Mirror of Fate: Lisa Marie Presley's Shocking Death Echoes Father Elvis Presley's Demise
In a disturbing twist of fate, the death of Lisa Marie Presley, the only offspring of music legend Elvis Presley, mirrors that of her iconic father. Recent autopsy results disclose that the 54-year-old mother of four succumbed to a bowel obstruction, similar to the cause of her father's death in 1977, and had opioids in her system. This chilling similarity has stunned fans and family alike.
Presley was found lifeless on January 12 in circumstances that were eerily reminiscent of her father's demise. "Lisa Marie was found unresponsive in her bathroom, the same tragic scene where Elvis had been discovered," disclosed a close source. This grim parallel extends to her son, Ben, who tragically committed suicide in a bathroom in July 2020.
Years prior to her demise, Presley had undergone bariatric surgery, which reduces the capacity of the intestines. The procedure, meant to help her combat her weight, resulted in long-term tissue damage that ultimately led to a fatal small bowel obstruction, akin to her father's condition.
The coroner's report also confirmed the presence of oxycodone in her bloodstream, indicating she was experiencing stomach pain on the morning of her death. "The parallels between Lisa Marie's life, struggles, and demise and those of Elvis are striking," noted the source.
Elvis Presley's autopsy had revealed his struggle with severe and chronic constipation, resulting in an abnormally extended colon. Medical experts concluded that his dependency on painkillers and opiates had exacerbated his constipation, eventually leading to his untimely death.
Alongside oxycodone, Lisa Marie's toxicology report also revealed traces of buprenorphine, an opioid used to treat opioid overuse. Both medications were prescribed following a cosmetic procedure a few months prior to her passing.
Sources stated that Presley had a "habit of overmedicating, often forgetting her initial dosage and consequently doubling up." This tragic pattern showcases the unfortunate bond between father and daughter, both battling substance dependencies.
Despite these grim parallels, Lisa Marie had expressed a fervent wish not to meet her father's fate. She had been candid about her struggle with weight fluctuations and prescription medications, declaring her intention to not "follow the same path."
In her mid-40s, she managed to lose significant weight, returning to her teenage weight of 118 pounds. Despite later reaching a weight of 250 pounds, she had lost the excess by the time of her last public appearances. Sadly, her concerted efforts to lead a healthier life were not enough to prevent her untimely death, leaving a legacy and a cautionary tale that eerily echoes her father's.
