Priscilla Presley marked the 47th anniversary of Elvis Presley's passing with a heartfelt tribute shared on Instagram.
The emotional post, which was shared on August 16, 2024, commemorates the day the iconic musician died of a heart attack at the age of 42 in 1977. In her tribute, Priscilla, 79, posted a poignant video that features a youthful image of Elvis, gradually zooming out, accompanied by an instrumental version of his 1972 hit, 'Always on My Mind.' The caption accompanying the video reads, "47 years and not a day goes by that I don't think of you," and includes a rose emoji. https://www.instagram.com/p/C-u8XZkpu9I/ The tribute comes just days after Priscilla honoured Elvis's mother, Gladys Presley, on August 14. Gladys passed away in 1958, and Priscilla shared another touching video, reflecting on the significant role Gladys played in Elvis's life. "She meant the world to him," Priscilla wrote, sharing anecdotes about Gladys's protective nature and the deep bond she had with her son. https://www.instagram.com/p/C-p1llIJp06/ Priscilla's poignant message of remembrance echoes sentiments she shared earlier in an interview reported by People magazine. Reflecting on her visits to Graceland, Priscilla revealed, "To be honest, there isn't a day [that] goes by when I don't think of him." She fondly recalled moments when she imagined Elvis's reactions to things she saw, expressing a continued connection to his memory. In her interview, Priscilla also speculated about Elvis's potential career trajectory had he lived longer, pondering whether he might have gravitated towards gospel music. She reminisced about their time together at Graceland, recalling Elvis's thoughts on why he favoured ballads, noting his belief that "life's truth is in those songs," according to People magazine. Priscilla who celebrated her 79th birthday in May remains active on social media, sharing personal anecdotes and memories with her followers. Recently, she recounted a humorous kitchen mishap involving a pasta dish she attempted to cook for Elvis. Elvis Presley and Priscilla Presley were married for six years, from 1967 to 1973. Elvis passed away in 1977 at the age of 42, a few years after their divorce. The couple had a daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, who passed away at the age of 54 in 2023. (ANI)
