The 35-year-old actress, who is the granddaughter of legend Elvis Presley and daughter of the late Lisa Marie Presley, spoke to host Alex Cooper about her unique upbringing and her mother’s marriage to Jackson.
When asked if any adults had raised concerns about her time with Michael, particularly the child sex allegations that came to light in 1994, a year before his marriage to Lisa Marie. , Keough responded, “I was never told anything. And it’s not really something I asked as an adult.
Reflecting on those times, Keef stated that his life then “was just what it was,” adding, “I would imagine my father was really heartbroken and reading the news. I would imagine He said all sorts of things to my mother that we didn’t know about.
Riley emphasized that her parents, Lisa Marie and Danny Keough, maintained a policy of shielding their children from adult conflicts and arguments.
“We knew nothing,” he repeated. “We didn’t know about any allegations. We didn’t know. We had no knowledge of it.”
Lisa Marie’s marriage to Michael, which lasted from 1994 to 1996, was an important part of Keough’s early life.
Looking back, Keef said, “The one thing I do know is that they were in love, and that their love for each other was real.” When Jackson was asked about the allegations in the years after their marriage, she simply said, “I don’t know, because I wasn’t there.”
