Overview

  • Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko filed the suit Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court seeking more than $50 million in damages for alleged fraud, breach of contract and defamation.
  • They allege Priscilla Presley hid a 2005 $6.5 million licensing deal with Elvis Presley Enterprises while they invested years and millions in revitalizing her brand.
  • The complaint accuses Presley of removing life-support treatment for her daughter Lisa Marie to secure control of family trusts and Graceland.
  • Priscilla Presley’s attorney, Marty Singer, denounced the lawsuit as “shameful, ridiculous and unfounded” and vowed to fight what he called malicious defamation.
  • A 2023 autopsy ruled Lisa Marie Presley’s death natural with no evidence of foul play, directly contradicting the life-support allegation in the new complaint.
