The media personality, famously known as Elvis Presley's ex-wife, is reportedly searching for a new man and has no problem with a massive age gap. A source recently spilled the tea about her desire to date again, claiming she enjoyed the company of attractive men.
Priscilla Presley has dated several famous men since the end of her longtime union with Elvis Presley in 1972. Although she caught the attention of multiple A-listers, no one could convince her to walk down the aisle a second time.
Priscilla Presley Reportedly Wants New Romance At 80

Priscilla's alleged search for a burning love was shared by a source who claimed she refused to sit around feeling sorry for herself amid her legal troubles. The entertainer has been butting heads with her former business partners, who accused her of exploitation, deception, and other crimes.
The source explained that Priscilla was making the most of her life instead of worrying about the legal drama, and a new man appears to be the best way forward.
"Priscilla's always been the type who thrives on male attention, and that hasn't changed," the source claimed, adding that she "totally lights up if a handsome man gives her attention."
The source told RadarOnline that Priscilla has numerous admirers, some decades younger than her. However, the massive age gap did not bother the media personality, with the source alleging: "She's not limiting herself. She wants to get out and have fun, go for dinners, and out to parties."
The Media Personality Wants Her Friends To Play Matchmaker

The source's claims about Priscilla's love life continued, noting she had implored her friends to play matchmaker and find her a new lover. They alleged this plea led to her pals seating "interesting men" next to her at every dinner party.
Additionally, Priscilla always managed to attract the attention of "wealthy bachelors or widowers" whenever she stepped out. Her alleged longing for a burning love came a month after she turned heads for spending quality time with one of her famous exes, Nigel Lythgoe.
The media personality and the "American Idol" producer were spotted enjoying a dinner in Malibu for the latter's 76th birthday. They were photographed sharing a warm hug after the event, with a source noting Priscilla liked his company, "even if it's just dinner, it's always nice to reminisce and laugh together."
Inside Elvis Presley's Relationship With His Ex-Wife

Priscilla's interest in a new romance comes 48 years after her ex-husband Elvis died on August 16, 1977, at 42. The former couple first met in September 1959 while Priscilla was in ninth grade. She was introduced to Elvis by his friend Currie Grant, whom she reportedly met at the Eagles Club.
Despite being 14 at the time, Priscilla caught Elvis's attention, and they shared their first kiss on their third meeting. Elvis introduced himself to her parents on their fourth encounter, with their 10-year age gap making the folks nervous. However, the late singer convinced them he was serious about Priscilla.
The former couple were allowed to continue dating and entered a long-distance relationship when Elvis returned to the U.S. Priscilla moved from Germany to the States to join him in 1963. They tied the knot in Las Vegas on May 1, 1967, per PEOPLE, welcoming their only child, Lisa Marie Presley, a year later.

Priscilla's relationship with Elvis ended tumultuously in 1972 following alleged infidelities on the late singer's part and Priscilla's romance with a karate instructor. Their divorce was finalized a year later, with Elvis allegedly having a hard time accepting their split.
Priscilla confessed in an interview that she never considered remarrying after Elvis; however, she enjoyed dating multiple A-listers. She dated karate instructor Mike Stone during her marriage to Elvis and the late Robert Kardashian Sr. in the 70s.
Despite having a serious relationship, Priscilla and Robert Sr. allegedly ended their union because she refused to marry him while Elvis was alive. She moved on with model Michael Edwards around 1977, and he was there to support her when her ex-husband died.
Priscilla Presley Embroiled In Scathing Exploitation Lawsuit

Priscilla's alleged longing for love comes amid legal issues with her former business partners. The Blast covered the story, reporting that the plaintiffs, Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko, sued her for over $50 million in damages.
The plaintiffs accused Priscilla of exploitation, claiming she influenced her daughter Lisa Marie's death. They alleged she intentionally "ignored Lisa's health complaints before she suffered cardiac arrest and later quickly took her off of life support."
Additionally, they accused her of exploiting her daughter's death and using it as a smokescreen to reclaim control of the assets she had sold. They noted Priscilla erased the contracts she no longer found convenient during this period before coming for them with her 2024 financial elder abuse claims.
Priscilla Presley has vehemently denied these allegations through her attorney, who labeled the lawsuit a malicious attempt to destroy her image. However, can she successfully defend herself against these scathing claims?
