A day after the shocking death of Elvis Presley’s only child, Lisa Marie Presley, the late singer was remembered by the Elvis film director Baz Luhrmann and his star, Austin Butler.
“My heart is completely shattered for Riley, Finley, Harper and Priscilla by the tragic and unexpected loss of Lisa Marie,” Butler said in a statement. “I am eternally grateful for the time I was lucky enough to be near her bright light and will forever cherish the quiet moments we shared. Her warmth, her love and her authenticity will always be remembered.”
Luhrmann responded in an Instagram post: “For the past year, the entire Elvis film family and I have felt the privilege of Lisa Marie’s friendly embrace. Her sudden, shocking loss has devastated people all over the world. I know her fans everywhere are praying with me to share love and support for her mother, Priscilla, and her wonderful daughters Riley, Finley, and Harper. Lisa Marie, we will miss your warmth, your smile, your love.”
Both Luhrmann and Butler were at the Golden Globes with Presley on Tuesday night and attended a pre-Globes party on Sunday night.
