Lisa Marie Presley will be laid to rest at Graceland following her tragic death aged 54.

The only daughter of Elvis Presley will be buried next to her beloved son Benjamin Keough, who died by suicide in 2020, at her dad's Memphis mansion Graceland.

On Thursday, it was announced by her mother Priscilla Presley that Lisa Marie had died after being rushed to hospital over a suspected heart attack.

It has been reported that Lisa Marie was rushed to hospital after her housekeeper found her unresponsive at her home in Calabasas, California.

Her ex-husband is said to have been there and performed CPR on her until paramedics arrived and took over.

"Lisa Marie's final resting place will be at Graceland, next to her beloved son Ben," a representative for the singer-songwriter told The Hollywood Reporter.

Her son Benjamin was 27 when he died, triggering an "unrelenting grief" for his mum.

He was buried in the Meditation Garden, which is also the resting place of his grandfather Elvis, great-grandmother Gladys, great-grandfather Vernon and great-great-grandmother Minnie Mae.

Lisa Marie had barely left the house in recent weeks, however, she did visit Graceland on Sunday to mark Elvis' 88th birthday.

She spoke to fans outside the mansion and told them how much she appreciated their support.

Lisa Marie said they were the "only people who can bring me out of the house" in a poignant speech.

"It's been a while. I've missed you. I love you.

"I keep saying you are the only people who can bring me out of the house. I'm not kidding. I love you back and that's why I'm here," she said.

She added: "Today, he would have been 88 years old, it's hard to believe.

"I think that he would have been proud, I think this year's been an incredible year. I think the movie was incredible and I'm very proud of it, I hope you guys are too.
