Priscilla Presley and Riley Keough's legal feud seems to be water under the bridge as the glamorous duo stepped out in matching all-black Chanel outfits for the Primetime Emmy Awards together.

Monday evening, Daisy Jones & The Six star Riley made a bold statement as she brought her grandmother Priscilla as her stylish date for the 75th annual award show. The iconic pair looked breathtaking together as they rocked matching sleek black ensembles for the special occasion. In the snaps, the pair seemed to be in high spirits as they wrapped their arms around each other and exchanged smiles on the red carpet.

The pair's red carpet debut together comes as they previously were involved in a long-winded legal battle following the death of Riley's mother and Priscilla's daughter Lisa Marie Presley who tragically passed away in January of last year. After months of legal disputes, the pair finally came to a settlement over Lisa's trust in May that was officially approved by a judge in November. After they came to the agreement, Elvis Presley's ex-wife said that her family is "stronger than ever." She explained: "Although some media identified such a plea as a lawsuit, I want to make clear that there was never any lawsuit filed against my beloved granddaughter."

The 75th annual Emmy Awards were initially supposed to air in September 2023. However, they were postponed until January 2024 due to the ongoing writers strike.

Anthony Anderson was still available to host the highly-anticipated awards event. During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, he revealed hosting the Emmys has always been a lifelong dream for him. "I said yes to hosting the Emmys, maybe, 15 years ago; they’re just now getting around to asking me to host," he shared, adding, "These are little milestones in my career that I set long before I had a career."

Leading with the most Emmy nominations is the hit HBO show Succession followed by The Last Of Us, The White Lotus and Ted Lasso. Meanwhile, there was a fair amount of suprising snubs, including the exclusion of Poker Face, Reservation Dogs and Yellowstone. Many also felt that Harrison Ford should have been included for either his role in 1923 or Shrinking as well as Elizabeth Olsen for her performance in Love & Death.
