"That's so nice," said one social media user. One person only wrote, "Great," alongside heart emojis. While someone penned, "Praying you enjoying your time with grandchildren. God Bless."

The Family Feud That Ended in Court

The backlash of Priscilla going out with her grandchildren comes after she challenged her late daughter's will only two weeks after her death. Lisa passed away in January 2023 at age 54, leaving behind three kids.

In her will, the singer had given her eldest child, Riley, the control of her wealthy Promenade Trust. However, Priscilla, 78, contested the will and filed in court.

Riley, 34, was reportedly infuriated by her grandmother's actions but did not file an objection to her challenge. It later turned out she and the New York native had mended fences.

The two women reached a settlement over the multi-million-dollar estate, which was not made public. They also came to an agreement on a second trust involving Lisa's insurance policies, believed to be worth $35 million.

They needed clarity on how to do it, and eventually, they all found it. In an August 2023 interview, the red-haired was asked whether things were good between her and Priscilla.

"Things with Grandma will be happy. They've never not been happy," she said, adding that all her grandmother wanted to do was to preserve the legacy of "the love of her life," as she was a part of it, and it was important to her.
