Elvis Presley’s granddaughter, Riley Keough, recently offered rare insight into one of the most private areas of Graceland—the upstairs rooms, which remain off-limits to the public. In several recent interviews, Riley described how she and her mother, Lisa Marie Presley, would sometimes get “stuck upstairs” when tours were happening, quietly waiting for the crowds to clear.
According to Riley, the rooms upstairs—including Elvis’s bedroom and bathroom—have been left exactly as they were. Personal belongings, his bed, books, and even a collection of cherished items remain untouched, preserved as if time stood still. She noted that stepping into those spaces still feels deeply emotional, saying, “you can really feel his presence.”
She shared memories of spending time there during childhood visits—eating McDonald’s breakfasts, playing, and even using Priscilla Presley’s old hair dryer. Though these spaces are not on display, they have remained a meaningful part of family tradition and reflection.
As the sole trustee of Graceland, Riley Keough continues to protect and honor the personal side of Elvis’s legacy. Her glimpses into the private upstairs quarters remind fans that beyond the legend, Graceland remains a home—filled with history, love, and deep personal significance.
