It was recently reported by Us Weekly, that one of the requests made during the settlement of the legal battle was denied. Priscilla had asked to be buried next to her former husband Elvis Presley at Graceland, in addition to an undisclosed amount of money, however, the petition was not approved.

Despite the negotiations, Priscilla revealed that all “confusion” has been cleared and the family is now “stronger” than ever. “As a family, we are pleased that we resolved this together,” She said to ET. “My family and I hope that everyone will grant us the privacy we have needed to properly grieve Lisa Marie and spend personal time together.”
