Presley and Jackson became childhood friends after meeting at one of his concerts.
They became friends as adults in 1992 and married in 1994. They both filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences in 1996.
Presley revealed in an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2010 they had spent four years on-and-off after their split trying to reconcile.
She said: “There was a very profound point in the marriage when he had to make a decision. Was it the drugs and the sort of vampires, or me? And he pushed me away.” She added that by “vampires” she meant “sycophants.”

Presley added, “The one thing that correlates with Michael and with my father on this subject is that they had the luxury of creating whatever reality around them they wanted to create.”
Asked in a 1995 interview with Diane Sawyer about the child abuse allegations surrounding Jackson’s inappropriate relationships with children, Presley said: “I know that he’s not like that.”
Allegations of child sex abuse against Jackson - who died in 2009 aged 50 - recently resurfaced in the HBO documentary Leaving Neverland.
