It’s been over two years since Lisa Marie Presley’s sudden death, but her daughter Riley Keough says the connection between them hasn’t faded. If anything, it’s only grown stronger. The Daisy Jones & The Six star admits she’s been getting subtle yet undeniable “signs” from her late mom.
These spiritual mother and daughter moments, Riley Keough says, are “too weird to be coincidence.” And now, as she releases the paperback version of Lisa Marie Presley’s memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown, Riley is opening up about those experiences.
As previously reported, Riley helped co-write and complete her mother’s memoir after her passing. She says she believes these strange moments are her mom’s way of letting her know she’s at peace. Since finishing the project, Keough admits she’s felt a presence she can’t quite explain.
It’s a sense that her mother is still guiding her, even from beyond. For Riley, it’s not something spooky or unsettling. Instead, she finds great comfort in it. It’s as if Lisa Marie is giving her a quiet nod of approval from the afterlife, according to People Magazine.
The upcoming paperback edition of From Here to the Great Unknown includes a new afterword written by Riley. It is where she dives deeper into these experiences. For her, completing the memoir wasn’t just about honoring Lisa Marie. It was about finding closure in her grief and loss.
Riley Keough’s Family is Known for Spiritual Bonds
Riley’s belief in afterlife connections might raise eyebrows. However, it’s hardly surprising considering the Presley family history. Both Lisa Marie and Elvis Presley were deeply spiritual people.
Lisa often said she felt her father’s presence long after his death, and later, her late son Benjamin’s too. That sense of otherworldly comfort seems to run in the Presley bloodline. It’s a belief that love doesn’t simply end when life does.
As the sole trustee of Lisa Marie’s estate and guardian of the Presley legacy, Riley has carried an emotional weight few could imagine. Between public family disputes, grief, and the pressure of fame, she’s leaned into the idea that her mom is still beside her.
Believing strongly that Lisa Marie is now unseen but not gone. And while many skeptics may roll their eyes, something is comforting and beautiful about finding peace in the idea that love transcends life and death.
So whether Riley Keough’s “signs” from her mother, Lisa Marie, are real or just comforting coincidences. For her, they seem to be helping her navigate life without her mother. After all, if believing her mom is still reaching out brings Riley comfort, who’s to say it’s not real?
