Priscilla is described as a "calculating sociopath and viper."
Hollywood has found itself at the center of a high-profile legal scandal involving the alleged kinship of John Travolta's heirs with the "King of Rock and Roll," Elvis Presley.
According to documents filed in court by former business partners of Priscilla Presley, the actor's children - Ella, Benjamin, and the late Jett, who died in 2009 - may be grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the legendary singer, reports the Daily Mail.
The case materials state that 71-year-old John Travolta and his late wife Kelly Preston were unable to conceive children naturally. Therefore, the couple turned to Elvis's only daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, requesting eggs for IVF.
After the death of their eldest son Jett in 2009, the couple decided to have a second child. However, by that time, the plaintiffs claim, Lisa Marie was suffering from drug addiction, and her biological material was no longer used. Instead, according to the documents, the couple was allegedly assisted by her daughter Riley Keough, who provided her eggs in exchange for an old Jaguar car and $20,000.
Neither John Travolta nor Riley Keough has officially commented on these allegations.

Lisa Marie Presley, referenced in the lawsuit, passed away in January 2023, and she cannot confirm or deny the information. However, her ex-husband Michael Lockwood categorically denies the claims. "This is just madness. I haven't heard anything about it," he stated.
It is important to note that the court documents lack medical records, DNA tests, or other evidence supporting a genetic connection. The claims are based solely on the testimonies of former assistants to Priscilla, who are in conflict with her over business disagreements. This is far from the only lawsuit they have filed.
In September of this year, Priscilla Presley, Elvis Presley's ex-wife and the mother of his only daughter Lisa Marie, found herself at the center of a major scandal. Her former business partners made serious allegations, linking her to two tragedies - the death of the King of Rock and Roll and the passing of Lisa Marie in January 2023. According to court documents, Priscilla is described as a "calculating sociopath and viper," allegedly extorting millions from Elvis shortly before his death. The plaintiffs claim that this psychological pressure was one of the factors leading to his demise.
Even more sensational were the accusations of failing to take measures to save her own daughter. Opponents allege that Priscilla was aware of Lisa Marie's serious health problems but did nothing to help her. The goal of such behavior, in their opinion, was to maintain control over Elvis Presley's estate, valued at hundreds of millions of dollars.
For John Travolta, this story is not just another scandal in the newspapers, but an intrusion into a personal tragedy. His eldest son Jett died at 16 from an epileptic seizure related to a rare Kawasaki syndrome. His wife Kelly Preston passed away in 2020 from breast cancer.
In April 2025, the actor posted a touching message on the day Jett would have turned 33: "Happy birthday, Jett, I miss you so much! Love you forever!"
