    It's very simple.

    Impotency issues of the last couple of years aside, it's because Elvis was not married.

    There was no way that Elvis Presley would have had a child out of wedlock, at least not intentionally.

    And he did not wish to marry anyone ever again.

    I agree with Getlo, he just never had the chance after Cilla. I believe his lifestyle/state of mind was too messed up after 1973 to even think about more kids.

    And he did not wish to marry anyone ever again.
    Is this proven? Not saying your wrong, just curious.

    I think he probably did want more children. Just the way things go, they broke up, got divorced and everything went belly-up.
    Priscilla is supposed to have said, even when still married, that she didnt want any more.

    That may be another reason why the marriage didn't work out. They weren't in tune with each other...Elvis was said to want several children.

    No I dont think the marriage broke up because of the children issue. I think there were lots of reasons Priscilla left. I just remember reading after Lisa, Priscilla said she didnt want any more children ...... with Elvis

    On the EBTP dvd when Elvis was talking about kids, to me it definitely sounded like he didnt want his child to be an only-child.

    I agree, it wasn't the cause of the break-up for sure but it may have been another reason why the two of them didn't mesh emotionally.

    Re: why didn't Elvis have more kids

    I think he did want another child i've heard Dr.Nick, Linda Thompson, Joe Esposito and a couple of other people say that he wanted to have a son.

    if he had a son he talked about how was going to name him either.

    Michael Baron Presley

    John Baron Presley.



    sometimes people want to have more children but it never comes to pass.

    and Getlo is right Elvis wasn't married and he wouldn't intentionally have a child out of wedlock.

    Elvis wasn't the family guy at all. Although I think that he loved and needed his family, he surely wasn't a father figure at all. He basically wanted to live his old life as a free man and date as many women he wanted and be with whomever he liked. And that is something one should not do as a father and married man. It wasn't his lifestyle.

    Only thing that I don't heard until now are the Children's Name.
    Beautiful Names!
    He would be a Beautiful Child!

    It would have been much harder for a boy to follow in Elvis' footsteps

    I agree. From the little I've read, it's been hard enough on Benjamin his grandson.

    I think Elvis did want several children when he was younger but as his life went on even before his marriage, I think his lifestyle pretty much put that out of his mind.

    He did get a lot of pleasure when he and Priscilla had Lisa but he really didn't have time for a family anymore.
