Riley Keough pays tribute to her late mother Lisa Marie Presley on the anniversary of her death.

On Friday, the 34-year-old actress paid tribute to her mother one year after she died aged 54 by posting a sweet throwback photo of the two sharing a moment together on Instagram.

In an adorable clip, Daisy Jones & The Six star and Lisa Marie sat next to each other, smiling. As elementary school-aged Keough, wearing a jumpsuit and side-braided hair, looked directly into the camera in a family photo, her late mother, wearing a ’90s hat, appeared calm as she candidly looked down.

The Golden Globe-nominated artist simply added “❤️” to the title.

Several close friends offered their support in the comments. Keough’s friend and Zola Kosta Taylour Paige responded with a thoughtful message that read, “Beauties ❤️,” while her stylist Jamie Mizrahi replied, “I love you so much ri ri ❤️.”

Linda Thompson, a family friend and ex-girlfriend of Lisa Marie’s father Elvis Presley, also left a heartfelt comment. “Your mother loved you, your brother and your sister fiercely and devotedly… death does not take away that love, nor our memories,” wrote the singer/actress (73). “I have the best memories of your beautiful mother from when she was 4 and a half years old. She was unusually special, but you already know that. I love her then, now and always. My thoughts and my heart are with you… 💜🙏🏻.”

Priscilla Presley opened up about the ‘unbelievable’ death of daughter Lisa Marie: ‘It’s still not easy’

The singer and only daughter of Elvis and Priscilla Presley died last year on January 12, 2023 at the age of 54 after being hospitalized after suffering a cardiac arrest.

Priscilla, 78, confirmed her death to PEOPLE at the time, saying, “It is with a heavy heart that I have to share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter, Lisa Marie, has left us.”

“She was the most passionate, strong, loving woman I’ve ever known,” the actress continued. “We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this profound loss. Thank you for your love and prayers. There will be no further comment at this time.”

A few months later, it was revealed that the star had died as a result of a small bowel obstruction, a blockage in the small intestine that developed as a complication of bariatric surgery she had received a few years ago.

Several times since her death, Keough has paid tribute to her late mother – who was also the mother of Keough’s brother Benjamin Keough, who died by suicide aged 27 in 2020, and her 15-year-old half-siblings, twins Harper and Finley Lockwood.
