As reported by DailyMail, while talking to Piers Morgan during the interview for the British news show TalkTV, Priscilla Presley revealed she was very concerned about Lisa Marie Presley and her marriage to Michael Jackson. The 78-year-old actress recalled Lisa Marie confiding in her about Michael’s regular absences and disappearances, saying, “She said, ‘Mom, I’m really concerned,’ this is while they were married, and she said, ‘I never see him. He is always gone.’” When asked if her daughter knew his whereabouts, Priscilla revealed Lisa didn’t know and told her that he would just call three or four days later.

In the same interview, Priscilla Presley also discussed her fears over the ‘Beat It’ singer marrying Lisa Marie Presley as he was interested in her dad, ace musician Elvis Presley. She said, “I always felt that Michael Jackson loved Elvis, or respected Elvis, so I always felt that having the name, associated with the name with his daughter, I was concerned. I told her…”
On being quizzed if she thought that was the main reason he married Lisa Marie, Priscilla replied in the affirmative and added, “I never really got to know him.” When asked if she would have preferred her daughter not to marry the ‘Heal The World’ singer, she said, “Yes, just because I felt that he was so intrigued about Elvis.” She added that she thought he was with her “because she was a Presley.”
