‘Broke’ Priscilla Presley Accused of ‘Burning Through’ Millions With ‘Lavish Lifestyle’ in New Lawsuit

Priscilla Presley has been slammed with a $50 million lawsuit accusing her of fraud, overspending, “flaunting” a false “persona” to garner public favor and even pulling the plug on her own daughter against her wishes.

On Wednesday, August 13, Priscilla’s ex business associates, Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko, submitted a court filing that claimed she did “anything she could to control her image.”

“[She] ultimately wanted one thing, power, no matter the cost,” the lawsuit — obtained by the National Enquirer — reads.

“Despite her doting public persona, Priscilla had an obsession with being known, like Elvis [Presley],” the legal filing continues. “She led a lavish lifestyle, ultimately burning through the $6.5 million she was able to extricate from the estate, despite Elvis’ wishes in their divorce that she not use his name.”

While Priscilla, 80, allegedly continued to live her “fast-paced glamorous life,” she reportedly “owed $700,00 to the IRS and was broke” by 2021.

In 2022, Kruse and Fialko’s lawsuit alleged that they both “worked feverishly to maximize the value of Priscilla’s name” to the detriment of their own businesses which “suffered financially” during that time.

Around the time of the Golden Globes in January 2023, Priscilla’s daughter, Lisa Marie, was allegedly “noticeably” becoming “ill” and had been “complaining” to her mother about her health issues. The lawsuit claims Priscilla ignored the “warning signs.”

On January 12, Lisa Marie “suffered cardiac arrest” and was transported to West Hills Hospital in L.A. County.

“Priscilla, who knew that Lisa was in the process of taking steps to remove her as the sole trustee of Lisa’s irrevocable life insurance trust, saw an opportunity to regain control,” the court documents allege. “Despite Lisa’s clear directive to ‘prolong her life,’ Priscilla pulled the plug within hours of Lisa being admitted, and before her granddaughter, Riley [Keough], was able to get to the hospital, demanding that Kruse issue a statement to the media, so she could control the narrative.”

Priscilla’s attorney, Marty Singer, has since denied the allegations and called the lawsuit “shameful, ridiculous, salacious and meritless.”
