you sometimes change your impressions, sometimes you confirm them. So...
I’m not a fan of her mother but this girl is great talented and interesting
@@deerheart87 They say talent skips a generation.
@@MsSugar1209
Not in this case!
What a gorgeous person she is. So interesting and cool.
She is sooooooo incredibly grounded. Her parents did a fantastic job given all circumstances. Wow. She seems like a great girl.
Like her mother wrote in her song. My God you're so lovely, yes you are. It fits her
I can't believe this. I was literally watching this interview 2 weeks ago. I was thinking how brave Riley is on learning to move forward with the loss of her brother. Now I just found out Lisa Marie has passed away. It gives me chills when these things happen. I can't imagine what Riley and her family are going through. Rest In Peace sweet Lisa Marie
It’s not right and grossly unfair that she has to deal with this much loss in her family in so short a time. I hope she can continue because she seems like a positive and joyful person.
I can relate to that- going to grocery stores and grieving, doing workout and grieving, doing house chores and grieving.. Doing the routines day by day, accepting the reality that he's gone. Forever.
Elvis left a great legacy in lisa marie, Lisa marie left a great legacy in reiley they are a well mannered grounded buetiful family pracilla and Lisa were obviously great parents my heart goes out to the presley family . I'm heartbroken 💔 for them
Riley radiates such light. My 13 year old nephew suicided and then a year later his older sister did the same. This all occured in 2018 and 2019. I don't even know what to write but just wanted to share. I do sometimes think about Riley's family. Bless x
How awful for their parents. I cannot imagine that kind of pain. 💔
That’s really sad, a double tragedy. I’m so sorry for all of the family.
My goodness I understand 1st hand overwhelming grief, loss and tragedy. God Bless you lady.
The stuff about doing stuff for the first time in grief is so profound. We lost our mum under similar circumstances & it fees so heavy having to see people & do anything really for the first time after that happens.
I wish her brother was still with us.. because if he was, her mother would also be here.. 💔
She’s got a great soul and it comes through. R.I.P to her brother ❤️
I'm not judging at all but every single picture of Benjamin I've seen, not only is he not smiling but he looks so sad. How can you not see that? God bless the Presely family.
RIP Lisa Marie Presley (1968-2023) I am SO sorry Riley! I’m thinking of you and your little sisters Finley and Harper tonight! I am sending love and hugs your way.
What a kind, sweet soul she is! I wholeheartedly hope she has an excellent support system to cope with these awful losses
Riley, hope you are doing ok, So sorry to hear about your Mam's passing. God bless her and your lovely brother 🙏.Remembering also your dear grandad .
This is so heartbreaking and it's also heartbreaking because 2 years after losing her brother now she lost her mother so now she's dealing with grief all over again and that's what breaks my heart
My thoughts and prayers go out to her and her little sisters and her Grandma Priscilla
Elvis would be extremely proud of Riley. An amazing woman, that's for sure!
I think her grandfather would be very proud of her, since they have a generational curse dealing with drugs and alcohol and trauma, she's dealing with it in the very mature way, and I hope her and her mother will have a peace of mind after losing him
That's right,,,they will all eventually be on it...
She's lovely. Lisa was a good mama to her babies. I noticed that she was touching her necklace that says Ben Ben when she first started talking about her brother. Prayers for Riley and everyone who loved Lisa going forward.
Thinking of you today, strong girl. I wish you added strength and grace.
I had the same reaction the first time I lost someone - I realized how much death is swept under the carpet, and I was just as guilty before and since. I describe it as "The secret that everyone knows"
Yes, that is so true. I feel people don't know what to say to someone who is grieving. I personally wanted to talk about my loved ones suicide, but I found other people did not, like it was something shameful or wrong. Some people asked me if I was angry at the person for leaving me that way, but I wasn't, I felt so bad that they were in so much pain emotionally they they didn't want to live.
@@gregoryholstein4224 I'm so sorry for your loss
I lost my baby brother when I was a kid. I feel for Riley. 💔❤️
I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost a brother too-when I was 21. It profoundly changed me. Your brother sounded like a wonderful soul. Hoping our brothers are at peace now. 💟☮️
😘💔🙏
She"s lovely.
wow, she is explaining grief exactly how i have felt about it
She is absolutely right, we don't talk enough about death, grief and suicide in society. People like to pretend that these things are not natural and don't happen. All I know is, I can relate to anybody who has taken their lives as a result of chronic illness. I fully intend to take my own life one day because I know that there is no future left and I don't like this human experience. Better to have a good death than a bad life. R.I.P. Riley Keough. I hope he is finally at peace.
Please don’t 😢
I hope things get better for you.
I’m sending you love, I’m so sorry you are hurting. There’s definitely no shame in speaking honestly. I do hope you find something beautiful and meaningful in this human experience that gives you a reason to want to continue living for yourself. May you find that peace while you’re still here.❤️
I always found Lisa Marie very aloof,charming and articulate but aloof at the same time,Riley seems more open,sharing and delightful. Lisa did a good job,
I get it, the aloofness can be seen as other things but then again Lisa is Elivis’s daughter so… the family seems very down to earth considering that fact.
She has such a good energy. I feel her pain when she speaks about her brother, as someone who has lost people to suicide I know how incredibly numbing and confusing and hard to navigate that experience is, the conversations you have with people during grief that didn’t know how to approach the topic of suicide was always the hardest part of my grief.
Ben would have been so proud of her strength. Her words will stay with me for a while
Rest in peace ☮️ Lisa Marie Presley your daughter is beautiful and strong woman hope she be ok 😢
Thank you Riley for speaking about your brothers death because it will help someone else.
It’s hard when you lose your brother, I remember leaving the memorial after my brother passed, and I had this huge hole in my heart and everyone was living their lives just as they were the day before. My world was turned upside down, and I had to learn to live my life without him. It’s so hard….My mom died when she was 38 and I was 6.
I'm so sorry; that's a lot to have to deal with. ❤️
@@sunnyromano6862 Thank you for your kind words.
She has all my prayers for what she’s been through
She is so beautiful, just like her mom. She has Elvis’ smile.
she is very humble. I love her as an actress she is very talented, she rocked in Zola and she will rock in Daisy Jones 🔥
She's precious!! She has a beautiful soul!! Beautiful inside and out!!
What a lovely, smart and down to earth young lady! Very refreshing to see nowadays
Yes, how she was explaining grief was spot on. That's how it was after my dad died suddenly at 62. It is a whole new world that you experience without my dad in it.
When it's your parent, you have never experienced life without them before
She's beautiful, a lovely girl. Elvis would have been so proud and doting on her, as I'm sure they all are! :)
What a beautiful, clever, smart girl. My heart goes out to her. It’s all heartbreaking. Please God look after her. 🇬🇧❤️
What a lovely girl. She’s amazing and know her mom was proud. Sending her prayers.
Such a lovely human being, Riley. I hope the sun will shine again for her after the fog of grief lifts. She deserves happiness.
ben was so beautiful.
a deep soul.....
deep people can
get lost easily.
love you ben.....🌹🌹
What a beautiful spirit she has..I can just imagine how proud and chuffed Elvis would be about her ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very brave to talk about your brother's death and his life
She is so smart, beautiful and mindful of reality. Love her authenticity. Stay strong, Riley. ❤
I love this. She is so real. Believe me Riley ur helping. Bles you, the Keough and Presley Family.
Thank you for talking about suicide so openly. I lost my beloved cousin and is the same thing- no one wants to talk about it. Suicide needs to be discussed and not be such a taboo subject. It is such a shocking and hard to comprehend death. I was notified BY EMAIL, as no one in the family could deal with the manner of his death ( same as your brother's)
I agree, my cousin just died of the same thing as well and me and my siblings all know that’s what happened but my aunt won’t say tell anyone the cause of death. I know it’s hard for me that we aren’t talking about it because I randomly think about it during the day, and already having mental health issues it’s hard, and I can’t tell how it’s effecting my younger siblings and how they’re grasping it.
yes, I agree with you.
mental health is
still frowned upon.
suicide should be
more published.....xx
sorry for your loss.🌹🌹
It’s painful enough to lose someone you love, but I find it incomprehensible that mental health issues and suicide are often so stigmatized and shamed. Especially when people view it as a selfish act…they have no idea how long a person might have held on to their pain, held on simply to spare the people that love them from pain. That doesn’t sound selfish to me, it’s just incredibly sad that anyone has gone through life carrying so much pain that they feel like the only way to make it stop is to end their life. To everyone living life with grief I’m sending you love, may you find solace in your happier memories as you navigate life without your loved ones.❤
She;s so strong. She helps to hold the family together & cheer them up. Proud of her.
Glad she has a good head on her shoulder. Glad she did not get her moms problems and addiction
Rest in Peace Sweet Lisa 😢 Along Side Ur Son & Daddy 🕊 Ohhh Riley my heart 💔 soo much for You, Cilla, Harper, Finley 😭 Austin, Jerry, David & Many others who loved 💖 her, but never met her 🙏 upon ur family as you learn to Stay Strong, & love 💖 each other to keep each other going~ Ur right u havta talk of "Grief & death havta to be talked bout~ Grief is pain & Everybody hurts 💔 ~I loss my brother not to suicide, but unexpectedly 😢 ~ITS Real Hard To Add Grief & Life~
She's so beautiful inside & out❤💚
Elvis would be so proud. Wish he was here to see his Grand-daughter
She's so natural and unaffected. Also she pronounces FOLK correctly which makes me so happy.
She seems like the real, realist. 🌸
Beautiful soulRi.ey is for sure
Experiencing in grief, it is so true. After my mom passed going to her favorite place to shop I broke down and had to leave. Couldn’t do it.
Such wisdom from her already at such a young age ❤I am sending so much love to her and her family, I am so sorry for them losing their Mom and Ms. Priscilla losing her beautiful daughter 🕊🌹
This is probably her best interview ever. She's comfortable w this interviewer
Very nice interview with Riley she is a sweetheart and eloquent her grandfather sure is looking down with a big smile on his face being very proud
I've only seen pics of her & her family thru the years ; when her brother passed I was saddened ...seeing this interview has made me a fan ; she is delightful & intelligent
Many blessings to her & her family
Such a strong woman just wow❤️ R.I.P Ben
Sucha smart articulate girl. She looks so much like her mom in a very subtle way. Beautiful soul
There is a magical quality in this young woman!
She is beautiful and intelligent - that’s the “magic” 😁
I hope that people tell Riley what an amazing, talented, smart, and refreshing bright light that she is, as well! 😊
riley is so charming and talented, such and underrated actress, i just love her so much ☹️💗
Lisa must be very proud of her daughter she is a lovely person and I bet a rock to her family...she has her grandfathers beautiful cheek bones
Her description of going through grief for the first time...everything being the first time is so accurate. Feel so sad for her and her family.
Wow she's so grounded so sad that she had to go through that at such a young age !!! I love her ! God bless you and your family Riley!!!
Awe she is a sweet heart feel so bad she just lost her mom. Many prayers to you and your family
My heart breaks sooooooooooooooooo bad for her! She reminds me sooooooooooooooooo much of my daughter it's not funny, plus I'm around Lisa Marie's age & my birthday is just nearly 2 weeks b4 hers. So it hurts having a birthday now knowing Lisa Marie died sooooooooooooooooo close to her birthday! So of course they had her funeral on my birthday considering I live in Australia... so our 23rd of January is the 22nd over in America! Way to kill someone's birthday! I spent my whole birthday in my room watching all the beautiful tributes to Lisa Marie! No one else better die or have their funeral on my birthday again! It really hurt bad!🙏💔😭💔😭💔 praying for Riley, her sisters & prescilla!
Genius clearly runs in the family
