Priscilla Presley's memoir, "Life after Elvis," is set to reveal a surprising secret about her past relationship with the late Robert Kardashian. The upcoming memoir, titled "Softly, As I Leave You: Life after Elvis," is scheduled for release on September 23, 2025. In the book, Priscilla candidly reflects on her romance with the Hollywood attorney during the 1970s, describing him as a sweet man whom she liked.
According to Priscilla, she and Robert Kardashian crossed paths through a mutual acquaintance while she was still navigating the aftermath of her divorce from Elvis Presley and a breakup with karate instructor Mike Stone. Their relationship was characterized by tenderness and love, but Robert's demanding career and long work hours posed challenges. Despite his desire for marriage, Priscilla wasn't ready to commit to that level of domesticity at the time.
Priscilla reminisces about a moment when Elvis called her at 2 A.M. while she was in bed with Robert, highlighting the potential volatility of the situation due to Elvis's possessiveness and penchant for carrying a gun. An insider revealed that Priscilla's memoir doesn't shy away from exploring the complexities of her past experiences, portraying her as vulnerable and honest. While her time with Robert was brief, it held significant meaning for her.
Priscilla, known for her previous book "Elvis and Me," is now delving deeper into her life beyond Graceland in her latest memoir. The upcoming book promises to peel back the layers of her public persona and offer readers a more intimate glimpse into her personal journey.
