Lisa Marie Presley died of small bowel obstruction

Singer Lisa Marie Presley, Elvis Presley’s only daughter’s death in January was caused by a small bowel obstruction caused by a prior weight loss surgery, Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner said on Thursday.

Presley’s death was ruled as being from natural causes, after being found by her ex-husband, unresponsive, in her home, then hospitalised at a Los Angeles hospital, where she was announced dead. No indication was made public at the time of what may have caused the medical issue.

Presley was buried at Graceland, the home-turned-museum, where she lived with her father as a child, leaving behind three daughters, actor Riley Keough, and twins Harper and Finley Lockwood. Presley had a son, who died from suicide in 2020.
