Elvis Presley’s Final Moments Revealed in New Memoir

The last words spoken by Elvis Presley on August 16, 1977, were a simple statement, “I'm going to the bathroom to read,” before he tragically passed away while seated in the bathroom with a book in hand.

The full account of this poignant moment is set to be unveiled on September 2nd in Ginger Alden's upcoming memoir titled “Ginger and Elvis,” shedding light on the tumultuous final months of the legendary singer's life.

This memoir marks a significant return for Alden, a former beauty queen, who has chosen to share her intimate experiences with Elvis after many years of silence.

Alden reminisces about the early days of their relationship, recalling how Elvis had once promised her the “wedding of the century.”

She fondly remembers the joyous times they shared together, with Alden admitting that Elvis's mere presence had a regal quality that she found enchanting.

Their romance began shortly after Elvis parted ways with his longtime girlfriend, Linda Thompson, who had previously voiced concerns about his struggles with self-destructive tendencies.

By the time he crossed paths with Alden, Elvis had already been grappling with a serious dependency on prescription drugs, having accumulated a staggering 199 prescriptions within an eight-month period, amounting to over 10,000 doses of sedatives, amphetamines, and narcotics.

Delving deeper into the darker side of Elvis's life, Alden recounts a harrowing incident where he mistook a harmless childhood game for a threatening situation, leading him to grab a machine gun in a misguided attempt to protect his daughter Lisa.

Additionally, Elvis's erratic behavior extended to destructive outbursts such as shooting at inanimate objects like telephones and television sets whenever he felt displeased or irritated.

A particularly disturbing episode detailed in the memoir revolves around the tragic night of Elvis's passing.

In a heart-wrenching revelation, Alden recalls waking up to find the bathroom light still on and, upon entering, discovering Elvis lifeless on the floor in a seemingly prayer-like pose, with his hands cradling his face.

Despite her desperate attempts to revive him, Elvis remained unresponsive, leaving Alden shattered by the abrupt loss.

Though their romantic involvement only blossomed towards the twilight of Elvis's life, it is noteworthy that Alden had harbored admiration for the music icon since childhood, having met him for the first time when she was just five years old.
