Priscilla Presley just popped up in Mallorca, Spain, rocking an all-red look that turned heads.
The 81-year-old actress and author hadn’t been spotted in public since March, so this appearance on July 30 felt like a big deal. She wore a fiery red long-sleeve dress with a wrap style waist and a round neckline, paired with a matching Aigner purse that costs a whopping $1,039. Her hair was straightened into a sleek auburn style, and she topped the whole look off with a bold red lip. She even added a half-moon pendant necklace to finish things up. 🌹
Before this, the last time cameras caught her was back in March at the opening of the Elvis Memphis Mansion museum over in Denmark. Priscilla and Elvis were married for six years total, and together they had their only child, Lisa Marie, who sadly passed away in 2023 at just 54 years old.
Even though Priscilla and Elvis split up in 1973, she never really walked away from his legacy. After he died in 1977, she basically dedicated her whole life to keeping his memory going strong. She actually helped start Elvis Presley Enterprises, the company that still runs his estate and all his stuff today.
People forget sometimes just how young Priscilla was when all this started with Elvis.
In her 2025 memoir, Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis, she opened up about what their relationship was really like behind closed doors. “With me, he was usually gentle and often tender. He was also extremely generous,” she wrote. “He bought me beautiful things, expensive gifts, amazing jewelry. I still wear the diamond cross he gave me. I had much to be grateful for in my marriage.”

She also got real about their age gap in the book, something people have talked about for years. Priscilla was only 14 when she first met Elvis, and by the time they actually tied the knot, she was 21 while he was already 31.
“The problem, of course, was that as I grew into adulthood, the power imbalance created by the age gap with Elvis remained,” she wrote. “It was difficult for us to have a marriage of equals when Elvis was used to being in charge.”
