Emergency personnel responded to a call to a home in the Calabasas area, Los Angeles County Fire Department captain Sheila Kelliher confirmed to the Los Angeles Times. At the home, a woman was suffering cardiac arrest, Kelliher said, and was transported to a hospital.

Presley’s manager had "no comment at this time" when contacted Thursday by the L.A. Times.

Presley (54) has been living at the home of ex-husband Danny Keough since selling her own Calabasas home after the 2020 suicide death of their 27-year-old son, Benjamin Keough. Presley and her ex – who married in 1988 and divorced in 1994 – have another child together, actor Riley Keough.

According to TMZ, Danny Keough performed CPR on his ex-wife until paramedics arrived, and mom Priscilla Presley showed up at the hospital early Thursday afternoon.

"My beloved daughter Lisa Marie was rushed to the hospital. She is now receiving the best care. Please keep her and our family in your prayers," Priscilla Presley, 77, told People in an afternoon statement.

In addition to her actor daughter, Lisa Marie Presley also has 14-year-old twin daughters, Harper and Finley, whom she shares with ex-husband Michael Lockwood. She was also married briefly to pop icon Michael Jackson and to actor Nicolas Cage.
