Lisa Marie Presley claimed Scientology chief was ‘out to get her,’ sent goons her way: New book
Published By admin
Lisa Marie Presley feared Scientology leader David Miscavige was “out to get her” after she quit the church, her mom Priscilla claims in her new book.
The only daughter of Elvis Presley believed she was being followed by Scientology goons on Miscavige’s orders after she stormed into the church HQ in Clearwater, Florida, to confront him, an incident believed to have happened in 2013.
Although Lisa was, for a long time, a devout Scientologist she had actually been investigating the church for years before her dramatic exit that same year, Priscilla claims in her memoir, “Softly, As I Leave You“.
“Her misgivings reached a crisis,” Priscilla writes, when Miscavige “disconnected from his father [Ron Miscavige] and put him in the equivalent of a Scientology prison at a secluded location in the San Bernardino Mountains … Lisa had had enough. Fearless and angry, my daughter walked into the eye of the storm and confronted David directly. She told him with great anger and passion just how she felt about him ‘disconnecting’ from his father. Lisa was never subtle when she was angry.”
However, “The aftermath was frightening for her,” Priscilla confesses. “She called me from Florida after her visit to headquarters and said, ‘Mom, I’m so scared. I gave it to David, and now they’re following me. There are black limos parked outside my house and following me around. This is real. This is what they do.’”
A Scientology rep tells Page Six that Priscilla’s account was “false,” adding that Lisa Marie had never told this story in her own memoir.
“Before her passing, Lisa Marie came to the Church and apologized for any previous upsets, explaining that she had been misled and betrayed by others, including Ron Miscavige. She said she had been impaired by drugs and wished to make amends,” the rep claims.
The rep added the church had tried to help the Presley family through “many years of struggle” with “compassion and support.”
