Riley Keough, 33, and her spouse Ben Smith-Petersen were enjoying an adorable lunch date, a month after the death of her mother, Lisa Marie Presley. The actress wore a gray sweatshirt with 'Graceland' written on it, the name of her late grandpa Elvis Presley's former home in Memphis, Tennessee, per Hollywood Life. She had her hair pulled back into a low ponytail and was sporting a casual look along with loose black pants, white shoes, and light yellow-framed sunglasses.
Ben sported jeans, a black and white pair of shoes, and a dark gray T-shirt. Ben seemed to be carrying a box of leftover food from their lunch, and Riley was also carrying a black purse and a cup with a straw. The latter grinned briefly as he and his wife passed photographers.
The duo was out to lunch about a month after Riley's mother, Lisa Marie Presley, tragically passed away unexpectedly of a cardiac arrest at the age of 54. "It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us," Priscilla confirmed in a statement to PEOPLE on the evening of January 12. She further stated, "She was the most passionate strong, and loving woman I have ever known. We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this profound loss. Thank you for the love and prayers. At this time there will be no further comment."
Riley and her grandmother, Priscilla Presley, are at odds with each other over a 2016 amendment in Lisa Marie's trust that leaves her estate and the Graceland property to her three daughters: Riley, and her 14-year-old twin sisters, Harper and Finley. Priscilla and Lisa Marie's former business manager have been removed from this trust, and Priscilla has filed a petition challenging its authenticity. “There are many issues surrounding the authenticity and validity of the purported 2016 amendment,” Priscilla and her attorney claim in the new 13-page filing, per The Rolling Stone.
During her daughter's lifetime, the document was “never delivered” to Priscilla and it also misspelled Priscilla’s name which causes her to believe that it wasn’t witnessed or notarized and that “Lisa Marie’s signature appears inconsistent with her usual and customary signature.”
“It has been a very tense and heartbreaking few weeks for both Riley and Priscilla,” a source told Entertainment Tonight. “Riley has been mourning the loss of her mother and is heartbroken to have to deal with a trust dispute with a family member.” Priscilla, who was divorced from Elvis at the time of his passing in 1977, was also said to be “adamant that she has a valid case and that she will prevail in court,” according to the insider.
