Tragic details of Lisa Marie Presley's death uncovered as Elvis' daughter's 'DNR order' revealed

The tragic details surrounding the death of Lisa Marie Presley's death have been uncovered, with a 'DNR order' revealed. Lisa Marie Presley, 54, was the only child of Elvis Presley and wife Priscilla and passed away earlier this week

Lisa Marie suddenly died on January 12, after her body was found at her home in Los Angeles. The American singer was then rushed to hospital where she sadly passed away.

However, following her tragic death, reports have now emerged to suggest that she suffered a cardiac arrest at her home, The Mirror reports. She is then understood to have had a second one en-route to hospital, by which point her family had already ordered a DNR.

TMZ reports: “Lisa Marie Presley's heart stopped a second time after she was hospitalised, but due to her hopeless condition her family had already ordered doctors not to resuscitate her.”

The outlet claims a source told them: “Lisa Marie had been pronounced brain dead after she was admitted to the hospital Thursday… doctors put her in an induced coma and she was on life support.” The source added: “family members signed a DNR ... do not resuscitate order, in case she flatlined again.”

Following Lisa Marie’s tragic passing, tributes have been flooding in from across family and friends. Her "heartbroken" ex-husband, Nicholas Cage - to whom she was married from 2002 until 2004 - says the star had: “the greatest laugh of anyone I ever met. She lit up every room."

Australian filmmaker Baz Luhrmann, who directed 2022's Elvis biopic, stated: “Over the last year, the entire Elvis movie family and I have felt the privilege of Lisa Marie’s kind embrace. Her sudden, shocking loss has devastated people all around the world.

“I know her fans everywhere join me in sharing prayers of love and support with her mother, Priscilla, and her wonderful daughters Riley, Finley and Harper. Lisa Marie, we will miss your warmth, your smile, your love.”

Reports have stated that Lisa Marie will be buried at Graceland, where Elvis resided. It is believed she will be laid to rest next to the body of her son, Benjamin Keough.
