Just get a freaking divorce from Elvis. And after she left Elvis she went on every talk show bashing Elvis , I am 80 I saw it unfold. And through it all Elvis never spoke bad about her. He held her hand at the divorce court. And this was her second affair, soon after having Lisa she was hitting her married dance instructor Steve Peck. No open heart for these two. I was married 28 years and respected my husband enough to tell him when I wasn't doing well. She met him at 14 and went to Graceland at almost 18 and married at 21. This is so much BS.
@@undefined-x8h Totally 💯 agree with you!! Some women Don’t need nor want fame and fortune!! I’d have been happy too as long as he was coming home to me!! 😅
Your wife was pregnant when you walked out on her! You thought nothing of making your wife look like a fool having Priscilla over while you where having an affair with her! You and Priscilla deserve each other!!
and when he went to Elvis concert and let Elvis ask to his fans to applause him : August 1971 they were already having an affair. Who knows ALL the reasons why Elvis could not believe that this affair was true ...
I don’t care how he justifies leaving his pregnant wife and his child and bringing that woman to meet his wife 😡 THEN she had a big argument with stone AND she had the nerve to phone ELVIS to say she wanted to come back 😂🤣 well he told her in no uncertain terms NO 😂 as far as I’m concerned they are both snakes in the grass
Maybe there was no fight and she was just testing Elvis. Mike said before they never had a fight. So someone is lying. These men who admired Elvis you would think his wife would be off limits. There is no honor among thieves.
Before this book ever came out, he announced that if there are any negative things people want to know about Priscilla not to read his book. He is still in love with her and has protected her since they met. His wife was pregnant and had another child when he was seeing Priscilla. He let his wife and he and Priscilla were often seen together flaunting their relationship while still married to Elvis. The gossip magazines had their pictures with him often saying "who is Priscilla's new boyfriend ". She humiliated Elvis the whole time, I lived it and hated it. I am 80 and saw the hateful way she carried on this second affair in broad daylight. Her first affair was only 6 weeks after she had Lisa and was having an affair with her dance instructor Steve Peck. She could have just ask for a divorce from Elvis, but no she hung on to the marriage getting the most impact. Lying and continuing to wreck Elvis image even through her movie Priscilla, saying he was a pedo and a rapist. She is not a good honest person, that's why all these "Defending Elvis " channels have popped up. The very fact that there were less people at Elvis week may be contributed to her awful fairytale movie making her a martyr and a victim. she also leaves out how she put 12 year old Lisa Marie in Scientology while controlling her daughters money and life. All one needs to do is read "Child Bride" and learn who she really is.
He said he wouldn't say anything against her but he CONVICTS her!! Elvis fans have said for years that she just used Elvis for fame and to get into show business and he is just confirming it!
@@saphireblue3563 Indeed, that's exactly what Stone said. Remember that Prissy Golddigger told Barbara Walters that her mother had told her that "knowing someone like Elvis Presley was the chance of a lifetime"! Mother Ann called Prissy after a moviestar called Priscilla whom she admired. Ann wanted her daughter Prissy to become a rich moviestar. I don't think Stone is a bad guy but he did treat his wife Fran and his daughter Shelley very badly. Leaving a pregnant wife because someone rich and famous lusts after you is very opportunistic. Was Stone in love with Prissy Golddigger? Or was he just flattered by her attention because she was married to Elvis Presley?
Mike knew exactly what he wanted, Priscilla. And Priscilla wanted him, neither considered the consequences of breaking up their marriages. It was all underhand. Mike claims he was so busy perusing his career and the hours he had to commit to make it successful. He certainly found the time to have an affair with Priscilla and not spend much needed time with his wife and family. Mmm…….
Exactly. And, after all these years, he's still trying to "save face." Didn't Prissy borrow $50,000 from Elvis to give to Mike S. so he could start his karate studio in Hawaii? I don't think that money was ever repaid. Also, I find it interesting, that he insisted that it was about 5 months before they hooked up. I'm sorry. I just doubt that. Prissy, who waited only weeks after giving birth before she started her first affair and who told Barbara Walter's in 1985 that "I guess I just needed it" waited 5 months. I'm just not buying that. Not to mention, during his first interview with Dave, he said that Prissy just "inserted" herself into the middle of the conversation that he was having with several other people. She tends to be aggressive and goes after what she wants.
Okay, Steve, I gave Mike a chance until 18.22 because he is not truthful. If Priscilla was in a Dungeon (his word) at 18, then why did she marry Elvis? She was never held in bondage; she had freedom to leave, but didn’t by choice even after learning that the MM were just as important as she was to Elvis. Also, I want to finish by saying, yes life has cycles and rhythms, yes we all experience cycles differently within our relationships BUT once our heart changes to no longer love the person we claim, or married to, a mature woman would ask for a divorce AND not cheat (with a married man) because now that woman is disrespectful to the lover’s wife as well. Elvis cheated but not with another man’s wife. Priscilla is phony and Mike is calculating the book sales.
Mike Stone said it best, she wanted to be a movie star, a wealthy woman and an Icon Like Elvis. She said Elvis was standing in her way. That's why she married him, that's why she writes books, and did that awful movie, It's about her and her martyr status, Her own daughter couldn't stand her when she died.
Priscilla asked the fans to wish Elvis a happy birthday during the commemoration for the anniversary of his death a couple of years ago. That says a lot.
She wasn't suffering from dementia when she did her hatchet job book, TV series, or recent movie. And at the end of the day, her own daughter had her pegged.
I’m sorry but I can’t take him seriously when he said he gave Lisa the happiest years of her life lol. Let’s ask Lisa and see if she agrees with that, I bet you I already know the answer
yes and sadly we will never know as she passed way to early like her dad but before her death Lisa said in many interviews how she loved Graceland and her dad and all the fun and memories they shared and when she was in Memphis after his death she stayed at the house
She was a shy of 22 years young, marrying him, and she knew what it was to live in a covered mansion w/o any flexibility. So, what was she thinking, knewing Elvis for so many years. Priscilla was also destroying the marriage of Mike Stone's marriage.
@@user-rx4gi2mh7h 😂🤣 no she wasn’t living in a covered mansion w/o any flexibility… she went out anywhere she wanted to go… Elvis gave her a car so she had her freedom… she went to dance classes ( you no the one, she was in his bed 6 weeks after Lisa Marie was born) so please don’t say she was a like a prisoner Because she wasn’t… she was a cornniving gold digger
I think he was correct in being suspicious of her motives - driving 60 miles, not once or twice a week, but every day. She really pursued him. I think he was totally used.
Thought she was a prisoner no identity of her own no freedom what a joke if people are daft enough to believe her lies that’s up to them she a predator when she wants someone she makes sure she gets them
@undefined-x8h No Lisa would have been looked after by a Maid or one of the other wives. Not justifying this but there is no way Priscilla would have taken her on a 120 mile round trip
This was a great interview, Steve. Thanks for sharing this with us 👍 Priscilla appears to be quite the manipulator, she put the "moves" on Mike Stone just like she did to Elvis (and everyone else in between!). She certainly knew how to manipulate men for her monetary gain/fame. ELVIS FOREVER 👑❤️👑
just the beginning is enough for me. the only thing I notice is that Lisa Marie's memoirs are going to come out and Priscilla Beaulieu and this gentleman are releasing their firewall book! minds are not at peace
Exactly....I have the suspicion that "someone" and her team are using every possible card to appear in a good way....we had Sally Hoedel's last video...Priscilla who wants to write her own book about Lisa and now Mike Stone, then suddenly wants to publish his own book talking about Priscilla and Lisa. 🤔 No thanks 👎🏻
@@elvis78aleHaven't listened to this Interview, but was interested in the comments honestly😊.I do remember in his 1st interview Mike Stone explicitly stated bis book was was mainly about him, not so much about P. I admired him for that then. He must have changed his 'tactics'?🙋🏻
@@southerngirl9941 "Elvis" is the name that attracts people. Mike Stone can make money only talking about his relationship with Priscilla and Priscilla knows very well she can make money only talking about her marriage to Elvis. She had lots of men after Elvis, a "big collection" in my opinion. She never talks about them. Nobody cares about her, except for Elvis. And this is the reason she wants to be buried at Graceland, with the hope one day she can have her own "candlelight" to be remembered as a Presley 🤦🏻♀️
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel Yes, but not much. I wonder who paid for their "love shack" that they had for 1 1/2 years prior to their relationship becoming public. I presume Elvis.
@@vicki6070 We know who was paying for that love shack. ... But it now seems to be a common thing among many "Elvis fans" to worry more about the reputation of the people that have done Elvis wrong, than they are against all the slandering towards Elvis himself. Another Elvis channel that hated the Elvis 2022 movie were promoting hard the new book on Parker, which shines a very positive light on the Colonel. Now this channel all in favor of the Mike Stone book, (so that hopefully we can all see that M.S. did nothing wrong). Other channels make whole videos in defense of Priscilla, and are really hurt by what is said about her, but are not concerned one bit about Elvis now being accused of domestic violence, being a sick abuser, and pedophilia, among other things, as a direct result of the latest movie. I don't know, I'm not one of the original fans, but it seems his most loyal fans were the older ones, and there's less and less of them, and now not many stick up for Elvis anymore. Sad.
It’s just sad that everybody is coming out with the book PP Mike stone after Lisa‘s passing that said profiting off of her book and her untimely death. It’s emotional to us having Lisa is not treated with the best respect. Nice interviewer to Mike stone you remain neutral and respect for Steve so thank you my friend
Let's have some common sense. She knew what she was getting into when she married Elvis. They had an affair & now trying to smooth it over. Don't like this guy or her.
It’s just sad that everybody is coming out with the book PP Mike stone after Lisa‘s passing that sad profiting off of her book and her untimely death. It’s emotional to us having that Lisa is not treated with the best respect even now
I see Stone as a double talker. One minute he describes Priscilla as Elvis’ sweet, young victim., who was not permitted to live her own life, and kept in a “dungeon”. The next he is saying that he does not believe there are victims. He also suggests that Priscilla had a plan for herself and that at the end of their relationship he realized (paraphrased) that he was part of her plan but not part of her future. Does he think she became cunning only after she left him but not before leaving Elvis. He speaks of Lisa Marie as though he traded his own daughter for her, that it was Lisa he was able to love and protect. In the same breath, he insists that he would not keep Lisa from Elvis but it’s obvious that he bought Priscilla’s narrative that Elvis is a bad man. Who, other than Elvis was he protecting Lisa from and did he really not know Priscilla’s age when she married Elvis. She was almost 22, not 17-18 as he said. I think that, for Mike Stone, the last straw occurred when Priscilla fought in court to be buried next to Elvis, claiming him as the love of her life. For all these years he had believed the horror stories that she had told him about Elvis and now, she can’t even pronounce or spell Stone’s name. After fifty years, he is ready to talk…I mean double talk. Do you believe in victims now Mike?
In his last three interviews, he has inadvertently exposed Priscilla's real reason for leaving Elvis. She wanted to go into show business, the ambition that she hid from him when she married him. I would not buy the book unless I bought it second hand but I think it will expose Priscilla so I think it is worth reading.
I don’t have a problem reading his book. I’m looking forward to Lisa Marie’s book and I’d be curious to compare. I love Elvis but he had plenty of affairs after they were married & so did she. She made the decision to move on and get a divorce & I believe Elvis eventually moved on himself and lived his life. We all wonder about Priscilla’s relationship with Lisa Marie and why she did what she did shortly after Lisa’s death. He’s right when saying we all do things in life we may regret later but we do need to take responsibility for our actions and move on. I wonder why she never mentioned him again or acted like she didn’t pronounce or spell his name right. She never looks back or takes responsibility for her actions. Perhaps that’s why she hasn’t seemed so happy with her choices. I’ve also watched her interviews and the information keeps changing. Thanks Steve. Great interview. 😊❤❤
Yes she does have a way with rewriting history as do all of the girlfriends with the exception of Ginger and most of the Memphis Mafia. I think the only two that have kept the same stories over the years are Charlie Hodge and Larry Geller.
Why would she mention him again and remind the world of how she betrayed Elvis? She wishes everyone would forget it. She said in her first book that if Elvis had affairs she didn't know it. So no matter what she says now, that is not why she left him.
Something quite special? I guess he doesn't know that it's documented in the divorce papers that Priscilla asked to go back to Elvis and he said 'no' - this was while she was with Stone. She also told Olivier Bis that she would never be with anyone who had less money than her - again, referring to being with Stone. I have no interest in his book - nor Priscilla's hatchet job due for release next year. Wish these people would just give it rest!
If Elvis fans don't read the books we cannot defend Elvis against them. The trick is to buy them second hand or from the library so the author doesn't get your money.
She once said in an interview, "you can't imaging how sweet she can be". But that was way before she found out that Priscilla was dipping way into her money without her knowing it.
Now this guy wrote a book.. Geeze anyone n everyone loves making money off Elvis....This is the guy that was with Priscilla when he was married? VERY INTERESTING...
Yes he was married with a small child and his wife was pregnant. He later said on one of his interviews, "never feel guilty for anything you've done" and on this one, "there is no such thing as victimhood". Shows you that the guy has no ethics at all.
@@saphireblue3563... Fran Stone didn't hold grudges it seems. This is the end of her interview from 1973... " I am not bitter. I have nothing against the girl [Priscilla] I mean, I liked her I still do. I just think it’s time that everybody let everyone else live their own lives.”
poor guy still doesnt realise why him, and what she was really like, she chose him because she knew it would hurt Elvis the most, a Hawaiian karate champion, that's why she sort him out, to destroy Elvis, thankfully he does realise how manipulative she is. She was almost 18 when she moved to Memphis, he still seemed to think she had lived with Elvis since she was 14 and she didn't. Of course Elvis knew, Elvis had a PI following her all the time. he is still so naive, he says cilla wanted a divorce, but cilla phoned Elvis asking to come back, and he said NO and cilla was in Hawaii at the time with Mike. Steve Francis, next time you talk to Mike please let him know that Elvis wanted to give him a TCB necklace to show there was no hard feelings and he knew how manipulative cilla was, according to Dr Nicks book, but the guy dissuaded Elvis from doing so, I wish they hadn't, thanks
Judy Eagle... what an insightful post. I never heard this before, but that would have been soooo Elvis to want to give Mike a TCB chain. I'm bearing my own soul a little here, and can only thus speak personally, but in terms of intimacy, I have always found it practically impossible to get back with a woman, knowing she has been intimate with another man. After the heat, the pain, the confusion has died down.... that thing just simply isn't there anymore. I can't speak for any woman in a similar situation, because I am just a straight guy. But I believe the pain Elvis was in in 72/73 because of the split, when it had receded, left Elvis with no real desire to win Cilla back. This is not mentioned in any of the books, other than a reference from Larry Geller ( If I Can Dream) and which came from Elvis late in the day!!! I hold no claims on this position and bare no animosity whatsoever towards Priscilla Presley. It's just my strong conviction that Elvis would have viewed her with very different eyes ( still lovingly I believe) after knowing what he knew, and when his own ego and inflammatory reactions had calmed down after a couple of years. Who knows, Mike and Elvis could have become firm friends in the 80s, had Elvis lived. They did share an extremely strong passion for the martial arts after all. This interview has been beautifully conducted by Steve ( as always) and Mike's character comes across as very warm, honest and endearing x
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel you'll always have my support my friend. You bring so much light and positivity to a world that seems to be growing increasingly dark . Xx
@@davidjuanlozano503 I think that is what she was doing.Trying to get to Mike before Elvis became friends with him. If Elvis had put Priscilla on a pedestal, one she didn't want to be on. Her relationship with Mike changed all of that.
Becky Yancey refused to follow Priscilla when she proposed her to meet attractive karate champions, she remained married. Joanie Esposito, Nora Fike divorced.
If she told him what she wanted in life( a show business career) he would never have married her and she knew that. That is why she lied to him. Waited just long enough to get the best settlement, left him, got her money and got herself a movie agent.
@@saphireblue3563 Yeah, after so many years of marriage and she's upward towards 30. She had to get things moving along. wow. Divorcing Elvis, just doesn't sound right to me even after all these years.There will never be a divorce, ever.(that's me screaming)
Thanks steve! This interview was alittle cring worthy for me, but it is interesting that wrote this after Lisa Marie passed. Im glad hes got the proper concern for elvis's legacy,but i think he waited alittle to late by releasing this now. Have a good day!
I want to know about Sandy Ferra Martindale. I think she was someone special to Elvis. She says he was with her the day before he got married. The one he met after Priscilla.
@cherylspencer8024 Well she said on an old video that she had dumped Elvis to marry Wink. I thought it was in Elvis' early days, not that late. As for Ann Margret, by that time she was happily married to Roger Smith so I don' t believe that much in that story.
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel I already heard his stories. I have nothing against Mike but I'm not interested in him and Priscilla. They made their choices but sincerely I don't care, because I don't trust any of them. Priscilla in the past was always very careful to ensure that her old lovers never talked about her and their relationship with her (especially after Mike Edwards' book). It seems very strange to me that this book is coming out right now, almost 50 years after their break-up , perhaps selling us the story of poor Priscilla who was always left alone, somehow justifying the beginning of their affair or changing something we have known through others with more lies. Am I prevented? Yes, it could be. This book could have two purposes... to make money, after the release of the two movies and the media attention around the Presley family or to help revive Priscilla's image which is currently no longer seen so well by many. In both cases I find it useless. Obviously it's my humble opinion ..
Interesting interview. Sounds like Priscilla manipulated him as well. He sees it now and doesn't like that P ignores their relationship, pretends it even happened, he wasnt a big deal in her life, cant really remember his correct name. Her narrative isn't accurate. I wonder if he now realizes her narrative if Elvis that she told him way back wasnt accurate either. Makes you think his version of Elvis and P relationship, dungeon, etc might not be real. She did to Mike what she did to Elvis. All and all, the affair happened, im glad he finally speaking out
Mike, just like, like Steve Peck her married dance instructor who she had a affair with only 6 weeks after having Lisa, were all taken in by her sad and lonely Life. CHILD PLEASE. Elvis cousin Billy and his wife Jo, said there was at least 10 people around all the time at Graceland, lonely? Jo said she and Priscilla and Patsy Lacker went to movies and shopping and even threw toilet paper all over the houses down from Graceland on Halloween. Priscilla moved into Graceland a few weeks before her 18 birthday. In her book she makes people believe she was 14 when she went there. Elvis met her when she was 14, but two months later shipped back to the US. He didn't even contact her for over a year, she wrote everyday begging to go to Graceland. Her parents were her groomers and wanted her to marry rich. I am one year older than her, and it was quit common in the 50's to marry your daughter off to an older man who was established and often wealthy. Keep in mind her mother was a fan and heard Elvis was coming to Germany and planned out a way to marry her daughter to the riches man in the world at that time. Priscilla got around she was the bell of her high school dating every night. In fact her parents started to panic when she was almost 18 that she might not get to marry Elvis. THEY sent her to Graceland at almost 18 and she moved in with Elvis father and bride Dee. She saw Elvis lifestyle. she saw all the bodyguards, she also saw that Elvis would probably not be faithful. So she knew he was seeing other women, but married him when she turned 21. She wanted to be an idol like Elvis, so she crafted stories to become a victim and a martyr. Read "Child Bride"
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel So true, it's sad that we live in a world where we now have to doubt the truthfulness and veracity of everything, but that's how it is. And even if it's not intentional, Riley and Lisa are two separate person, Riley could have easily misinterpreted something Lisa was trying to say in her memoir, or come to a different conclusion about an event, and Riley rewriting it differently than what Lisa had intended to. Fact is, it will never be completely Lisa's words.
@@TheEcchoI've read Riley just finished the book that was ready for almost 70/80 %. Let's hope she has not changed a lot of her mother's intentions and real words, just to clean up stories to protect someone from the truth (not necessarily Priscilla and her son, but also Lisa's ex, Scientology or her sisters). But I agree with you; we can't be completely certain that it is the book Lisa would have wanted it to be. 🤷🏻♀️
@@AS-zq5cswe had an example last year 😂 Elvis had a movie with Baz....she immediately had to have hers, telling her "truths". The difference is evident..Baz movie has been a success, hers a total flop. She always tries to reach his same level 😂
I would be very interested to know if Priscilla ever mentioned during her relationship with MS that she was looking for her own religion. In an interview in Women Magazine in 1973, she mentioned that she wanted to give Lisa a religious background and that she already had the religion of science on her radar. I wonder what happened and I would be interested to know if MS can confirm that she was already looking for a religion at that time. Because Priscilla claims to this day that it was the great grief over the death of Elvis that brought her to Scientology. Another piece of bullshit that should be refuted immediately.
I've never heard this excuse...thanks...it sounds very funny 😂😂😂 sometimes I think she chose Scientology because maybe she thought it could open her some "doors" for her career. 🤔
She put Lisa in the cult of Scientology when barely 12. Lisa was lonely and sad while being in their camp for months. Her mother controlled her money and life through the cult. Lisa tried to escape and went to London for two years to get it off her back. Priscilla even hired Scientology Nannys to raise Lisa's children in the cult. Lisa never got over it and fought to get out up into 2016. It's like leaving the mob. Her Son Ben who she tragically lost by suicide told his girlfriend that Scientology had wrecked his brain. It is still a dangerous cult, when Lisa died and left Graceland to her daughters, Priscilla got mad and sued her own granddaughter to get Graceland back. She called in Scientologist John Travolta to mediate for her at the settlement. He got her a million upfront to drop the lawsuit, 400 grand paid court hosts and fees, 100 grand a year to advise Riley on Graceland, 1/9 of the Elvis estate for her son by boyfriend Marco, and a plot next to Elvis, "the love of her Life". Barf.
@@AS-zq5cs Exactly....I think she was introduced into Scientology by other celebrities, as for example John Travolta. It was common back then to give a chance to that new cult but I don't think her first motivation was to find a way to grieve Elvis's death 😂. The last thing that Elvis would have wanted is to have his daughter sent to Scientology.
@@AS-zq5cs no ..they broke up in 1975. I don't know who was next to her in 1977 (in 1976 she broke up with Robert Kardashian too). But in 1978 she started her relationship with Mike Edwards. So it was a few months after Elvis's death. Yes, poor Lisa...
@@AS-zq5cs Terry O'Neill was before Robert K. and lasted only a few months. Kirk Kerkorian followed Robert K. in the Spring '77, and was short-lived; Elie Ezerzer, who she met around 6/77 was next in line, which lasted about a year. She then threw a party in 6/78 and that's when she met Mike E.
Really good interview Steve❤. I wondered who you were going to interview that might be a bit controversial, well Mike Stone fits the bill😊😂. I hear constantly how trapped Priscilla was by Elvis at Graceland during their relationship, and I really hope that Priscilla is able to finally be her own person. Priscilla can take steps to achieve this by freeing herself financially from Elvis' money, and retract her request to be buried as close as possible to her ex-husband in the meditation garden at Graceland. I am not sure yet, l might purchase Mike Stone book.
Great interview, Steve I really believe that Mike and Cilla did fall for eachother but i feel that Mike could have fallen more for her than she did him, one thing that got me interested was when mike said Priscilla wanted a divorce from Elvis well she got her wish, but it makes me angry now she has the Presley name still ,and she swans around the world claiming to be his widow, she is not , She is his EX-WIFE, also giving half of Elvis's money to her druggie son,what for!!!!He is not a PRESLEY! Elvis left everything to LMP not her, then LM naturally left inheritance including GL to HER KIDS, CILLA IS A GREEDY WOMAN!!! ELVIS was grieving his mother at the time they met and he was seeing Anita Wood, Cilla made sure that she got the chance to see Elvis again, no E didnot force her to go to Graceland she wanted to go but her stepfather threatened Elvis saying if their is no marriage, that he would ruin Elvis's career, Elvis had no choice , she thought she could change Elvis but she couldn't, yes i believe she manipulated them both !
She wasn't at Gracelands at the age of 14 she got cosy with CURRY GRANT to get him to meet ELVIS don't forget ELVIS was in the army for 2yearys when she did meet ELVIS she wasn't that innocent
Yes, Mike dumped his pregnant wife and kid to be with the bored Priscilla who had another affair with her dance instructor Steve Peck only weeks after having Lisa. Who does that? Mike said he will never say a negative word about priscilla. OOOKKKK
@@lindajones2884 I know Curry bought Cilla to meet Elvis, but I read once Grant actually had a thing for Cilla, not sure if that's true though, but Cilla pushed her parents to see Elvis again, Elvis was busy in the army and with his career to worry about her, Cilla makes it sound E fell for her ,he didn't not that quick 😉
@@Mary-d5x6g maybe hes worried he will get sued, 🤔 didn't know about the other man, yep she's been around also had an affair with Patrick Duffy her Dallas Co star in the 80s 😏
I love the way this man speaks , he has so much wisdom and knowledge and so much common sense about life that so many don’t have ! Love this man he is still so attractive!
This is at the end of an interview Fran Stone gave in 1973...“ I am not bitter. I have nothing against the girl [Priscilla] I mean, I liked her I still do. I just think it’s time that everybody let everyone else live their own lives.”
@@christinerathbone8886 I'm only interested in the way manipulation works, not if the victims over come it or not (if she did it's of course wonderful for her), I'm afraid that Elvis did not.
It's something we've always known...Priscilla was aiming for Mrs Presley status, she waited years to finally enjoy the spotlight that Elvis enjoyed. She waited for her ring (obtained somehow) and when her dreams of having her own career were shattered because Elvis didn't want that in a wife, she began to be worried and complain. The last thing she wanted was to stay at home being a wife and mother. She always wore a mask, even with Elvis, showing herself as someone she wasn't. Elvis, on the other hand, has always been himself from the beginning. I think he soon realized the truth too. Two people who are truly in love do not look for relationships outside of marriage after a few months. When over the years Priscilla realized that she wouldn't get anywhere with her career, she reused the "he was the love of my life" card, to continue being in the spotlight as a disconsolate widow. Pathetic!!
Very good interview. I feel the same, what happened to these two women, was it money, fame, and excess that did them in? And it certainly was not worth it, yes it is so sad. And how Cilla turned her back on him. I am starting to see why she has so many haters. We can pray for people to get and stay on the right path. Thanks for the interview. My best to Mike.😊❤🎉
Mike sounds like a decent guy and like he says he had to accept responsibility for what he and Priscilla did. Having an affair when a marriage doesn't go right only complicates the situation. An affair is not a good way to end a bad marriage. Stone's word for Priscilla is appropriate...manipulate. I think she has been from the very first time she met Elvis even at 14. It makes me feel even sadder for Lisa Marie she was the definition of poor little rich girl. I guess Mike is setting the record straight...can't blame him. Great interview, Steve. Thank you.
All these comments from people who "know" what Priscilla was thinking, what Mike was thinking, how Elvis felt, and blah, blah, blah ..... you do know you reserve the right to not purchase his book?
This is part of an interview with Mike Stone from 2021... "Phil Spector was actually in attendance at the International Championships in the1964 event, and saw me compete. He asked his karate instructor, Emil Farkas, for my number and contacted me to ask if I would be willing to work with him as a bodyguard. I worked off and on for nearly 5 years"
Couldn’t she just have like him and nothing to due with manipulation, as a woman I find that odd. The more I hear, I find many of his choice of words disturbing, like everything even at 14 was a calculation , I doubt it.
@@nancywalker2256 sure she and her family were not so naive in what they were doing in Germany. I've never believed the story..."my parents were worried". Her parents were well conscious of everything from the beginning, or she would have never been allowed to attend the house of a superstar, full of adults.
Why is it everyone is wrong except Elvis, its because most people loose insight because Elvis is our idol , but we all know Elvis was not perfect , now i must admit in no fan of Pricilla, mike sounds like a nice guy he did no more wrong having an affair with pricilla than Elvis done thousands of time to all his partners , Elvis was never faithful, Elvis is our idol but please he had many faults and was human like us all , in the Elvis world everyone is bad apart from Elvis be it Red or Sunny or dave , be it his father his cousins tom parker all painted badly and Elvis a saint
Sadly true...Elvis had his faults just like everyone else. He was a special human being,extremely talented and greatly missed. There will never be another Elvis that's for sure
Nobody has ever thought that Elvis was a saint. Elvis was full of defects and made a lot of mistakes in his life, as anyone else. This is not the point. But, as an Elvis fan, I could care less about Priscilla and her affair with Mike Stone, especially after 50 years. 😂
It's about Lisa Marie too. Also,it's part of the whole Elvis story...as uncomfortable or uninteresting as you may find it,it happened and it had implications for how the whole story of Elvis life played out
@elvisrevisited, you seem to think you know everything, and yet you do not, even cilla admitted she was the first to cheat on Elvis, not the other way round, Elvis was faithful until after cilla was not, I can't put the magazine cutting here where cilla says it but she does, also Elvis passed a polygraph test to prove he had not cheated. Wow, ''thousands of times'' now there is an overstatement if ever there was, seriously you should do your research. As for Mike Elvis knew it was cilla who manipulated the situation, Elvis actually wanted to give him a TCB necklace to show there were no hard feelings, but the guy, MMs, dissuaded him from doing so, guess you really do not know Elvis as well as you think you do.
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel to me it's bit too late, sorry 🤷🏻♀️ I find it weird every book is coming out now, now that Lisa's book is ready. Every person involved seems to be interested to point out his/her version of the story 🤔 Maybe just a coincidence...
a prescindere dalla bassezza assoluta di pb che si è servita di questa stupido vorrei sapere perchè va ancora in giro a raccontare questa cosa oscena. E' la terza intervista che fa con Steve Francis. E francamente non capisco come mai Steve lo faccia ancora parlare. Siamo proprio caduti in basso.
Okay, Steve, I gave Mike a chance until 18.22 because he is not truthful. If Priscilla was in a Dungeon (his word) at 18, then why did she marry Elvis? She was never held in bondage; she had freedom to leave, but didn’t by choice even after learning that the MM were just as important as she was to Elvis. Also, I want to finish by saying, yes life has cycles and rhythms, yes we all experience cycles differently within our relationships BUT once our heart changes to no longer love the person we claim, or married to, a mature woman would ask for a divorce AND not cheat (with a married man) because now that woman is disrespectful to the lover’s wife as well. Elvis cheated but with another man’s wife. Priscilla is phony and Mike is calculating the book sales.
Just get a freaking divorce from Elvis. And after she left Elvis she went on every talk show bashing Elvis , I am 80 I saw it unfold. And through it all Elvis never spoke bad about her. He held her hand at the divorce court. And this was her second affair, soon after having Lisa she was hitting her married dance instructor Steve Peck. No open heart for these two. I was married 28 years and respected my husband enough to tell him when I wasn't doing well. She met him at 14 and went to Graceland at almost 18 and married at 21. This is so much BS.
I would have never divorced Elvis. He knew where home was. Me and our seven children would have waited for him to come home. Each and every time.
@@undefined-x8h Totally 💯 agree with you!! Some women Don’t need nor want fame and fortune!! I’d have been happy too as long as he was coming home to me!! 😅
@@Sharon-Carrell Exactly.
Your wife was pregnant when you walked out on her! You thought nothing of making your wife look like a fool having Priscilla over while you where having an affair with her! You and Priscilla deserve each other!!
and when he went to Elvis concert and let Elvis ask to his fans to applause him : August 1971 they were already having an affair. Who knows ALL the reasons why Elvis could not believe that this affair was true ...
I don’t care how he justifies leaving his pregnant wife and his child and bringing that woman to meet his wife 😡 THEN she had a big argument with stone AND she had the nerve to phone ELVIS to say she wanted to come back 😂🤣 well he told her in no uncertain terms NO 😂 as far as I’m concerned they are both snakes in the grass
Totally agree!!!!!
Maybe there was no fight and she was just testing Elvis. Mike said before they never had a fight. So someone is lying. These men who admired Elvis you would think his wife would be off limits. There is no honor among thieves.
True, two snakes in the grass.
Before this book ever came out, he announced that if there are any negative things people want to know about Priscilla not to read his book. He is still in love with her and has protected her since they met. His wife was pregnant and had another child when he was seeing Priscilla. He let his wife and he and Priscilla were often seen together flaunting their relationship while still married to Elvis. The gossip magazines had their pictures with him often saying "who is Priscilla's new boyfriend ". She humiliated Elvis the whole time, I lived it and hated it. I am 80 and saw the hateful way she carried on this second affair in broad daylight. Her first affair was only 6 weeks after she had Lisa and was having an affair with her dance instructor Steve Peck. She could have just ask for a divorce from Elvis, but no she hung on to the marriage getting the most impact. Lying and continuing to wreck Elvis image even through her movie Priscilla, saying he was a pedo and a rapist. She is not a good honest person, that's why all these "Defending Elvis " channels have popped up. The very fact that there were less people at Elvis week may be contributed to her awful fairytale movie making her a martyr and a victim. she also leaves out how she put 12 year old Lisa Marie in Scientology while controlling her daughters money and life. All one needs to do is read "Child Bride" and learn who she really is.
@@Mary-d5x6g Good comment!
I just came back from Elvis week - it was packed. Guest House was full as were the surrounding hotels.
He said he wouldn't say anything against her but he CONVICTS her!! Elvis fans have said for years that she just used Elvis for fame and to get into show business and he is just confirming it!
@@saphireblue3563 Indeed, that's exactly what Stone said. Remember that Prissy Golddigger told Barbara Walters that her mother had told her that "knowing someone like Elvis Presley was the chance of a lifetime"! Mother Ann called Prissy after a moviestar called Priscilla whom she admired. Ann wanted her daughter Prissy to become a rich moviestar. I don't think Stone is a bad guy but he did treat his wife Fran and his daughter Shelley very badly. Leaving a pregnant wife because someone rich and famous lusts after you is very opportunistic. Was Stone in love with Prissy Golddigger? Or was he just flattered by her attention because she was married to Elvis Presley?
@@jannekedevries2360 You don't think he's a bad guy? What about what he did to Elvis?
Mike knew exactly what he wanted, Priscilla. And Priscilla wanted him, neither considered the consequences of breaking up their marriages. It was all underhand. Mike claims he was so busy perusing his career and the hours he had to commit to make it successful. He certainly found the time to have an affair with Priscilla and not spend much needed time with his wife and family. Mmm…….
Exactly. And, after all these years, he's still trying to "save face." Didn't Prissy borrow $50,000 from Elvis to give to Mike S. so he could start his karate studio in Hawaii? I don't think that money was ever repaid. Also, I find it interesting, that he insisted that it was about 5 months before they hooked up. I'm sorry. I just doubt that. Prissy, who waited only weeks after giving birth before she started her first affair and who told Barbara Walter's in 1985 that "I guess I just needed it" waited 5 months. I'm just not buying that. Not to mention, during his first interview with Dave, he said that Prissy just "inserted" herself into the middle of the conversation that he was having with several other people. She tends to be aggressive and goes after what she wants.
Okay, Steve, I gave Mike a chance until 18.22 because he is not truthful. If Priscilla was in a Dungeon (his word) at 18, then why did she marry Elvis? She was never held in bondage; she had freedom to leave, but didn’t by choice even after learning that the MM were just as important as she was to Elvis.

Money--- divorce, you get half.
Mike Stone said it best, she wanted to be a movie star, a wealthy woman and an Icon Like Elvis. She said Elvis was standing in her way. That's why she married him, that's why she writes books, and did that awful movie, It's about her and her martyr status, Her own daughter couldn't stand her when she died.
Priscilla asked the fans to wish Elvis a happy birthday during the commemoration for the anniversary of his death a couple of years ago. That says a lot.
Could be dementia onset she is almost 80 I think
@@johnnyrocker7495 Priscilla did that as a nod to the Scientology cult. They believe you are ‘born’ when you die. It was a satanic ritual.
She wasn't suffering from dementia when she did her hatchet job book, TV series, or recent movie. And at the end of the day, her own daughter had her pegged.
@@ketarivera7459 with dementia she would not be able to write her memoir
That says she has a good PR team
I’m sorry but I can’t take him seriously when he said he gave Lisa the happiest years of her life lol. Let’s ask Lisa and see if she agrees with that, I bet you I already know the answer
yes and sadly we will never know as she passed way to early like her dad but before her death Lisa said in many interviews how she loved Graceland and her dad and all the fun and memories they shared and when she was in Memphis after his death she stayed at the house
She was a shy of 22 years young, marrying him, and she knew what it was to live in a covered mansion w/o any flexibility. So, what was she thinking, knewing Elvis for so many years. Priscilla was also destroying the marriage of Mike Stone's marriage.
Prissy couldn't leave Elvis until she got the "ring on her finger" and the last name and only then could she "go find herself." She achieved her goal.
@@user-rx4gi2mh7h 😂🤣 no she wasn’t living in a covered mansion w/o any flexibility… she went out anywhere she wanted to go… Elvis gave her a car so she had her freedom… she went to dance classes ( you no the one, she was in his bed 6 weeks after Lisa Marie was born) so please don’t say she was a like a prisoner Because she wasn’t… she was a cornniving gold digger
But in fact there was plenty of flexibility. She had a car, a bottomless credit card and all the time in the world. How was there no flexibility?

Right, in one direction, a faithful one, what she didn't like.
@@user-rx4gi2mh7h Sorry I don't understand your comment.
In other words she USED Mike.
It seems that she uses everyone!!
I think he was correct in being suspicious of her motives - driving 60 miles, not once or twice a week, but every day. She really pursued him. I think he was totally used.
Thought she was a prisoner no identity of her own no freedom what a joke if people are daft enough to believe her lies that’s up to them she a predator when she wants someone she makes sure she gets them
@@user-vh1ey5dd1q If your husband gave you a car and a bottomless credit card would you feel like a prisoner in the house?
Did she have Lisa with her when she drove these 60 miles? Probably not. Away from it all. Wow.
@undefined-x8h No Lisa would have been looked after by a Maid or one of the other wives.
Not justifying this but there is no way Priscilla would have taken her on a 120 mile round trip
Am I the only one who had the impression when reading this book that the ghost writer would have been Priscilla ?
This was a great interview, Steve. Thanks for sharing this with us 👍 Priscilla appears to be quite the manipulator, she put the "moves" on Mike Stone just like she did to Elvis (and everyone else in between!). She certainly knew how to manipulate men for her monetary gain/fame.
ELVIS FOREVER 👑❤️👑
Yes, and wasn't MS's wife pregnant? No qualms about breaking up a family from either of them.

Mike thats how priscilla rolls.
just the beginning is enough for me. the only thing I notice is that Lisa Marie's memoirs are going to come out and Priscilla Beaulieu and this gentleman are releasing their firewall book! minds are not at peace
Exactly....I have the suspicion that "someone" and her team are using every possible card to appear in a good way....we had Sally Hoedel's last video...Priscilla who wants to write her own book about Lisa and now Mike Stone, then suddenly wants to publish his own book talking about Priscilla and Lisa. 🤔 No thanks 👎🏻
Yep it's up on Amazon
@@elvis78aleHaven't listened to this Interview, but was interested in the comments honestly😊.I do remember in his 1st interview Mike Stone explicitly stated bis book was was mainly about him, not so much about P. I admired him for that then.
He must have changed his 'tactics'?🙋🏻
@@southerngirl9941 "Elvis" is the name that attracts people. Mike Stone can make money only talking about his relationship with Priscilla and Priscilla knows very well she can make money only talking about her marriage to Elvis. She had lots of men after Elvis, a "big collection" in my opinion. She never talks about them. Nobody cares about her, except for Elvis. And this is the reason she wants to be buried at Graceland, with the hope one day she can have her own "candlelight" to be remembered as a Presley 🤦🏻♀️
@@AS-zq5csor pure greed 🫤
She used Mike Stone
Mike didn’t keep Pissy when he was living with her Elvis did. Says a awful lot to me! So he was living on Elvis money…..
They both enjoyed the money Elvis gave her after the divorce, and she always asked him for more ..
No...Mike had his own income
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel Yes, but not much. I wonder who paid for their "love shack" that they had for 1 1/2 years prior to their relationship becoming public. I presume Elvis.
@@vicki6070 We know who was paying for that love shack. ...
But it now seems to be a common thing among many "Elvis fans" to worry more about the reputation of the people that have done Elvis wrong, than they are against all the slandering towards Elvis himself.
Another Elvis channel that hated the Elvis 2022 movie were promoting hard the new book on Parker, which shines a very positive light on the Colonel. Now this channel all in favor of the Mike Stone book, (so that hopefully we can all see that M.S. did nothing wrong). Other channels make whole videos in defense of Priscilla, and are really hurt by what is said about her, but are not concerned one bit about Elvis now being accused of domestic violence, being a sick abuser, and pedophilia, among other things, as a direct result of the latest movie.
I don't know, I'm not one of the original fans, but it seems his most loyal fans were the older ones, and there's less and less of them, and now not many stick up for Elvis anymore. Sad.
@@TheEccho Sad, but true. Great comment.
So mark stone left his wife and priscilla left elvis
They deserved each other 👿
It’s just sad that everybody is coming out with the book PP Mike stone after Lisa‘s passing that said profiting off of her book and her untimely death.
It’s emotional to us having Lisa is not treated with the best respect.
Nice interviewer to Mike stone you remain neutral and respect for Steve so thank you my friend
That's a good way to put it ." The Universe put them together....😂
This is bull don't like mike or cella
No respect for either of them.
Let's have some common sense. She knew what she was getting into when she married Elvis. They had an affair & now trying to smooth it over. Don't like this guy or her.
It’s just sad that everybody is coming out with the book PP Mike stone after Lisa‘s passing that sad profiting off of her book and her untimely death.
It’s emotional to us having that Lisa is not treated with the best respect even now
I see Stone as a double talker. One minute he describes Priscilla as Elvis’ sweet, young victim., who was not permitted to live her own life, and kept in a “dungeon”. The next he is saying that he does not believe there are victims. He also suggests that Priscilla had a plan for herself and that at the end of their relationship he realized (paraphrased) that he was part of her plan but not part of her future. Does he think she became cunning only after she left him but not before leaving Elvis. He speaks of Lisa Marie as though he traded his own daughter for her, that it was Lisa he was able to love and protect. In the same breath, he insists that he would not keep Lisa from Elvis but it’s obvious that he bought Priscilla’s narrative that Elvis is a bad man. Who, other than Elvis was he protecting Lisa from and did he really not know Priscilla’s age when she married Elvis. She was almost 22, not 17-18 as he said. I think that, for Mike Stone, the last straw occurred when Priscilla fought in court to be buried next to Elvis, claiming him as the love of her life. For all these years he had believed the horror stories that she had told him about Elvis and now, she can’t even pronounce or spell Stone’s name. After fifty years, he is ready to talk…I mean double talk. Do you believe in victims now Mike?
I can't imagine anyone being interested in this new book at all. What purpose does it actually serve, except for its own financial position?
In his last three interviews, he has inadvertently exposed Priscilla's real reason for leaving Elvis. She wanted to go into show business, the ambition that she hid from him when she married him. I would not buy the book unless I bought it second hand but I think it will expose Priscilla so I think it is worth reading.
I don’t have a problem reading his book. I’m looking forward to Lisa Marie’s book and I’d be curious to compare. I love Elvis but he had plenty of affairs after they were married & so did she. She made the decision to move on and get a divorce & I believe Elvis eventually moved on himself and lived his life. We all wonder about Priscilla’s relationship with Lisa Marie and why she did what she did shortly after Lisa’s death.
He’s right when saying we all do things in life we may regret later but we do need to take responsibility for our actions and move on. I wonder why she never mentioned him again or acted like she didn’t pronounce or spell his name right. She never looks back or takes responsibility for her actions. Perhaps that’s why she hasn’t seemed so happy with her choices. I’ve also watched her interviews and the information keeps changing. Thanks Steve. Great interview. 😊❤❤
Yes she does have a way with rewriting history as do all of the girlfriends with the exception of Ginger and most of the Memphis Mafia. I think the only two that have kept the same stories over the years are Charlie Hodge and Larry Geller.
Thanks Jeri
@@colleenluiz3678
ESATTO!
Why would she mention him again and remind the world of how she betrayed Elvis? She wishes everyone would forget it.
She said in her first book that if Elvis had affairs she didn't know it. So no matter what she says now, that is not why she left him.
Hi I’m gonna review this interview - Hope you don’t mind - great channel
Please do
Also please provide link so your listeners can hear it for themselves
Maybe you people who say Elvis and Priscilla were soulmates and she was the love of his life will shut up now
Definitely not soulmates, what a laugh. She was only a con artist money grubber.
I think he loved her but she was just in it for fame and money.
@@joannemcclure3546 You know when she dyed her hair that strawberry blonde. Like you know who. I wonder how did Elvis react to that. What did he say?
Something quite special? I guess he doesn't know that it's documented in the divorce papers that Priscilla asked to go back to Elvis and he said 'no' - this was while she was with Stone. She also told Olivier Bis that she would never be with anyone who had less money than her - again, referring to being with Stone. I have no interest in his book - nor Priscilla's hatchet job due for release next year. Wish these people would just give it rest!
If Elvis fans don't read the books we cannot defend Elvis against them. The trick is to buy them second hand or from the library so the author doesn't get your money.
The question I would ask Lisa. Was your Mom a good Mother to you?
I have heard that is a question answered in Lisa Marie memoir coming out in Oct if it has not been edited out
Uh, I think we know the answer to that question. Beginning withPriscilla’s riding a horse during her 9th month of pregnancy.
She once said in an interview, "you can't imaging how sweet she can be". But that was way before she found out that Priscilla was dipping way into her money without her knowing it.
Now this guy wrote a book.. Geeze anyone n everyone loves making money off Elvis....This is the guy that was with Priscilla when he was married? VERY INTERESTING...
Yes he was married with a small child and his wife was pregnant. He later said on one of his interviews, "never feel guilty for anything you've done" and on this one, "there is no such thing as victimhood". Shows you that the guy has no ethics at all.
@@saphireblue3563 Yes I know,I heard him saying " The Universe put them together."
@@saphireblue3563Neither he nor Prissy had any morals or values.
@@saphireblue3563... Fran Stone didn't hold grudges it seems. This is the end of her interview from 1973... " I am not bitter. I have nothing against the girl [Priscilla] I mean, I liked her I still do. I just think it’s time that everybody let everyone else live their own lives.”
@@christinerathbone8886 Too bad. I think she should write a book and give Priscilla what she deserves.
poor guy still doesnt realise why him, and what she was really like, she chose him because she knew it would hurt Elvis the most, a Hawaiian karate champion, that's why she sort him out, to destroy Elvis, thankfully he does realise how manipulative she is. She was almost 18 when she moved to Memphis, he still seemed to think she had lived with Elvis since she was 14 and she didn't. Of course Elvis knew, Elvis had a PI following her all the time. he is still so naive, he says cilla wanted a divorce, but cilla phoned Elvis asking to come back, and he said NO and cilla was in Hawaii at the time with Mike. Steve Francis, next time you talk to Mike please let him know that Elvis wanted to give him a TCB necklace to show there was no hard feelings and he knew how manipulative cilla was, according to Dr Nicks book, but the guy dissuaded Elvis from doing so, I wish they hadn't, thanks
👍
Judy Eagle... what an insightful post. I never heard this before, but that would have been soooo Elvis to want to give Mike a TCB chain. I'm bearing my own soul a little here, and can only thus speak personally, but in terms of intimacy, I have always found it practically impossible to get back with a woman, knowing she has been intimate with another man. After the heat, the pain, the confusion has died down.... that thing just simply isn't there anymore. I can't speak for any woman in a similar situation, because I am just a straight guy. But I believe the pain Elvis was in in 72/73 because of the split, when it had receded, left Elvis with no real desire to win Cilla back. This is not mentioned in any of the books, other than a reference from Larry Geller ( If I Can Dream) and which came from Elvis late in the day!!! I hold no claims on this position and bare no animosity whatsoever towards Priscilla Presley. It's just my strong conviction that Elvis would have viewed her with very different eyes ( still lovingly I believe) after knowing what he knew, and when his own ego and inflammatory reactions had calmed down after a couple of years. Who knows, Mike and Elvis could have become firm friends in the 80s, had Elvis lived. They did share an extremely strong passion for the martial arts after all. This interview has been beautifully conducted by Steve ( as always) and Mike's character comes across as very warm, honest and endearing x
Thanks as always for your kindness and Support Juan

@@davidjuanlozano503 I think that is what she was doing.Trying to get to Mike before Elvis became friends with him. If Elvis had put Priscilla on a pedestal, one she didn't want to be on. Her relationship with Mike changed all of that.

And P knew he was married with a pregnant wife.
👍🏻 Excellent interview with Mike who seems straightforward and honest. Maybe you can have him back on in the future. Thanks Steve 👍🏻
Thanks for the support
"There is no such thing as victimhood". That philosophy gives him permission to do anything he wants to anyone.
I dont care about Mike Stone nothing.
A great interview Steve, very interesting , 👌
Becky Yancey refused to follow Priscilla when she proposed her to meet attractive karate champions, she remained married. Joanie Esposito, Nora Fike divorced.
A book explaining how much unhappy Priscilla was with Elvis and how much happier she was with her lover seems more convenient for Elvis'haters.
I chuckled a bit at his statement that the four years Priscilla and Lisa were with him, was the best time of their life.
@@TheEccho I would have liked to ask Lisa if she remembered that time as the best of her Life. It sounds quite presumptuous 😐

Tell people the truth about what you want in life. If Priscilla didn't tell Elvis the truth, how would he know. The lie of omission.
If she told him what she wanted in life( a show business career) he would never have married her and she knew that. That is why she lied to him. Waited just long enough to get the best settlement, left him, got her money and got herself a movie agent.
@@saphireblue3563 Yeah, after so many years of marriage and she's upward towards 30. She had to get things moving along. wow. Divorcing Elvis, just doesn't sound right to me even after all these years.There will never be a divorce, ever.(that's me screaming)
Very good interwiev.I dont know how much he can say because Prissy have a best advocat.
Excellent interview .
Priscila at eighteen vould not leave and escape graceland
Lol
Elvis was forced into marrying priscilla prr taped red west phone call.
Thanks steve! This interview was alittle cring worthy for me, but it is interesting that wrote this after Lisa Marie passed. Im glad hes got the proper concern for elvis's legacy,but i think he waited alittle to late by releasing this now. Have a good day!
I want to know about Sandy Ferra Martindale. I think she was someone special to Elvis. She says he was with her the day before he got married. The one he met after Priscilla.
He might have seen her or talked to her the day before he got married, but not in a romantic way. She was already happily married to Wink Martindale.
@@saphireblue3563 Was she married in 1967. She said she was with Elvis then.
@@undefined-x8h Yes she was married then, unless there was a divorce and I don't think there was. It was not a romantic thing.
@cherylspencer8024 Well she said on an old video that she had dumped Elvis to marry Wink. I thought it was in Elvis' early days, not that late. As for Ann Margret, by that time she was happily married to Roger Smith so I don' t believe that much in that story.
@cherylspencer8024 That was my word, not Priscilla's. What she said was that she broke off the relationship because he went to the press.
Not interested . It sounds weird to me this book comes out exactly now. I don't have a lot of trust to read the real truth, sorry. 🤷🏻♀️
At least hear Mike out on the interview?
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel I already heard his stories. I have nothing against Mike but I'm not interested in him and Priscilla. They made their choices but sincerely I don't care, because I don't trust any of them. Priscilla in the past was always very careful to ensure that her old lovers never talked about her and their relationship with her (especially after Mike Edwards' book). It seems very strange to me that this book is coming out right now, almost 50 years after their break-up , perhaps selling us the story of poor Priscilla who was always left alone, somehow justifying the beginning of their affair or changing something we have known through others with more lies. Am I prevented? Yes, it could be. This book could have two purposes... to make money, after the release of the two movies and the media attention around the Presley family or to help revive Priscilla's image which is currently no longer seen so well by many. In both cases I find it useless. Obviously it's my humble opinion ..
@@elvis78alewell said.
@@elvis78aleAnche il mio parere!! It stinks to me!!
Mike said PP contradict herself we know this
Interesting interview. Sounds like Priscilla manipulated him as well. He sees it now and doesn't like that P ignores their relationship, pretends it even happened, he wasnt a big deal in her life, cant really remember his correct name. Her narrative isn't accurate. I wonder if he now realizes her narrative if Elvis that she told him way back wasnt accurate either. Makes you think his version of Elvis and P relationship, dungeon, etc might not be real. She did to Mike what she did to Elvis. All and all, the affair happened, im glad he finally speaking out
Mike, just like, like Steve Peck her married dance instructor who she had a affair with only 6 weeks after having Lisa, were all taken in by her sad and lonely Life. CHILD PLEASE. Elvis cousin Billy and his wife Jo, said there was at least 10 people around all the time at Graceland, lonely? Jo said she and Priscilla and Patsy Lacker went to movies and shopping and even threw toilet paper all over the houses down from Graceland on Halloween. Priscilla moved into Graceland a few weeks before her 18 birthday. In her book she makes people believe she was 14 when she went there. Elvis met her when she was 14, but two months later shipped back to the US. He didn't even contact her for over a year, she wrote everyday begging to go to Graceland. Her parents were her groomers and wanted her to marry rich. I am one year older than her, and it was quit common in the 50's to marry your daughter off to an older man who was established and often wealthy. Keep in mind her mother was a fan and heard Elvis was coming to Germany and planned out a way to marry her daughter to the riches man in the world at that time. Priscilla got around she was the bell of her high school dating every night. In fact her parents started to panic when she was almost 18 that she might not get to marry Elvis. THEY sent her to Graceland at almost 18 and she moved in with Elvis father and bride Dee. She saw Elvis lifestyle. she saw all the bodyguards, she also saw that Elvis would probably not be faithful. So she knew he was seeing other women, but married him when she turned 21. She wanted to be an idol like Elvis, so she crafted stories to become a victim and a martyr. Read "Child Bride"
I agree with everything you said. Maybe now Mike Stone and the others will speak up too
Only one book worth getting this year and thats lisas . Have no time for the rest of them they all just out to make elvis look bad. TCB
That’s right. So many people that Elvis took care of in life has made a lot of money talking bad about him after his death. It’s disgusting 🤢
We hope it will be LMP words.
Nothing is guaranteed these days
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel So true, it's sad that we live in a world where we now have to doubt the truthfulness and veracity of everything, but that's how it is. And even if it's not intentional, Riley and Lisa are two separate person, Riley could have easily misinterpreted something Lisa was trying to say in her memoir, or come to a different conclusion about an event, and Riley rewriting it differently than what Lisa had intended to.
Fact is, it will never be completely Lisa's words.
@@TheEcchoI've read Riley just finished the book that was ready for almost 70/80 %. Let's hope she has not changed a lot of her mother's intentions and real words, just to clean up stories to protect someone from the truth (not necessarily Priscilla and her son, but also Lisa's ex, Scientology or her sisters). But I agree with you; we can't be completely certain that it is the book Lisa would have wanted it to be. 🤷🏻♀️
@elvispresleythelegendalwaystcb yes, only her book
And I would be thrilled to read a book by the Smith family, too.
Anyone could of got out of a marriage precilla got out of it she wanted fame and fortune that's what she got precilla wanted that from the beginning
@@AS-zq5cswe had an example last year 😂 Elvis had a movie with Baz....she immediately had to have hers, telling her "truths". The difference is evident..Baz movie has been a success, hers a total flop. She always tries to reach his same level 😂
I would be very interested to know if Priscilla ever mentioned during her relationship with MS that she was looking for her own religion. In an interview in Women Magazine in 1973, she mentioned that she wanted to give Lisa a religious background and that she already had the religion of science on her radar. I wonder what happened and I would be interested to know if MS can confirm that she was already looking for a religion at that time. Because Priscilla claims to this day that it was the great grief over the death of Elvis that brought her to Scientology. Another piece of bullshit that should be refuted immediately.
I've never heard this excuse...thanks...it sounds very funny 😂😂😂 sometimes I think she chose Scientology because maybe she thought it could open her some "doors" for her career. 🤔
She put Lisa in the cult of Scientology when barely 12. Lisa was lonely and sad while being in their camp for months. Her mother controlled her money and life through the cult. Lisa tried to escape and went to London for two years to get it off her back. Priscilla even hired Scientology Nannys to raise Lisa's children in the cult. Lisa never got over it and fought to get out up into 2016. It's like leaving the mob. Her Son Ben who she tragically lost by suicide told his girlfriend that Scientology had wrecked his brain. It is still a dangerous cult, when Lisa died and left Graceland to her daughters, Priscilla got mad and sued her own granddaughter to get Graceland back. She called in Scientologist John Travolta to mediate for her at the settlement. He got her a million upfront to drop the lawsuit, 400 grand paid court hosts and fees, 100 grand a year to advise Riley on Graceland, 1/9 of the Elvis estate for her son by boyfriend Marco, and a plot next to Elvis, "the love of her Life". Barf.
@@AS-zq5cs Exactly....I think she was introduced into Scientology by other celebrities, as for example John Travolta. It was common back then to give a chance to that new cult but I don't think her first motivation was to find a way to grieve Elvis's death 😂. The last thing that Elvis would have wanted is to have his daughter sent to Scientology.
@@AS-zq5cs no ..they broke up in 1975. I don't know who was next to her in 1977 (in 1976 she broke up with Robert Kardashian too). But in 1978 she started her relationship with Mike Edwards. So it was a few months after Elvis's death. Yes, poor Lisa...
@@AS-zq5cs Terry O'Neill was before Robert K. and lasted only a few months. Kirk Kerkorian followed Robert K. in the Spring '77, and was short-lived; Elie Ezerzer, who she met around 6/77 was next in line, which lasted about a year. She then threw a party in 6/78 and that's when she met Mike E.
I agree word for word!!!
(now he wants to be wise, the book? if he read it!)
If who read it?
I enjoyed the interview. Thanks, Steve.
Glad you enjoyed it
Really good interview Steve❤. I wondered who you were going to interview that might be a bit controversial, well Mike Stone fits the bill😊😂. I hear constantly how trapped Priscilla was by Elvis at Graceland during their relationship, and I really hope that Priscilla is able to finally be her own person. Priscilla can take steps to achieve this by freeing herself financially from Elvis' money, and retract her request to be buried as close as possible to her ex-husband in the meditation garden at Graceland. I am not sure yet, l might purchase Mike Stone book.
Thanks Helen
Great interview!
Thank You
Great interview, Steve I really believe that Mike and Cilla did fall for eachother but i feel that Mike could have fallen more for her than she did him, one thing that got me interested was when mike said Priscilla wanted a divorce from Elvis well she got her wish, but it makes me angry now she has the Presley name still ,and she swans around the world claiming to be his widow, she is not , She is his EX-WIFE, also giving half of Elvis's money to her druggie son,what for!!!!He is not a PRESLEY! Elvis left everything to LMP not her, then LM naturally left inheritance including GL to HER KIDS, CILLA IS A GREEDY WOMAN!!! ELVIS was grieving his mother at the time they met and he was seeing Anita Wood, Cilla made sure that she got the chance to see Elvis again, no E didnot force her to go to Graceland she wanted to go but her stepfather threatened Elvis saying if their is no marriage, that he would ruin Elvis's career, Elvis had no choice , she thought she could change Elvis but she couldn't, yes i believe she manipulated them both !
GOLD DIGGER
She wasn't at Gracelands at the age of 14 she got cosy with CURRY GRANT to get him to meet ELVIS don't forget ELVIS was in the army for 2yearys when she did meet ELVIS she wasn't that innocent
Yes, Mike dumped his pregnant wife and kid to be with the bored Priscilla who had another affair with her dance instructor Steve Peck only weeks after having Lisa. Who does that? Mike said he will never say a negative word about priscilla. OOOKKKK
@@lindajones2884 I know Curry bought Cilla to meet Elvis, but I read once Grant actually had a thing for Cilla, not sure if that's true though, but Cilla pushed her parents to see Elvis again, Elvis was busy in the army and with his career to worry about her, Cilla makes it sound E fell for her ,he didn't not that quick 😉
@@Mary-d5x6g maybe hes worried he will get sued, 🤔 didn't know about the other man, yep she's been around also had an affair with Patrick Duffy her Dallas Co star in the 80s 😏
Great interview! Thanks!❤
I love the way this man speaks , he has so much wisdom and knowledge and so much common sense about life that so many don’t have ! Love this man he is still so attractive!
Well you thought this interview would prove controversial Steve and judging by the comments you were right 🫢😮.
How long after introducing Fran at Priscilla's request did Mike Stone get into trouble with his wife?
This is at the end of an interview Fran Stone gave in 1973...“ I am not bitter. I have nothing against the girl [Priscilla] I mean, I liked her I still do. I just think it’s time that everybody let everyone else live their own lives.”
@@christinerathbone8886 I'm only interested in the way manipulation works, not if the victims over come it or not (if she did it's of course wonderful for her), I'm afraid that Elvis did not.
@@Val45678 Great response.
Priscilla manipulated and felt Graceland was a dungeon, and she couldn't pursue her own acting dreams. Wow.
It's something we've always known...Priscilla was aiming for Mrs Presley status, she waited years to finally enjoy the spotlight that Elvis enjoyed. She waited for her ring (obtained somehow) and when her dreams of having her own career were shattered because Elvis didn't want that in a wife, she began to be worried and complain. The last thing she wanted was to stay at home being a wife and mother. She always wore a mask, even with Elvis, showing herself as someone she wasn't. Elvis, on the other hand, has always been himself from the beginning. I think he soon realized the truth too. Two people who are truly in love do not look for relationships outside of marriage after a few months. When over the years Priscilla realized that she wouldn't get anywhere with her career, she reused the "he was the love of my life" card, to continue being in the spotlight as a disconsolate widow. Pathetic!!
Did I say the truth about her ? I mean the real truth ? No ? So I don't care about the book😂
Very good interview. I feel the same, what happened to these two women, was it money, fame, and excess that did them in? And it certainly was not worth it, yes it is so sad. And how Cilla turned her back on him. I am starting to see why she has so many haters. We can pray for people to get and stay on the right path. Thanks for the interview. My best to Mike.😊❤🎉
Ask him about Bruce Lee next time.
It's in interview #1 I did with Mike
If you get speechify you can listen to written books as an audio book
Sounds like a decent, level headed guy.
He is yes
@@tracie5245 At least give Mike a chance to explain the situation
Tastes on men are different, and there is always the cycle of learning. People are changing with the years. ❤
Mike sounds like a decent guy and like he says he had to accept responsibility for what he and Priscilla did. Having an affair when a marriage doesn't go right only complicates the situation. An affair is not a good way to end a bad marriage. Stone's word for Priscilla is appropriate...manipulate. I think she has been from the very first time she met Elvis even at 14. It makes me feel even sadder for Lisa Marie she was the definition of poor little rich girl. I guess Mike is setting the record straight...can't blame him. Great interview, Steve. Thank you.
@@janetbentsen1829 if he says something bad about Priscilla, it's better for him to have a good attorney and be ready. She could sue him 😐
All these comments from people who "know" what Priscilla was thinking, what Mike was thinking, how Elvis felt, and blah, blah, blah ..... you do know you reserve the right to not purchase his book?
Under a video it's normal to comment and discuss the subject of the video. It's named "comment section" 😂 We know we are free to buy the book or not
@@elvis78ale👍
@@elvis78aleWell said
Here a day late : from Tx USA
So basically she jumped from the frying pan into the fire,
For me him or Priscilla are the same!lie unfaithful and others!
When was he Phil Spector body guard ?
This is part of an interview with Mike Stone from 2021... "Phil Spector was actually in attendance at the International Championships in the1964 event, and saw me compete. He asked his karate instructor, Emil Farkas, for my number and contacted me to ask if I would be willing to work with him as a bodyguard. I worked off and on for nearly 5 years"
@@christinerathbone8886 thank you
Couldn’t she just have like him and nothing to due with manipulation, as a woman I find that odd. The more I hear, I find many of his choice of words disturbing, like everything even at 14 was a calculation , I doubt it.
@@nancywalker2256 sure she and her family were not so naive in what they were doing in Germany. I've never believed the story..."my parents were worried". Her parents were well conscious of everything from the beginning, or she would have never been allowed to attend the house of a superstar, full of adults.
@@elvis78ale why were your parents worried? Did they know her?
@@nancywalker2256 I used "...". Priscilla stated that in many interviews about her parents. It was a quote
@@elvis78ale oh, got you.
In't this a RE-POST?
Nope brand new interview done last week.
Book published a few days ago
Why is it everyone is wrong except Elvis, its because most people loose insight because Elvis is our idol , but we all know Elvis was not perfect , now i must admit in no fan of Pricilla, mike sounds like a nice guy he did no more wrong having an affair with pricilla than Elvis done thousands of time to all his partners , Elvis was never faithful, Elvis is our idol but please he had many faults and was human like us all , in the Elvis world everyone is bad apart from Elvis be it Red or Sunny or dave , be it his father his cousins tom parker all painted badly and Elvis a saint
Sadly true...Elvis had his faults just like everyone else.
He was a special human being,extremely talented and greatly missed.
There will never be another Elvis that's for sure
Nobody has ever thought that Elvis was a saint. Elvis was full of defects and made a lot of mistakes in his life, as anyone else. This is not the point. But, as an Elvis fan, I could care less about Priscilla and her affair with Mike Stone, especially after 50 years. 😂
It's about Lisa Marie too.
Also,it's part of the whole Elvis story...as uncomfortable or uninteresting as you may find it,it happened and it had implications for how the whole story of Elvis life played out
@elvisrevisited, you seem to think you know everything, and yet you do not, even cilla admitted she was the first to cheat on Elvis, not the other way round, Elvis was faithful until after cilla was not, I can't put the magazine cutting here where cilla says it but she does, also Elvis passed a polygraph test to prove he had not cheated. Wow, ''thousands of times'' now there is an overstatement if ever there was, seriously you should do your research. As for Mike Elvis knew it was cilla who manipulated the situation, Elvis actually wanted to give him a TCB necklace to show there were no hard feelings, but the guy, MMs, dissuaded him from doing so, guess you really do not know Elvis as well as you think you do.
@@Elvisultimatefanchannel to me it's bit too late, sorry 🤷🏻♀️ I find it weird every book is coming out now, now that Lisa's book is ready. Every person involved seems to be interested to point out his/her version of the story 🤔 Maybe just a coincidence...
a prescindere dalla bassezza assoluta di pb che si è servita di questa stupido vorrei sapere perchè va ancora in giro a raccontare questa cosa oscena. E' la terza intervista che fa con Steve Francis. E francamente non capisco come mai Steve lo faccia ancora parlare. Siamo proprio caduti in basso.
Okay, Steve, I gave Mike a chance until 18.22 because he is not truthful. If Priscilla was in a Dungeon (his word) at 18, then why did she marry Elvis? She was never held in bondage; she had freedom to leave, but didn’t by choice even after learning that the MM were just as important as she was to Elvis. Also, I want to finish by saying, yes life has cycles and rhythms, yes we all experience cycles differently within our relationships BUT once our heart changes to no longer love the person we claim, or married to, a mature woman would ask for a divorce AND not cheat (with a married man) because now that woman is disrespectful to the lover’s wife as well. Elvis cheated but with another man’s wife. Priscilla is phony and Mike is calculating the book sales.
There is more to Mike than that.
The end of the interview when I asked him ''why now for the book?'' his answer is very interesting
@@AS-zq5csvery well said
