  • Despite Elvis Presley’s cheating rumours, Priscilla had an affair herself – with Mike Stone, a karate instructor who worked with Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris
  • Before her long term relationship with Marco Garibaldi, she dated Robert Kardashian after his brief split from Kris Jenner, and actor Michael Edwards, who Lisa Marie later called ‘sick’

On May 1, 1967, Priscilla Presley went from army brat (her dad was a US Air Force officer) to the wife of The King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, becoming a superstar overnight at just 21 years old. She had won the seemingly unattainable heart of Elvis Presley, and though they divorced in 1973, she remained his first and only wife, and the mother to his one child, Lisa Marie, until his untimely death in 1977.

To this day, Priscilla, now 77, has never remarried – and she still refers to the music legend as “the love of my life”.

However, that’s not to say she hasn’t found love with anyone since Elvis. The bohemian beauty has in fact had several relationships with men from all walks of life – though, notably, there have been no rock stars in sight.

Despite Priscilla and Elvis giving the outside world the impression that they were always happy, the couple faced many issues behind closed doors. Elvis’ alleged affairs were well documented and, unsurprisingly, eventually caused the marriage to fall apart. But, by her own admission, Priscilla was also guilty of infidelity.
