Oprah to Host Graceland Special Featuring a Riley Keough Interview

Oprah Winfrey is documenting her trip to Elvis Presley’s Graceland, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The media mogul is set to air An Oprah Special: The Presleys – Elvis, Lisa Marie And Riley on CBS this fall, in which she tours the historic estate in Memphis, Tennessee, and interviews Presley’s granddaughter, Riley Keough. The interview comes more than a year after Keough’s mother and Elvis’ only child, Lisa Marie Presley, died on Jan. 12, 2023 at age 54 from natural causes due to the effects of a small bowel obstruction from bariatric surgery.

Before she died, Lisa Marie recorded stories of life for a memoir. Keough worked to compile the recordings into a posthumous memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown, which is set to be released on Oct. 8 via Random House Books, the same day Winfey’s special is scheduled to air.

“Born to an American myth and raised in the wilds of Graceland, Lisa Marie Presley was never truly understood . . . until now,” read the memoir’s announcement back in January. “Before her death in 2023, she’d been working on a raw, riveting, one-of-a-kind memoir for years, recording countless hours of breathtakingly vulnerable tape, which has finally been put on the page by her daughter, Riley Keough.”

The upcoming interview with Keough will include memories of Lisa Marie, as well as never-before-seen family photos, videos and more.

The Presleys – Elvis, Lisa Marie And Riley airs Tuesday, Oct. 8, at 8 p.m. ET on CBS and Paramount+.
