Priscilla tells of private life of the Presleys

THE unhappiness and deterioration in health of Elvis Presley as he turned to drugs after the break-up of his marriage was distressing to watch, his widow said yesterday.

Millions of women would have loved to swap places with Priscilla Beaulieu Presley, but Elvis’s widow said she had to walk away from a life with the rock’n’roll icon.

The man known as The King practically controlled her life, foisting his ideas and opinions on her along with deciding how she should dress.
