Priscilla Presley

Priscilla Presley (born May 24, 1945) is an actress and was the wife of the popular singer Elvis Presley. They were divorced in 1973 (Elvis Presley died in 1977). She and Elvis are the parents of singer Lisa Marie Presley.

Born Priscilla Ann Wagner in Brooklyn, New York, Priscilla was the daughter of a United States Air Force officer stationed in West Germany while Elvis was stationed there during his stint in the United States Army. They met when she was only 14 years old, but Elvis continued his courtship for eight years, until she consented to marry him on May 1st, 1967.

Her biological father, James Wagner, died shortly after she was born. Her mother remarried Paul Beaulieu, hence her maiden name is quoted as being Priscilla Beaulieu.

Priscilla Presley portrayed Jenna Wade on the soap opera Dallas from 1983 to 1988, and starred opposite Leslie Nielsen in the spoof movie The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad
