Linda Thompson Opens Up About Her Relationship with Elvis Presley

Meeting and Dating Elvis
Linda met Elvis in 1972, shortly after his divorce from Priscilla Presley. Their chemistry was immediate, and she soon moved into Graceland. Their relationship was complex—lover, friend, and confidante—but also marked by Elvis’s growing health struggles.

Caring for Elvis
Linda often watched over Elvis as his health declined due to prescription medications and other issues. She rushed him to the hospital in 1975 for liver problems, and by the end of that year, she decided to leave and focus on her own life.

Final Days and Legacy
Though they parted ways, Linda remained in contact until days before his death. On August 16, 1977, she received the heartbreaking news that Elvis had passed away. Through her stories and memories, Linda continues to honor the man behind the music.
