Despite the fact that Elvis died in 1977, Priscilla has maintained her promise for the past four decades. "To be honest with you, I never wanted to marry after him. I never had any desire," she said. "No one could ever match him."

According to People, Priscilla also explained why she and Elvis chose not to have more children after welcoming their daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, in 1968. "Elvis felt he had a very busy schedule and he did have a bit of guilt that he wasn't around that much when Lisa was younger," she told the audience.

"With his scheduling and his touring, he just felt he wasn't around enough to give a lot of attention to having another child." Priscilla also discussed what drew her to Elvis, such as his biting sense of humour.
