Lisa Marie Presley, the only child of singer Elvis Presley, has signed a massive deal for the book she is writing about her ex Michael Jackson and a new perspective on her father, Elvis Presley.
A source informed Page Six that the Lisa Marie book has been sold to Gallery Books for between USD 3 million and USD 4 million.
The book “promises shocking revelations about Michael Jackson and a completely new understanding of Elvis,” a source added.
Lisa was married to the King of Pop from 1994 to 1996. The couple married secretly in a private ceremony before making it public on MTV.
In 2010, she opened up about how the marriage ended in an interview with Oprah Winfrey.
“There was a very profound point in the marriage when he had to make a decision. Was it the drugs and the sort of vampires, or me? And he pushed me away,” she said, clarifying that by “vampires” she meant “sycophants.”
