Lisa Marie Presley has filed for divorce from her fourth husband, Michael Lockwood, after ten years of marriage. The two have seven year-old twin girls together, Harper and Finley. Lisa has an adult daughter and son, Riley and Benjamin Keogh, from her first marriage to Danny Keough. In between she was married to Michael Jackson and to Nicolas Cage (who is coincidentally just separated from his wife, not that I’m suggesting that has anything to do with this). ET confirms that Lisa has filed:
These are Lockwood's only children, while Presley also has a daughter and a son -- Riley and Benjamin Keough -- from her first marriage to Danny Keough, which ended in 1994. In addition to Lockwood and Keough, Presley was married to Michael Jackson from 1994 to 1996, and to Nicolas Cage from 2002 to 2004.
TMZ reports that they have a postnup and that Lisa is seeking full custody and wants to give Michael visitation, but that she wants it monitored for some reason. She is not seeking spousal or child support and lists their date of separation as June 13th. Their source states “She doesn’t want any of his money.”
I’m surprised that we’re just hearing this news, because I assumed these two had already separated or filed for divorce. The National Enquirer reported in February of this year that they hadn’t been seen together in nine months at that point. They live in Tennessee with their daughters according to the Enquirer’s reporting and had previously lived in East Sussex England, where Lisa used to own a very large estate. She put her property up for sale last year. Lisa has a ton of money, having sold the rights to her father Elvis’s name and image in 2004, before she married Michael, for $100 million. It will be interesting to see how this divorce pans out. I’ve also heard that Lisa either left Scientology or has major issues with it, and it’s thought that Michael is a Scientologist. I wonder if that factors into their divorce at all, or maybe he’s out of Scientology too. She keeps a lockdown on her personal life so I doubt we’ll get any insider information.
