Lisa Marie Presley’s ex Michael Lockwood says he is so concerned she will relapse following her son Benjamin Keough’s suicide that he wants primary custody of their twin daughters.
Lockwood, 59, and Presley, 52, have been locked in a bitter custody battle since filing for divorce in 2016, 10 years after they married. In 2017, 11-year-old Harper Vivienne Ann and Finley Aaron Love ended up in state custody, but court papers filed at the time didn’t explain why. Presley did, however, accuse Lockwood of having child pornography on his computer, an allegation he and his attorney vehemently denied.
Presley requested primary custody in fall 2018 but now Lockwood wants her stripped of it, according to documents obtained by The Blast, because of the dangers of her having a gun in her home and her previous battle with addiction.
“Lisa Marie Presley’s son shot and killed himself in her home (Although she was not there at the time.) With all due sympathy and respect, this creates a new and unaddressed twofold problem: the safety of the children and the greater likelihood of LMP to relapse into drug and alcohol dependency,” the new documents read.
Lockwood claimed there is a “significantly higher risk to the safety of the children” given the firearm’s presence in the home and suggested exposing their daughters to the idea of suicide might make them “think about suicide or attempt it, in light of their half brother’s suicide.”
He’s requesting 100 percent physical custody, as well as random drug tests for his ex-wife.
They’re set to face off in court on Aug. 3 unless they come to an agreement prior to their court date.
