Riley Keough Allegedly Donated Egg for Travolta
Riley Keough, the granddaughter of Elvis Presley, is being accused in a lawsuit of donating an egg to John Travolta and Kelly Preston.
This egg was used to have their son Ben in 2010, after their other son Jett had passed away.
The lawsuit says that Michael Lockwood, who was married to Lisa Marie Presley, told about this arrangement.
It also mentions that Riley Keough got an old car and some money for this.
The lawsuit was filed by two people who used to work with Priscilla Presley, Elvis’s wife.
Riley Keough, 36, is accused of donating an egg to John Travolta and Kelly Preston for their son Ben, born in 2010.
The claim comes from an amended lawsuit filed by Priscilla Presley’s former business partners against her son.
Michael Lockwood, Lisa Marie Presley’s ex-husband, allegedly revealed the egg donation arrangement.
Lisa Marie’s eggs were deemed unusable due to her opioid addiction, and Scientology required Priscilla’s approval.
Riley Keough reportedly received an old Jaguar and $10,000–$20,000 for the egg donation.
