The late Lisa Marie Presley got a matching tattoo with her late son Benjamin Keough after he died, her daughter Riley Keough said Tuesday.
Keough, 35, spoke with Oprah Winfrey, 70, Tuesday on a special titled An Oprah Special: The Presleys – Elvis, Lisa Marie And Riley, in which she spoke about her family’s star-crossed history.
The appearance came amid the posthumous release of From Here to the Great Unknown, Lisa Marie’s memoir she had been working on at the time of her death in January of 2023 that Keough finished.
In the book, Lisa Marie opened up on making the decision to keep her late son Benjamin’s body in a guest home at her Los Angeles mansion for two months – utilizing dry ice to preserve his remains following his July 2020 suicide.
Lisa Marie also got a matching tattoo with her late son amid her grieving process; Keough told Oprah, ‘On paper, I can see how this sounds completely insane and absurd but my mom was just very much herself … she wasn’t a crazy lady – she was just herself.’
Keough told Oprah that the tattoo artist asked Lisa Marie if she had any photos that would be helpful in the process, and Lisa Marie volunteered to show the artist using the body itself.

‘He’s like, “Okay, do you have any photos?” Kind of a thing. And she was, like, “No – but I can show you,”‘ Keough said.
Keough said she was taken aback amid the macabre moment amid her mother’s grief.
‘And I was just sitting there, like, this is … I stayed quiet because it’s my mom,’ Keough told Oprah. ‘And she – she does what she wants. But it was definitely one of the most, like, absurd moments.’
