Elvis Presley's daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, recently passed away due to cardiac arrest. Her mother, Priscilla Presley, announced Lisa's death on Thursday, January 12, and thanked all who sent consolations and kind words. She mentioned that she admired her daughter tremendously and asked for privacy.

Followers showed their grief by sharing commemorative posts on social media and wishing the Presley family well. Among those making their sadness known was Lisa's lesser-known half-brother, Navarone Garibaldi. Navarone opened up about his relationship with his late sister and expressed his sorrow at her death.

Who Is Lisa Marie Presley's Less Famous Brother?

After Priscilla and her first husband, Elvis, separated, she went on to date a few other men. The one that managed to stick around for a while, though, was the screenwriter Marco Garibaldi. The pair were together for an impressive 22 years, and they had a son together — Lisa's half-brother, Navarone.

Priscilla also mentioned that she has always taught her kids to rely on themselves and be independent.

Unfortunately, Priscilla and Marco went their separate ways in 2006, but Lisa had a little brother to keep her company. The little boy was born on March 1, 1987. Like his sister, Navarone is also a highly talented musician, and he has spent a significant portion of his life making music as a vocalist and guitarist in the band Them Guns.

Navarone's band, of which he is one of the founding members, has found success over the years with their grunge-inspired rock music. A few of their songs contributed to the soundtrack of the film "Shut Up And Drive." Although Navarone takes after his big sister, it's unclear whether they were close during her last days.

The musician is also married to Elisa Achilli. Elisa and Navarone reportedly had their wedding ceremony in February 2022 in Switzerland at a luxurious hotel. The vocalist commented on the bond he shares with his wife, saying he has never been closer to anyone and couldn't imagine life without her.

"We Have Never Been, 'Elvis This, Elvis That.'" Priscilla Presley Talked about Her Children

Despite his musical talents, Navarone prefers to stay relatively away from the public eye. Priscilla, his mother, always lauded him for his drive to make his career his own and said he has always wanted to be his "own person." Although he comes from a famous family, he is dedicated to earning his success. His mother said:

"He doesn't want to step into the spotlight, and he's always been that way. He's not riding on Elvis and he's not riding on Lisa."

Priscilla also mentioned that she has always taught her kids to rely on themselves and be independent. Although it would be easy to use Elvis' fame to their advantage, she has always encouraged them to make something of themselves using their own talents and their own initiative. She commented:

"We have never been, 'Elvis this, Elvis that,' to our children because otherwise you're building up something that is almost unreachable for them."

Priscilla also said that her family and her children mean the world to her. She mentioned that she loves spending time with her family, and it is always a large gathering when all their relatives come together. Priscilla said she also believes in giving children support and guidance, so sticking together as a family is imperative in her mind.
