Riley Keough covers Elle UK to promote mom Lisa Marie Presley’s posthumous memoir From Here to the Great Unknown (ONTD book club covered the book! Hit the Presley family tag!).

The thing that all the Lisa Marie book summary taught me is that she is surprisingly healthy.

She's a smart cookie who really seems to have done the work to try to get her shit sorted and handle herself emotionally.

I wish her the best.

She's always been consistently chill about her nepo baby status to the point it makes the defensive ones look really silly. I remember her saying she got defensive about it at like eighteen but then went into the mindset that she had to work hard and prove herself and I don't understand why other nepos can't see that's the way to go.

ETA: I honestly wonder if having parents that didn't want her in show business and didn't care about celebrity helped her have a more easy pov about being a nepo baby and its privileges since she likely didn't see fame as something to attain to?

"I’m sure being Elvis’s grand- daughter has made it easier for me to get an agent, to have meetings and all this stuff,"
literally is that so hard to say

i'd heard of her becoming a death doula before and i think it's such a beautiful thing

also i definitely agree about the hope thing. i think i said this in a roundup recently, but i already struggle with wanting to be alive at the best of times, and there's so much bad in the world, so i just choose to believe that people are good and that they can change and be better, no matter if that takes 20, 30 years. because if i just resign myself to this thought that all people are just inherently evil and will always show their asses in the end, what am i sticking around for, you know?

would love her to appear on ask a mortician to talk about grief and handling death tbh

Take note, nepo babies, THAT is how you answer that question.

I also love the "I'm not an idiot" part of her answer
