Four months after Lis Marie Presley’s death, her daughter, Riley Keough, is set to move on with life. The actress shared in a recent interview with Vogue Australia that she and her husband, Ben Smith-Petersen, are considering moving to Australia.
โIโm just really happy when Iโm there,” she told the news outlet. “I have certain countries and places that I just feel so free in, and I think Australiaโs one of them.โ The announcement comes as a surprise and marks a major change in Keough’s life and career.

“I think that when you fall in love in a place, itโs always got that memory to it,โ Riley revealed. โIf it wasnโt so far, I would live there in a heartbeat. We talk about it all the time. I would love to have a house there. I love being in Australia.โ
Her legal battles with her grandmother, Priscilla Presley, might have influenced the decision
Riley’s decision to leave Hollywood behind and relocate also comes in the wake of the ongoing legal battle over the Graceland estate with her grandmother, Priscilla Presley. Sources close to the family have revealed that the 33-year-old is becoming increasingly frustrated with her grandmother’s efforts to gain control of the property.
โRiley is calling Priscilla cruel, selfish, and money-hungry. Priscilla is used to getting her way, so sheโs slightly surprised that Riley is fighting back,โ an insider revealed. “Riley has typically preferred to stay above the fray, but the fact that sheโs seeing this through shows how passionate Riley is about it. Sheโs sending a message to her grandmother โ back off because I am not backing down.โ
Another source disclosed that Riley is standing on her feet against her grandmother this time around. “Riley and Lisa Marie were incredibly close, but there was always friction between them and Priscilla,โ the insider revealed. โPriscillaโs court antics were the last straw for Riley. Sheโs done with her grandmother always putting herself first.โ
