Lisa Marie Presley, the only daughter of "King" Elvis Presley, died on Thursday January 12 at the age of 54.

The singer had a lot of talk about her in the 1990s, when she married the king of pop Michael Jackson.

Their union only lasted two short years and Lisa Marie Presley flatly refused to have children with the "Thriller" singer. 

His life will have been short but particularly intense.

Struck by a heart attack at the age of 54, Lisa Marie Presley led a life quite simply out of the ordinary.

It was hard to imagine an ordinary fate for him, his father being none other than the King, Elvis Presley.

It is therefore quite naturally that another "King" was part of his life: Michael Jackson, the King of Pop. 

"I dedicate my life to my role as a wife"

Lisa Marie Presley, a fan of the

Thriller

singer , did everything to meet him and become close to him.

Friends at first, the daughter of Elvis and Michael Jackson fell in love in the early 1990s. Lisa Marie was then still married to musician Danny Keough, with whom she had two children: Benjamin Keough and Riley Keough.

She asked for a divorce in 1993 and married, a year later, the king of pop, in the Dominican Republic.

"I dedicate my life to my role as a wife. I understand and support it. We can't wait to build a family," Lisa Marie wrote in a statement.

And it was Elvis' daughter who changed her mind, certainly because of the singer's addiction problems, which quickly made her predict the worst: a separation.

"I was looking to the future and I thought I never wanted to fight him for custody," Lisa Marie Presley explained in an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2010. "I wanted to make sure that he and I we were truly united."

“Before we got married, she promised me that we would have children”

Michael Jackson, he wanted to have children, and would therefore have very badly experienced the refusal of Lisa Marie Presley.

"Before we got married, she promised me that the first thing we would do was have children," the star said in a series of recordings unveiled by

The Mirror.

"So I was heartbroken and walking around with little dolls in my arms all the time and crying. I was determined to have kids."

His wish came true very quickly after his divorce from Lisa Marie Presley in 1996. The singer remarried directly to another woman, Debbie Rowe, whom he had met 15 years earlier.

The latter gave birth to two children: Michael Joseph Jackson, nicknamed Prince, born February 13, 1997,
