Linda Thompson Shares Her Life with Elvis: Their First Meeting and Living Together 

She is so eleqouent

A smart woman for a smart and cute wonderful man. Elvis was really special in everything , for sure, he had his problems as all of us but he was a good, downheart, smart ,talented,sweet man

I agree she is a true lady & very classy 😊

​@@coogar39 Agree 💯 percent also. She's very pretty too. Beautiful soft spoken talk's with class Linda surley RESPECTS, LOVE'S AND CARE'S FOR ELVIS. Her love for Elvis and all the above I've said comes from her TRUE HEART LINDA has a special shine on her that comes and can be seen because she is a beautiful loving caring respectful human being. With a beautiful heart Linda was raised RIGHT. WITH GOOD MORALS. And Sam her brother is same way. Good job raising Linda and Sam Mr. And Mrs. Thompson. I've never heard Linda or Sam talk bad of Elvis. And they weren't after Elvis Millions being gold diggers money hungry for $$$$$ to take it all from Elvis and Lisa Marie and grandchildren n great granddaughter. Discussting sicking nasty awful person that Cilla.

- - - Ok, nice lady but ' poly pure heart, baptist?' yet she 'lived with Elvis' intimately.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 It’s called fame and fortune.

@@JillLindsey0723 lol! He had fame and fortune, but as a man( as far as what was portrayed )I was not impressed by him. I did like his voice though.

So True! Especially with Pricilla and Linda! I always thought he should have married Linda ! Lisa too loved her!

Except for ginger alden & her mother. Gingers mother sued Elvis’ estate after his death but didn’t get very far. She wanted Elvis’ estate to pay the taxes off on the house he bought Gingers mother. Also there was a diamond missing after his death & Elvis’ entourage thought ginger stole it.

@@gracemaerz8872 ~ IKR? I'm glad somebody said it. All these women in Elvis' life claimed they loved the "man" himself, not the star. Well, as a "man", he was divorced, overweight, bloated, drug addicted, shtupped every female he could and recklessly shot off guns indoors. By some accounts it sounds like he bordered on pedophilia. If you're a young woman with healthy self-esteem, would you date a "man" like that? Heck no! OF COURSE they were caught up in the trappings of his wealth and fame. Sheesh!

Linda looks like the WWE wrestler Charlotte Flair.

Milf

She did but Elvis didn’t know how to be a husband to a wife who expected anything in return! That’s not a criticism of Elvis. He just didn’t know how to do that.

Você viu? Júlia, Fale me em poucas palavras, da impressão que teve do show! E de Linda Thompson!

Can't believe as hot and juicy looking Linda is, she'd marry a freak like Jenner, but not give me the time of day,

@Flora Braswell Amen and I mean it

I also seen Linda at a Elvis concert in 1974. So beautiful !! The best concert I have ever been to. Elvis was wonderful !!

@@bennietoups1719 Saw

And E was one lucky man as well to have a hot, juicy woman like Linda.

One of the ladies I know said she met Linda in Memphis at one of the Elvis gatherings. She said Linda hugged her and said she smelled so good.

This is a model woman in my eyes! For her to have her own journey and struggles and to still speak so kind and lovingly shows what a beautiful soul she is!

@@nathueil1 I agree... in fact, when I met her I was just 17, and she was 22. She definitely became a role model for me....

@@kathleen0954 That's awesome you got to spend some time with her and Elvis! Hope you are doing well!

@@nathueil1 Thank you Nathueil ! Yes, it was an amazing time. After all these years, still some of the sweetest, most lovely memories I hold. I am well, and please God, you are too... and thanks again for your comments....

More beautiful then Priscilla? Hard to believe.

A wonderful book. I’ve read lots of candid memoirs of Elvis, and there was lots of warmth & respect towards her, from his inner circle as well as his family.

To flip the day upside down everyday is enough to drive anyone crazy. I know a man like that. He stays up all night sleeps all day.its awful. He used to be a truck driver so he drove mostly at night. He won’t even try to function in a real world.

She is a beauty and a real lady. Her parents did a great job on her and her sibling. They are a class act.

I have come to the conclusion that when Elvis met Priscilla she was very pretty, young, naive, & moldable. It seemed she was a kept woman, who he could hide away while he hooked up with Ann Margaret & other women from his movies. Maybe he eventually married Priscilla because it was the next thing to do & was kind of expected of him. Maybe it didn’t last because they didn’t have much in common, she probably didn’t know much about life & wordly views and he hungered for more. Maybe Linda was right that he should have married a Southern girl like her. Linda Thomson was a southern belle and lived a live in front of audiences & was confident & didn’t gush over him right off.

Goldie rocks: lol, with David foster, he's a ass.

Class act?

@@jonburrows2684 . .✨yeh Ginger, get over it already. .

@@MsBonijoni .....Ginger was, I think, another one like Priscilla, whose families saw a golden opportunity and talked these women into taking up with Elvis.

@@msr1116 . .EP was too mature for Ginger, in mind & style . . I don’t really shame Cilla for pushing the marriage card on him because he did influence her from a young age, made promises to her which years after the fact he wanted to walk away from including marrying her. .he told one of his cooks at Graceland, a black woman whom he trusted and confided in, how he wasn’t interested in marrying anyone at all (Cilla) and the cook told him to call off the wedding. .his response to her was: “ I can’t do that . .” . .would it have been his own failure on a promise that he couldn’t live with? . .because I doubt that Cilla was prepared to blackmail him on something . .I believe it was the idea of his own failed honor or lack of dignity which would haunt him if he didn’t measure up to a higher standard . ..he didn’t want to become his father who failed to support the family when they were miserably poor in Tupelo. ..the saddest years of their lives. .

She never loved Elvis, only his money and his name!!!!

Very wise woman, so many things to learn from her.

Yesss! She is❤

its a shame that linda and elvis didnt gat married elvis might still be alive today if they had married

Bruce was certainly lucky, that's for sure.

So sad he was legally addicted by Doctor prescription drugs for most part!

Doctors still do this . Push pharmaceuticals . But now they have to be careful because of the opiate issues and people dying . So now , you can’t get a pain pill

Spoken so well. My son was the kindest most loving person but drugs held him captive until the only way he saw to break free was tragically by suicide.

@@cathyvaal4625 So so sorry for your son’s pain and really sorry for your broken heart now ❤️💙

@@tonifoster1835 thank you for reaching out. It is hard to believe it was 12 years ago, but I cry and miss him every day. He was only 19 and had so much of life to live, but that is what drugs do. They take away your life . You are so kind to comment.♥️

joe celozzi Memphis girl!!

@@deboisblanc just wondering why she dosent have ã southern accent tho!!

I honestly believe that if Priscilla didn’t have Lisa, she would have been history with him. Not saying he didn’t care for her but they wouldn’t have kept in touch as much

@@skel760 Yes, I agree. I’d even go so far as saying it’s highly probable he’d have cut ties with her completely, because I think it was his pride which was wounded the most after she left him for another man, so I doubt he’d have remained close to her after that if they never had Lisa.

Idol? People should never idolize an entertainer.

Lucky lady to have loved such an iconic man as Elvis.

​@@patriciabarnes6841 1973 Elvis the best looks with linda😍

Yes!

SHE WAS A HE.. WAKE UP

It's called plastic surgery, but yes, she was always beautiful.

@@paullukasik8698 .....I agree with both parts of your statement. With these women past 40 or 50, it's their suddenly fuller cheeks that give them away--whose faces in youth were angular and showed no extra weight. Priscilla, Suzanne Sommers are two others who come to mind.

Completely agree. After Linda was gone, Elvis went completely downhill due to his illnesses. Linda is a class act.

DEB sadly only Elvis could turn Elvis around

@@MarneyII that's true

Exactly as a woman it hurts to know the man your committed to is not faithful. I am not sure why Elvis didn’t get it.

@@MarneyII Jesus Christ had to make Elvis take care of himself.

@@gracieg7601 Linda was having an affair with Elvis's keyboard player David Briggs for several months before they broke up,, he was leaving Linda for that reason not her leaving him,, n she contintued to see David after she n Elvis split

But that would have been at the expense of Linda's own mental and physical health. Countless women have cared for children, aging parents or a spouse with compromised health requiring constant attention and extra effort, eventually wearing down the caregiver's body and mind. Not realistically possible to continue this sort of commitment indefinitely.

whether he married her or not he still would have died when he did , nothing was going to stop that not even marrying linda !! elvis had an illness that was going to take him at a very young age !

@@msr1116 i agree.. I think Elvis was into deep with drugs towards the end of their relationship & was one of the reason why They drift apart- And Elvis lifestyle of the many girlfriends- that didn't give Elvis reason to fight for their relationship. As if there was always another woman to replaced (Elvis was not a type to commit into Monogamous Relationship) - And that's when Ginger Alden came into picture November 1976.

Bruce blew it too!

He is still alive he never died He is now pastor Bob joyce

Le char: I don't see any thumbs down.

Because she tries to negate and play down the role of Elvis's true love, Pricilla.

❤really smart, sweet and elegant lady!

lol 🤣, that's actually kinda funny !! ... I do love 💜 Linda though, and think she was good for Elvis, even if they didn't last ... she really has had an amazing life, with Elvis, Bruce Jenner, and David Foster, all very different and famous "men", at the time she shared with them ... and she was very respectful of both Elvis and the now Caitlin to wait 40 years before sharing her stories !! ... haven't read her book yet, but I want to ...

To bad she was'nt elvis next wife and ginger was the next one

Hello how are you doing?

Hello how are you doing?

Gag...Linda Thompson was Elvis's groupie of choice, still making money on Elvis interviews. She doesn't make that much off of interviews about Bruce/Katelyn Jenner. Linda Thompson is not nice...very creepy

Really? This woman is so pretentious...fake. She acted hard to get ... For Elvis Presley,'s attention??? What a Joke!!! What a lier!!! One year together with Elvis exclusively was her biggest brag of her life. Paints her self so pure and innocent is truly disgusting. This woman was a classic gold digger. She's disgusting!!!..."I was a virgin till I met Elvis!"..."I was so innocent!". Linda Thompson was nothing but a fame seeking groupie and very easy.

From Elvis to Bruce Jenner...total gold digger, she was probably a big influence on Bruce's choice of gender?
