Lisa Marie Presley had a deeply emotional reason for keeping her son Benjamin’s body on dry ice after his passing.

After her son Benjamin passed away, Lisa Marie Presley kept his body on dry ice for two months for a very heartbreaking reason. Just under four years had gone since the terrible suicide death of her son Benjamin Keough, when Lisa Marie, 54, passed away in January 2023.

Lisa Marie, the sole child of Elvis Presley, departed from her twin children, Harper and Finley Lockwood, who are 16 years old, and her daughter Riley Keough, who is a star of Daisy Jones & The Six. Riley finished a book she had written, From Here to the Great Unknown, and it was published on October 8 following her death.

In her memoir, Lisa Marie discussed Benjamin’s sudden passing in 2020 and disclosed that she had held his body for two months before burying him in a casita bedroom. As she had explained to her father, Elvis Presley, “there is no law in California that requires someone to be buried immediately,” and she felt it was important to give Benjamin the time she needed to say goodbye.

Lisa Marie was just nine years old when Elvis passed away, so having his body at home and being able to visit and talk with him had been consoling. Throughout that time, she kept Benjamin’s remains at 55 degrees while debating whether to bury him in Graceland or Hawaii.

She acknowledged in the biography, “I became so accustomed to him being there, taking care of him… I was grateful that I could continue to raise him until I was ready to say goodbye, even if it was only for a short while longer.

Woman tries to take her seat on a plane, but she refuses, and what happens next has the internet is divided

Air travel isn’t a universally pleasant experience, with individuals adopting different strategies to ensure their comfort. One woman, in particular, was determined to prioritize her well-being during a cross-country journey, prompting a clash of perspectives.

This traveler, cognizant of her need for comfort, always booked an extra seat to accommodate her size. Ahead of her Christmas trip to be with family, she ensured her journey would be as comfortable as possible by paying extra for the additional space.

Smooth check-in and boarding processes unfolded until she settled into her seat, where her tranquility was disrupted. Seated next to her was a woman with an 18-month-old child, eyeing the unoccupied seat and requesting that the woman compress herself into one seat, allowing her toddler to take the other. The woman, having paid for both seats, refused to compromise on her comfort.

The situation garnered attention, drawing a flight attendant to intervene. Despite the mother’s request for an extra seat, the flight attendant sided with the woman who had paid for both, suggesting that the child be held in the mother’s lap, an approach common for young children. Throughout the flight, the mother made her displeasure evident through disdainful looks and passive-aggressive comments.
