PHOTO | She would have turned 55 today: Priscilla announced on Lisa Marie Presley's birthday
The musician Lisa Marie Presley died on January 12, at the age of 54, as a result of a heart attack. She was the only daughter of the "king of rock and roll" and the fruit of a great love between them Elvis and Priscilla Presley. Lisa inherited the talent for music from her father, and the incredible beauty from her mother. In other words, she was the perfect combination, but life was not serving her good things.
Today Lisa would have turned 55 years old, but she left too soon like her father. Priscilla Presley announced herself on social networks with an emotional message and a photo gallery of her only daughter.

"Today would have been Lisa's 55th birthday. My desire is to protect my three nieces and hold our family together. From the first moment I held Lisa in my arms, I protected, loved and guided her. Our hearts are broken and I have to learn to live without my only daughter. We truly love you all and feel your prayers. Thank you so much for caring so deeply about our family," wrote Priscilla in an emotional post sharing photos with her daughter.

Like her father, Lisa Marie struggled with an addiction to painkillers. After ending her relationship with her fourth husband, Michael Lockwood, she checked herself into a rehab facility.

Priscilla Presley was preoccupied with her daughter's battle with addiction and "visited her often", and sources claim her addiction to painkillers began before her split from Michael Jackson. She claimed she had "excruciating back pain".
