As OK! previously reported, Lisa Marie died on January 12, 2023, from a bowel obstruction.
Following her death, Riley became the sole trustee of Lisa Marie’s estate, which the actress’ grandmother Priscilla Presley contested.
The legal battle began when the 77-year-old questioned a 2016 change in Lisa Marie's will that removed Priscilla and the late musician's former business manager, Barry Siegel, as co-trustees. Priscilla claimed she was completely unaware of the change until after her daughter’s passing.
