Finley is Elvis Aaron Presley's granddaughter through his daughter, Lisa-Marie Presley, whom he shared with his ex-wife Priscilla Presley. Besides Finley, Lisa-Marie's other twin daughter is Harper Vivienne Ann Lockwood. However, it is Finley who carries her grandfather's legacy by name.

Named in homage to her legendary grandfather, Finley, now 15, recently took to Instagram to display a glimpse of her life. On December 16, she shared a rare photo on her Instagram story, showcasing her blonde hair and striking cat-eye makeup.

The Lockwood twins, raised largely away from the public eye, had a brief moment in the spotlight when they were just three months old. Their mother introduced them to the world at that tender age through a heartfelt photo session.

Despite their family's immense fame, Lisa-Marie opted for a more private upbringing for her daughters, which has shaped their discreet presence in the public domain.

Lisa-Marie once reflected on her daughters, connecting them to Elvis' enduring spirit. "They've all got a little bit of him in them. They all have their own little traits, and I can just sense it, you know?" she said, acknowledging the subtle yet undeniable presence of Elvis in her children.

Following Lisa-Marie's passing, Michael Lockwood, the twins' father, embraced the role of supporting his daughters, ensuring the continuation of the Presley family's legacy.

The conflict began in January 2023, following the death of Lisa Marie, when Priscilla challenged the authenticity of her daughter's will. The contested will had appointed Lisa Marie's eldest daughter and her deceased son, Benjamin Keough, as co-trustees, replacing Priscilla in a 2016 amendment.

Priscilla raised concerns about the signature on the amendment, suggesting it differed from her daughter’s usual style, and noted that the document was not notarized.

In August 2023, Riley discussed the inheritance dispute she had experienced with her grandmother but mentioned that their relationship had improved. She acknowledged past resentments that had since dissipated, expressing optimism about their future interactions. "Things with Grandma will be happy," she optimistically stated. "They've always been happy."

By November 2023, the dispute was settled in court. Judge Lynn Scaduto ruled that Priscilla would receive $1 million from her daughter's life insurance policy and permitted her burial near Elvis. Since June, Riley has been managing Lisa Marie's estate as the sole trustee.

However, a video clip of them at the event circulated online, sparking commentary from viewers. Some speculated that their amiable appearance was just for show.

Critics pointed to their body language as evidence of discomfort and insincerity. One observer remarked on Priscilla's relaxed demeanor, contrasting it with the recent legal tensions over the inheritance, while another expressed disbelief at the reconciliation, given the circumstances.
