According to the star, she and her husband lived in a cocoon. She yearned to be a part of the outside world and that was one of the many reasons why their marriage fell apart according to Loose Women.

Priscilla Presley, 72, opened up about her marriage to Elvis Presley. She appeared on the UK talk show Loose Women to share the many secrets about her fairy-tale life.

Priscilla was only 14 when she first met Elvis who was then 24. At the time, she was a naive schoolgirl, and he was already a Rock and Roll legend.

Priscilla Beaulieu was the daughter of a US Air Force officer serving in Germany. This was where Elvis was stationed for military service in 1959.

That’s when the two met and it was love at first sight. When the singer moved back to the States Priscilla moved back with him.

"He never wanted to see me getting dressed. He wanted to see the result of getting dressed."

But the two only married when she was 21. The marriage swept her away into a private world where they lived inside a bubble according to the actress.

Priscilla found herself needing more of her husband's attention and contact with the "real world." After six years of marriage, the relationship fell apart and the two separated.
