In the year 2016, Priscila went to the television show “Loose Woman” on ITV. At the time, she said that Elvis always demanded that she wear makeup all the time and refused to see her if she was without makeup. In addition, she also said that she followed this rule for the entire time they were married.
According to Priscila, the rock star wouldn't even accept seeing her while she was putting on makeup, because, in fact, she should always be ready for him. The same can be said about her clothes and hair, as Priscila should always be impeccable for her husband, which for her was very exhausting.
Furthermore, Priscila says that Elvis' desire was to transform her into an ideal wife, the way he dreamed of his whole life. She attributes this behavior to the star's southern upbringing, which teaches that there is only one right girl who should retire for marriage. So Elvis was always looking to shape her in some way.
The Marriage Story of Elvis Presley and Priscila
Since the beginning of their life together, the couple Elvis and Priscila drew a lot of attention, starting with the huge age difference. After all, they met when Priscila was only 14 and he was 24, in 1959. However, the wedding came only in 1967, when Priscila was already 21 years old and the rock star was 31.
However, the marriage did not last long, lasting only four years. Thus, they divorced in 1972, and one of the reasons may have been Elvis' demand for Priscila's appearance. To this day, Priscila tells how all these demands made her unable to develop her own personality.
