Nashville, Tenn. (January 14, 2023) — Since the passing of Lisa Marie Presley earlier this week, country legend Larry Gatlin made several national television appearances remembering the only child of the late Elvis Presley. Over the past few days, Gatlin appeared on Fox News programs The Ingraham Angle, Fox & Friends and The Story with Martha MacCallum, paying tribute to the daughter of “The King.”
“She had to almost will herself to be what everybody wanted her to be, which was a cross between Elvis and Priscilla, her mom and pop,” Gatlin told FoxNews.com. “Hard to hammer out your own identity when everyone wants you to be something/someone else. Rest in peace, sweet girl. Larry G, aka your diaper changing babysitter, from long ago.”
Gatlin met “The King” early in his career when he auditioned to be a singer in The Imperials, Elvis’ backup band during his Las Vegas residency. Elvis later recorded and released two of Gatlin’s songs, “Help Me” and “Bitter They Are, Harder They Fall.”
Lisa Marie Presley passed on Thursday. She was 54.
