Riley Keough wants to "reveal the core" of who her mother Lisa Marie Presley was.
The late singer - who died in January 2023 at the age of 54 after suffering a sudden cardiac arrest - was the daughter of music legend Elvis Presley and his wife Priscilla, and now her daughter Riley, 35, has decided to finish her mother's memoir that she never got the chance to complete.
She told People: "Because my mother was Elvis Presley’s daughter, she was constantly talked about, argued over and dissected. What she wanted to do in her memoir, and what I hope I’ve done in finishing it for her, is to go beneath the magazine headline idea of her and reveal the core of who she was.
"To turn her into a three-dimensional human being: the best mother, a wild child, a fierce friend, an underrated artist, frank, funny, traumatised, joyous, grieving, everything that she was throughout her remarkable life. I want to give voice to my mother in a way that eluded her while she was alive.
"The tapes are an incredible portrait of the force of nature that she was.
"Depending on the day and her mood, she can sound locked-in or distracted, vulnerable and open or annoyed and closed off, hopeful, angry, everything. You hear her in all her complications."
The 'Daisy Jones and the Six' actress - whose father is actor Danny Keough - just wants fans to be able to relate to 'From Here To The Unknown' and understand that, as her mother wished, that they are not alone no matter what their trials and tribulations in life.
She said: "I hope that in an extraordinary circumstance, people relate to a very human experience of love, heartbreak, loss, addiction and family. [My mom] wanted to write a book in the hopes that someone could read her story and relate to her, to know that they’re not alone in the world. Her hope with this book was just human connection. So that’s mine."
