I have not read about the nervous breakdown part. I have read about the reconciliation, though. It been stated by some of Elvis' entourage and Priscilla that Elvis wasn't willing and hadn't changed any of the things that drove Priscilla away - rampant infidelity, pills, pills, pills, and all of the guys around, living like a recluse when not on tour. I guess it would be difficult to live that lifestyle.

I think its when she finally realized even by marrying elvis nothing was going to change his lifestyle which she wanted him home, with all the guys gone etc..and it wasn't going to happen and she realized that i believe.

I just have one question about Priscilla cheating first...don't shoot me....just answer the question. Everyone talks and knows about the rage Elvis went into when he found out about Mike Stone - wanted him dead, blah blah blah! Did he find out about her first affair at the dinner table before dessert or afterwards cause I don't believe ever hearing about a rage of going on a killing spree. Does anyone know how he reacted when he found out about this "alleged" incident?

I think he was shocked and hurt deeply at first then it turned to anger...I read so much about how he went on and on wanting Stone killed and they even got a hitman on Mike and elvis panicked and said before get this.lol.

I'm talking about the one that was before she ever left Elvis for Mike Stone. What was Elvis' reaction to that one?
Forever Best Friends
I just don't think that Elvis could have kept his cool and calm demeanor had he known that Priscilla had 'cheated' on him after the baby was born. For a man with an ego and reputation the size of Texas, there is absolutely no way he wouldn't have gone stark, raving mad had he known about this 'alleged' affair.

Haven't read or heard a thing about that one. Maybe that's something Elvis never knew about.
I'd never heard about Priscilla asking for a reconciliation after the break-up with Mike Stone or why they broke up in the first place. If Elvis didn't want to take Priscilla back when he had the chance, how can anyone say he loved her and wanted her back until he died?

Exactly..don't see how many man would not be furious

It makes for a better Harlequin Romance novel. Elvis pining away for his beloved Priscilla.
Well I'll tell you what, 'taint the way I've noticed real love works.

That's what Sonny was saying Priscilla has been lying about it
Elvis didn't reconcile with Priscilla for 2 reasons
1. Elvis had moved on to younger, newer women and was enjoying being a bachelor again.
2. Priscilla left him for someone like Mike Stone (who also had a small daughter and his wife was pregnant with their second child when her and Stone started having an affair and Priscilla had met stone's wife and saw her pregnant and that didnt' bother her) He also knew and thought he could trust Stone to teach Priscilla karate without Stone messing around with her.
That Priscilla took their daughter to live with a man she barely knew ( she only knew him for like 2 months)
There was too much water under the bridge from that
Elvis always had this in the back of his mind
P.S.Elvis didn't go through with killing Stone but I believe had he lived to meet and to hear from Lisa what Mike Edwards was trying to do with her he would have killed the male model.
Brad -- that's THREE times this week that we agree on something......wow........Exactly..don't see how many man would not be furious

Now there's the sign of a really nice, decent woman. I'm sorry, but that is disgusting to me.

I read somewhere that he indeed knew about it. Cilla came home at 2 in the morning and Elvis was asking her where she had been. She answered that she had taken dance lessons, and elvis was wondering like everyone else: dance lessons at 2 in the morning? Well he didn't believe her.
Though..no word was spoken about that incident after that.
Dunno if this story is true....
"If in the twilight of memory
we should meet once more,
we shall speak together
and you shall sing me a deeper song."
That was in the movie Elvis & ME too....not sure how much truth is behinde that though.

completely to the point !!!Now there's the sign of a really nice, decent woman. I'm sorry, but that is disgusting to me.because she was disapproving of philandering married men , she decided to choose one who had a wife pregnant with her second child !! she was a model wife and mother!!
