Why did Pricilla marry Elvis

[utmom2008]

Priscilla probably hasn't even read her own books as they were ghost written, half the content is exaggerated or sexed up to increase sales potential.

I bet Priscilla can't believe her luck, the man who she divorced passed away and she manipulated his father for the keys to the kingdom. She can't libel Elvis as he is dead, so basically she can say whatever she wants.

She has made a career off the back of a man she couldn't stand to live with but she is happy to accept the millions he his legacy provides her. The decent thing for her to do is say nothing at all.

One thing that always irritated about Priscilla is how she'll say the Presley name is a burden to her. When she says that it always annoys me
How stupid does she think we all are?

If it weren't for her marriage to Elvis nobody would know who she is and she wouldn't be wealthy

She wouldn't have been on those Amazing Animal or have gotten roles in Dallas or The Naked Gun movies

That's some Burden she carries.

With all due respect, Zonja,
That is so not true!!! Do you speak from experience or what?

Great point Desiree! For any of us to say he was lousy in bed is preposterous!

[utmom2008]

The answer is simple, she married him because she got to him before i did.

That's what i was wonderin' to

No wonder Priscilla had an affair that would satisfy her needs

I bet that she had to put a sack over his face to keep from looking at him too! I would have a hard time getting by Mike Stone's face to know if he satisfied anything for me.

Whatever her attraction was to Mike Stone it certainly was not his face!

[midnight]

I think Priscilla hoped the best. I've never believed they didn't have sex after Lisa was born. I believe it never was any good. Some women have made it very clear that Elvis wasn't good in bed. His bedroom skills couldn't satisfy a woman. No wonder Priscilla had an affair that would satisfy her needs

What kind of woman would not be satisfied by Elvis? Good lord! I mean all he would have to do is give me one of those "brooding looks" or "a touch with those beautiful hands" to bring out the woman in me!

Only because is Elvis Presley!Not for Elvis!She NEVER understood Elvis,and NEVER would understand Elvis!My opinion,of course.

I think priscilla in my opinion new elvis better than any us on here. she was there and lived the dream all woman seem to have except me. Elvis and her grew apart for things we will never know. Elvis loved the woman to much and for woman to have a hubby always seeing different girls all the time would come to a end and this case this is what happend also in elvis and priscilla marriage.

w..
since priscilla had that knowledge back then after having lived with him for years, she knew exactly what was lying ahead of her....
hugs, ellie

I disagree with that - I think it's reasonable to expect that being married means that things will change - like the cheating and much more couple time.

IMO if someone (or both) in a couple is cheating before marriage, there's not a lot of hope after marriage.

That's probably true. Especially if it's sustained romantic interests, such as Elvis's Ann Margaret relationship, as opposed to casual encounters.

I think her parents were nuts for even sending her to him. Gees, at sixteen, I wasn't even allowed to cross the state line. And that's really close for me. But the drinking age there was 21 and in mineit was 18. Lots of my friends did with fake I.D.s. I didn't want to do it but even if I did, I'd never get away with it. My parents were not fools.

At 16 I wasen't even allowed to talk to a boy on the phone

Really? I had two ex-wives and 5 cubs to support
I guess 'bear years' are different.

Absolutely..........that's supposed to be the more 'intense' time of your relationship

You would think not being together all the time,..... as the saying goes.......'makes the heart grow fonder'........

[debtdbruno]

I think maybe she was 'in love' with the thought of 'being in love with Elvis Presley'........certainly at 14

As time goes on and you (another saying.LOL)......'put all your eggs in one basket'.......then it's hard to admit defeat and need to see it through to the finish

[LaurieT]

Well at that point, I don't think she figured she had anything to loose. Life was staying the same for so long. Maybe she just thought that they would progress and things would be different then.

[Elizasong]

I think Elvis and Priscilla cared for each other. I think he didn't think he would have to commit until he was told he had to. He wasn't going to change and if she thought he would then she learned.
