Lisa Marie Presley will be buried beside her son, Benjamin Keough
According to her daughter Riley Keough's rep, Lisa Marie Presley will be buried at Graceland beside her son, Benjamin, who died in 2020 by suicide.
On January 12, Lisa's mother, Priscilla Presley, took to her Twitter handle to ask for prayers and wishes for her daughter, who was rushed to the hospital. The post said:
"We feel the prayers from around the world, and ask for privacy during this time."
According to Daily Mail, Lisa, Elvis and Priscilla Presley's only daughter, suffered a cardiac arrest at her California home and was rushed to the hospital.

Later that evening, Priscilla Presley released a statement via People Magazine announcing her "beautiful daughter" Lisa Marie's passing. The statement said:
“She was the most passionate strong and loving woman I have ever known. We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this profound loss. Thank you for the love and prayers. At this time there will be no further comment.”
