Priscilla Presley swears she wasn’t having sex with Elvis at 14

Priscilla Presley is once again setting the record straight about her relationship with her late ex-husband, Elvis Presley, insisting that they didn’t sleep together when she met him at age 14.

Speaking to the press Monday at the Venice Film Festival, the 78-year-old actress grew emotional before the screening of the new Sofia Coppola drama “Priscilla,” based on Presley’s 1985 memoir “Elvis and Me.”

In video obtained by TMZ, Presley admits that her parents had a hard time understanding why Elvis would be interested in her. But she said she was a “listener,” and the megastar would “pour his heart out” to her.

“I was the person who really sat there to listen and to comfort him,” she explains. “That was really our connection. Even though I was 14, I was actually a little bit older in life, not in numbers, and that was the attraction.”

Presley continues, “People think, ‘Oh, it was sex, it was this.’ Not at all. I never had sex with him. He was very kind, very soft, very loving. But he also respected the fact I was only 14 years old. We were more in mind and thought and that was our relationship.”

The two met when Priscilla Presley was 14 and Elvis was 24.

Presley added during Monday’s presser that she “never gave him up” in “any way” and didn’t tell people at school that she was seeing him.

They married when she was 21, in 1967, with Presley reporting in her memoir that she was a virgin until her wedding.

Presley said she left the relationship when the lifestyle became too difficult for her, but added that she and Elvis remained extremely close even after their 1973 divorce.

Elvis died in 1977 of a heart attack at his home in Memphis, Tennessee. He was 42.

The couple’s only child, Lisa Marie Presley, sadly passed away on Jan. 12 after suffering complications of bariatric surgery.

“Priscilla” is set to premiere in theaters on Oct. 27.

Actress Cailee Spaeny, 25, plays Priscilla and Jacob Elordi, 26, plays Elvis.

The film received a seven-minute standing ovation at the Venice Film Festival, moving Presley to tears, according to Variety.

In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter last month, Presley said she feels “so nervous” about the public seeing the film, but felt like Coppola was someone she could trust.

Coppola, 52, comes from a famous family of filmmakers.

“I just got who she was, and I felt that she could get me,” Presley told the outlet.

“I thought, we have different stories, but she could understand this better than any writer because she kind of lived it in her own way.”

The Post reached out to Presley’s representatives for comment.

In the same interview, she also denied ever being on bad terms with her granddaughter Riley Keough amid a highly publicized legal battle over the trust left behind by Lisa Marie, Keough’s mother.

Shortly after Lisa Marie died, Priscilla filed a petition disputing a 2016 amendment to Lisa Marie’s will that had removed her as co-trustee and put Riley and her brother, Benjamin Storm Presley Keough, in charge.

Benjamin died in 2020 by suicide.

Keough was later named sole trustee of Lisa Marie’s estate and the new owner of Graceland.
