Even though Priscilla hasn’t remarried, that doesn’t mean she hasn’t been in love with other people since Elvis. She has, in fact, had several relationships with men from various backgrounds, though notably, none of them were rock stars.

Although the former couple project an image of eternal happiness to the outside world, they face many challenges behind closed doors. Elvis’ reported affair was widely documented and, unsurprisingly, eventually led to the breakdown of their marriage. However, Priscilla, by her own admission, also admitted her own infidelity.

In her memoirs, the actress admitted to having an affair with Mike Stone, a martial arts teacher famous for training with legends such as Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee. She revealed that Stone instilled in her a “new confidence” she had never experienced before. However, when she revealed the affair to her husband, Elvis, he reacted with anger and reportedly expressed a desire to kill Stone.

Priscilla later confirmed this during an interview with Barbara Walters.

“At the time, he wanted it to happen,” he admitted. Fortunately, those close to Elvis were able to stop him from taking such a drastic action, and the King eventually relented, stating, “Ouch. Let it be now. Maybe it’s a bit heavy.”

According to British media, Priscilla and Terry O’Neill’s relationship was often interrupted by jealous calls from her ex, Elvis, who would call them all the time. The couple decided to end their brief relationship after just two months together.

One of Priscilla’s most surprising romances was with Robert Kardashian, the controversial defense attorney in the OJ Simpson murder trial. After breaking up with Kris Jenner, he fell in love with the actress.

Although their relationship was strong, Priscilla rejected Kardashian’s marriage proposal, citing, “I’m not going to marry anyone until Elvis dies.”

Elvis was reportedly jealous, expressing concern for their daughter, Lisa Marie.

Priscilla went on to model and act Michael Edwards for about six years, hairstylist Elie Ezerzer for two years, and film producer and entrepreneur Marco Garibaldi for over two decades.

Priscilla also reflected on her “big fear”, breaking the news to her daughter, Lisa Marie, who was just 9 years old at the time.

Priscilla also shared an insight into what first drew her to Elvis, highlighting his sharp sense of humor. The two first crossed paths at a party in West Germany in 1959 when she was 14 and he was 24.

“He would walk into the room and it was like, ‘Wow,'” Priscilla said of Elvis. “I mean, he didn’t realize what he had as far as his looks or what he felt or his charisma, but there were a few times when he came over and he said, ‘D–n, I’m good-looking,’ joking, when he was in his bathroom and he will get ready to go somewhere, but he has a great sense of humor.
