PRISCILLA Presley's son is getting honest about his bad relationship with his half-sister Lisa Marie and admitted he doesn't miss her after her death at just 54 earlier this year.
Elvis's only daughter passed away in January following complications from bariatric surgery she had several years ago.
Her sibling Navarone Garibaldi, 36, penned an emotional tribute to Lisa Marie at the time, saying although they had their differences he was "lost for words," adding: "Love you sis."
But fast-forward months later, and he's been getting honest about his relationship with the late singer in social media videos and a YouTube interview which has angered many of her fans.
This week, he took to Instagram Live to discuss how he didn't get along with Lisa Marie, telling her fans: "Well, you're entitled to your opinion. I'm sure she was good to some. I have made peace.
"I'm not gonna to lie and say I miss her, but I'll say it’s strange."

When slammed for 'trash-talking' his sister in the comments, he replied: "I didn't talk trash, all I did was speak the truth. But sometimes I get egged on when people ask me questions and I just blurt out the first thing that comes to my mind. It's not like I plan on it, I just can't help myself."
In a recent interview with host Aaron Smith-Levin about growing up in Scientology he also got deeper into his thoughts on his sister and blamed the breakdown of their relationship on her drinking.
He also said she hated him smoking weed from a young age as she was "anti-drugs" for many years until she battled with addiction later in life, which she was open about.
"The problem with my sister and I is that she would drink, and she had five security people with her everywhere she went," Navarone said.

'DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR'
"So I would just try and go and do my own thing. I'm not a huge drinker .. I prefer smoking pot.
"We would go to New York or whatever, [and] I would leave the vicinity and go to Central Park. I would go somewhere in the middle of nowhere and just smoke a quick joint and go back to the hotel.
"By the time I get back to the hotel the phone is ringing, ‘Were you just smoking pot in Central Park?’ How the f*** did you know that? ‘Well, I had my security guard follow you. I'm calling mom right now.’
"Then I'd get a call from mom, ‘Were you just smoking pot in Central Park?'
"Then she [Lisa Marie] would drink and she'd kind of look around the room and say, ‘Errrr, you’ .. then she'd decide to go off and tell you everything that's wrong with you and your life.
"It was pretty destructful [destructive]. I never got angry like that, I never said anything I didn't mean when I smoked pot, but she would say really awful things to me that kind of kept us from being close when she would drink."
Elsewhere in the interview, the host said he didn't have the privilege of knowing Lisa Marie, to which her brother laughed: "That's not a privilege… sorry, sorry."
He admitted he didn't go to the family and friends part of the star's funeral when she was buried at Graceland, saying even if his mom had invited him he wouldn't she "knew I wouldn't have gone."
Navarone went on to say he was also not close with Lisa's son Benjamin Keough, who fatally shot himself at his family home in July 2020 aged just 27.
RILEY PRAISE
Lisa left behind three other children; Riley Keough, 34, with ex Danny, along with 15-year-old twins Harper and Finley with former husband Michael Lockwood.
"I don’t know where Riley came from because she's an angel that came from somewhere that had none of the narcissism, none of the antagonism [in the family]," he said.
"She's literally like the sweetest, kindest, most amazing human in the world. I love Riley out of my whole family.
"She's pretty much the only one on my mom's side I actually care about. And the twins too! But they still gotta grow."
The family has settled disagreements over Lisa Marie's estate, and Riley, 34, became the sole trustee, with Navarone granted a ninth of his half-sister's estate.
Despite their rocky relationship over the years, Priscilla, 78, was left devastated by Lisa Marie's death and opened up about her loss to The Sun's Piers Morgan on TalkTV.
She said she was suffering from severe abdominal pain after going to the Chateau Marmont for a drink together after celebrating the Elvis movie at the Golden Globes.
"We went and sat down, and she said, 'Mom, I have to go, my stomach really hurts.' I go, 'Of course, are you OK?' She goes, 'Yes, yes, I just really have to go'. And I go, 'OK, we will get the cars now,' " she recounted.

"Then I hugged her, and she went her way, and I went mine, and that hug was the last hug I gave her."
Priscilla added: "It was unbearable. I lost my mother, I lost my grandson, and I lost my daughter. It's still shocking that we don't have her."
