Elvis Presley's granddaughter Riley Keough remembered her mother Lisa Marie Presley and her brother Benjamin on the anniversary of his death - the same day as one of the biggest moments of her career.
Benjamin Keough: Sister Riley shares fond memories in tribute
Riley Keough has had an overwhelmingly intense first half of 2023 filled with personal and professional triumphs and tragedies.
On the same day this week as she celebrated an Emmy nomination for her role in Daisy Jones & The Six, the granddaughter of Elvis Presley also remembered the anniversary of her brother's death.
In fact, the Amazon Prime series was announced on July 25, 2019, just two weeks after Benjamin Keough was found dead at his California home.
Riley was still dealing with the sudden shock death of her mother Lisa Marie Presley on January 12 this year, just weeks before her new show finally hit screens.
On July 12 she then had to deal with the joy of a major award nomination and the memory of the day she lost her only brother.

In fact, Riley did not realise at first that she had been nominated because she was quietly spending time at home with her family.
She told Vanity Fair: "I was in my house and my phone was on silent ‘cause I was with my family, and then I returned to my cell phone and had like 700 missed texts and calls, so I assumed I got nominated."
The 34-year-old posted a very simple tribute on her Instagram stories, simple saying"Missing you both" on a beautiful and adorably funny black and white photo of her mother and brother, with Ben making an cute face.
Lisa Marie and Benjamin are both buried alongside Elvis Presley at Graceland.
Riley previously described the long period of grieving her brother as "a year of feeling like I was thrown into the ocean and couldn't swim."
