Riley Keough remembers late mom Lisa Marie, brother Benjamin after Emmy nomination: ‘Missing you both’
Riley Keough paid tribute to her late mother, Lisa Marie Presley, and late brother, Benjamin Keough, after being nominated for an Emmy.
“Missing you both,” Riley wrote on an image of a young Benjamin with his arms wrapped around Lisa Marie.
The actress shared the sentimental photo to her Instagram Story Wednesday following the news that she had been recognized by the Television Academy for her lead role in the Prime Video series “Daisy Jones & the Six.”
Riley, 34, re-shared the nomination announcement on her Instagram Story and wrote, “Feeling very blessed 🙏🏼 thank you.”
The “Terminal List” star’s beloved brother Benjamin died by suicide in 2020. He was 27.
Lisa Marie, the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, passed away at age 54 on Jan. 12 from cardiac arrest.
She was laid to rest beside her son in Graceland’s Meditation Garden.
Following Lisa Marie’s death, Riley and her grandmother had been wrapped up in a highly publicized legal battle over the late singer’s trust, which was settled last month.

Riley reportedly agreed to pay Priscilla, 78, over $1 million in order to become the sole trustee of her mother’s estate.
She also paid an additional $400,000 to cover legal fees.
In exchange, Priscilla was removed as trustee of her late daughter’s estate.
Her request to be buried next to her late husband, Elvis, was also reportedly denied.
The legal dispute began in January after Priscilla contested her daughter’s will, claiming that there were errors in its “authenticity and validity.”
A friend of Lisa Marie told Page Six at the time that Priscilla’s challenge to the will caused strife within the family and that she and her granddaughter were not on speaking terms.
“Riley and Priscilla are not talking,” the insider claimed. “Their relationship is changing, that is true. … It’s just so sad. This is the time Riley would really need her grandmother.”
It is unclear if the two have mended their relationship since the settlement.
