Keough is the eldest of "King of Rock and Roll" Elvis Presley's four grandchildren. Though the iconic singer died 12 years prior to Keough's 1989 birth, the relation adds a certain pressure, though Keough said being a part of the Presley bloodline has more pros than cons. "It's been a huge help," she told The Guardian in 2017. "I'm very privileged. Like the normal story of moving to LA, and it takes you three years to find an agent? I got one in a week."
You'd think that her image as Presley's granddaughter would eclipse her individuality, but that's never been the case for Keough, who doesn't mind being referred to as his granddaughter. "Why should I? It's a fact. And I'm not ashamed of that in any way," she said.
Keough has also been supportive Baz Luhrmann's "Elvis," attending a number of events in honor of the movie along with her mother, Lisa Marie Presley, and grandmother Priscilla Presley. Tragically, Lisa Marie died on Jan. 12 after paramedics were called to her home due to a possible cardiac arrest.
Later that month, Keough commemorated her mom by sharing their last photo together. "I feel blessed to have a photo of the last time I saw my beautiful mama," she wrote.
