I like the creative aspect of developing a project.
I don't feel like a grandmother. I don't.
I don't want to be someone's entertainment.
You know, you know, obviously, if my daughter's happy, you know, then I don't have any problem.
When you live life and you are living the experience, you tend not to appreciate them as you are living them. It's only when you look back and realize how special they were.
No one has really heard my side of the story, the adventure we had together, the transformation that I had going from a schoolgirl to a woman overnight.
There were the phone calls and Elvis had asked me to visit him in Los Angeles. This was in 1962.
As a person, he was wonderful. He really was a great person. He was full of life. He had a great sense of humor. Very talented, of course, but very caring to his parents. There was a very endearing quality about Elvis.
You know, I had my mother and my father convincing me that he would be going back to Hollywood and he'd be back with the actresses and dating them and that he wasn't serious about me at all. So I had him saying one thing to me and my parents telling me something else.
She would go to Memphis and this was after our divorce. And I would send her to Memphis to be with him.
Yes, the divorce was difficult. It was difficult.
I lived a really wonderful life with this man and even after our divorce, it was incredible.
It's not that, you know, when a relationship doesn't work and there are issues, you have to somehow work it out if there are children involved.
At times he could be very critical. He didn't like prints on me. He didn't like stripes. He didn't like boldness. He said I was petite and that was taking away from my looks.
