“Shocking Revelation: Lisa Marie Presley’s Heart-Wrenching Secret After Son Benjamin’s Tragic Death”
“Grief does not stop or go away in any sense, a year, or years after the loss,” she wrote. “Grief is something you will have to carry with you for the rest of your life, in spite of what certain people or our culture wants us to believe.
“You do not ‘get over it,’ you do not ‘move on,’ period.”
She also mentioned that grief is an “incredibly lonely” feeling and said, “Despite people coming in the heat of the moment to be there for you right after the loss takes place, they soon disappear and go on with their own lives and they kind of expect for you to do the same, especially after some time has passed.”
Lisa Marie Presley later died in January 2023 at 54 years old due to complications from a bariatric surgery — a fairly common weight loss procedure — she had gotten years earlier.

The two got his name tattooed on their collarbone and hand — the exact same place Benjamin had theirs inked on his skin.
Presley’s daughter wrote that the experience was quite strange since her mother had instructed the tattoo artist to see Benjamin’s body in order to get the placement right.
“Lisa Marie Presley had just this poor man to look at the body of her dead son, which happened to be right next to us in the casitas,” she wrote. “I’ve had an extremely absurd life, but this moment is in the top five.”
That moment may have spurred the decision to finally lay Benjamin to rest as Riley said, “Soon after that, we all kind of got this vibe from my brother that he didn’t want his body in this house anymore.”
