    First responders on the scene were able to assist Lisa in regaining a pulse after commencing CPR shortly after giving her at least one shot of adrenaline to help her regain a pulse, according to TMZ.

    The terrifying incident comes just days after Elvis' widow Priscilla and their only child Lisa attended the Golden Globe Awards on Tuesday night (January 10).

    Lisa and her mum attended the awards ceremony in Hollywood to witness actor Austin Butler win an award for his portrayal of Elvis in his 2022 biopic.

    The pair burst into tears as they watched Austin collect his Best Actor award, before saying he would love both Lisa and Priscilla "forever" in an emotional speech.

    Speaking on stage, he said: "I also want to thank our incredible producers and Warner Bros and the Presley family, thank you guys, thank you for opening your hearts, your memories, your home to me.

    "Lisa Marie, Priscilla, I love you forever."

    Singer Lisa Marie, who was once married to Michael Jackson, had previously been the owner and operator of Elvis Presley Enterprises until she sold the business in 2005.

    However, she was the owner of his famous estate in Memphis, Graceland, which sees thousands of tourists flock to his former home every year.

    In recent years, she was open about her trauma after suffering the loss of her son Benjamin Keough in 2020 aged just 27.

    Speaking on National Grief Awareness Day, she explained that she was "destroyed" but kept going for her "girls".

    Lisa Marie was just nine years old when her famous dad died in 1977 and was marked out in his will to inherit his assets upon her 25th birthday.

    Her son, Benjamin Keough, died on July 12 2020 at the age of 27 in Calabasas, California, of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

    The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office listed his cause of death as a suicide.
