Riley Keough has been on a whirlwind press tour promoting her late mother Lisa Marie Presley‘s memoir From Here to the Great Unknown.
Riley, who is the granddaughter of the Rock N’ Roll legend Elvis Presley, was spotted in three different – but equally chic – looks while in New York City on Wednesday.
The actress, 35, spoke candidly about her late mother Lisa Marie – who passed away in January 2023 at age 54 – during her interview with Oprah Winfrey on a special titled An Oprah Special: The Presleys – Elvis, Lisa Marie and Riley.
During the interview, Riley revealed that three weeks before Lisa Marie’s death, she noticed a change in her, noting that she seems ‘detached,’ ‘tired’ and overall just seemed like a ‘tired person.’

Lisa Marie Presley gave up on ‘life’ after son Ben committed suicide, Riley Keough tells Oprah
The memoir was posthumously released on October 8; Lisa Marie had been working on it at the time of her death. Riley finished the memoir after her passing.
Lisa Marie died on January 12, 2023 at age 54, due to a small bowel obstruction – which was caused by bariatric surgery complications.
She died two days after attending the Golden Globe awards with Riley and Priscilla Presley – Lisa Marie’s mother and Riley’s grandmother.
Oprah asked her about mom Lisa Marie’s final days before her death and how she seemed.
‘The last sort of three weeks that she was alive I was with her a few times that I felt worried. I think there was always sort of an undertone for me because of this feeling that I was on borrowed time with her… there were a couple interactions with her that just felt so different,’ Riley said during the special.
Riley said mom Lisa Marie appeared ‘detached,’ tired’ and ‘resigned’ – as she was reeling from the grief of losing son Benjamin Keough – who died on July 12, 2020 at age 27 by suicide.
The actress noted that she didn’t think it was related to substance abuse: ‘It didn’t feel like drugs – I have a lot of experience with the drugs – it felt like a tired person.’

Riley also spoke out about Lisa Marie opening up in the memoir about her decision to keep late son Benjamin’s body in a guest house of her LA mansion – using dry ice to preserve his remains for two months after his July 2020 suicide.
Lisa Marie also got a matching tattoo as Benjamin amid her grieving process.
Riley said she wanted to get his name and to get a matching tattoo with him on her hand.
When the tattoo artist asked her if she had any photos that would be helpful in the process, Lisa Marie took him to see Ben and his remains.
They had the funeral in Malibu eventually and buried Benjamin at Graceland, where Lisa Marie is also buried – near Elvis, who died in 1977 at age 42 from a heart attack.
The interview took place at Graceland – the famed Memphis mansion her grandfather Elvis bought in 1957 – which has stayed in the Presley family since.
It marked the first in-depth chat Riley has done since the death of Lisa Marie.
One day later, Riley was spotted stepping out in New York City during the memoir promo tour.
