Michael Lockwood Demands Riley Keough to Cover $153K Legal Fees in Lisa Marie Presley Divorce Case

Lisa Marie Presley’s ex-husband Michael Lockwood asked a court to order her daughter Riley Keough to pay him $153k to cover his legal bills related to Elvis’ granddaughters. Lockwood, who was married to Presley from 2006 to 2021, was named Guardian Ad Litem for the two daughters he had with Elvis’ only child after her death in January 2023.

He was also awarded primary custody of the girls. Lockwood and Presley had twins — Harper and Finley. Presley’s only child was her oldest daughter Keough who was named administrator of her late mom’s estate, The Promenade Trust.

In his petition, Lockwood said, “After Lisa Marie’s death, the Promenade Trust was the subject of litigation, primarily focused on who should be the trustee. To protect and represent their interests in this litigation, Finley and Harper sought and secured the court appointment of their father, Michael Lockwood, to serve as their Guardian Ad Litem.”

He added, “Through the significant efforts and contributions of the parties, including Mr. Lockwood and his counsel, all disputes surrounding Lisa Marie’s estate were amicably and efficiently resolved, and that settlement was approved by this Court on August 4, 2023.”
