Riley Keough’s Daughter Tupelo Signs Lisa Marie Presley Book Inserts

Riley Keough is getting her 2-year-old daughter, Tupelo, involved in the family business.

“A few of you might just get a very exclusive, special edition copy of FROM HERE TO THE GREAT UNKNOWN signed by Tupelo,” Keough, 35, captioned a TikTok video earlier this week, referring to the book she cowrote with her late mom, Lisa Marie Presley.

In the clip, Keough signed book inserts, which included a photo of her and Presley. As the camera panned over to the floor, Tupelo could be seen scribbling on one of the images as well.

Keough shares her daughter with husband Ben Smith-Petersen. Us Weekly confirmed in January 2023 that couple — who have been married since 2015 — secretly welcomed Tupelo via surrogate. In From Here to the Great Unknown, which was published on Tuesday, October 8, Keough revealed that her daughter was born in August 2022.

After Lisa Marie Presley’s death in 2023, her eldest daughter, Riley Keough, picked up where she left off and completed her memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown. In the leadup to the book’s October 2024 release, Keough spoke publicly about her mom for the first time since Presley’s death, opening up about her mom’s […]

“My mom instantly became obsessed with Tupelo — she felt she had a special connection with her, so she’d come over to my house in Silver Lake and take her away to be alone with her,” Keough wrote in the book, noting that she would “watch through the window” as Tupelo and Presley interacted.

Presley started writing her memoir prior to her January 2023 death at age 54. Keough later finished and published the book, and their points of view are highlighted using different fonts.

While Keough recalled the “love” Presley had for Tupelo, the Daisy Jones & The Six star knew her mother was still deeply saddened by the loss of her son, Benjamin Keough, who died by suicide in July 2020 at age 27.

According to Riley, her brother was throwing a party at Prelsey’s Calabasas home when he “went upstairs” at 3:30 a.m. for a beer. He was discovered an hour later, and Riley was the first to find out about her brother’s death. She told Presley before calling her dad, Danny Keough.

Elvis Presley was a music icon through the years, and his family became just as legendary. The “Jailhouse Rock” crooner, who rose to fame in 1950s, died in August 1977 at the age of 42. His only daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, had been the one to discover his passing before calling his ex-girlfriend Linda Thompson. […]

“Despite all this love she still had inside her, and all of her effort to live, we could all see it,” she wrote. “We all knew my mom was going to die of a broken heart.”

However, Presley spent time with her granddaughter while she could.

“She looked at Tupelo and the first thing she said was, ‘Ben Ben brought me to you,’” Riley recalled of Presley. “My mom would call Tupelo ‘our little light,’ would look in her eyes and say, ‘Bless her sweet little feisty heart.’”
