The insider alleged the longtime Scientologist, 77, begged the organization to try to get Lisa Marie, who reportedly left the church before her passing, clean from drugs and alcohol in their treatment program, Narconon, in 2019.

The "Light's Out" musician's personal struggle was revealed during her court battle with ex-husband Michael Lockwood — with whom she shared 14-year-old twin daughters Harper and Finley — after she filed for divorce in June 2016 following ten years of marriage.

"It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us," her mother confirmed in a heartbreaking statement.
