Priscilla Presley has finally opened up about her decades-long journey with Scientology and the world is listening. For years people wondered if the former wife of Elvis Presley was still a member of the controversial group. In a recent interview, she shared some deep insights into her time there and why she decided it was time to move on to a new chapter in her life.
She mentions that things were very different when she first joined, compared to how they are today. While she doesn’t use harsh words or share “horror stories” she admits that her time with the group was a major part of her life. It’s fascinating for fans to hear her talk about this because she’s usually very private about her personal beliefs.
Priscilla says she gained some positive things from the experience like learning to see the “bigger picture.” She feels it helped her open her mind and find new ways of working through life’s challenges. However she eventually realized that the high demands and constant classes were taking too much time away from the things she truly wanted to do, like acting in movies and spending time with her family.
The most interesting part of her story is that she didn’t leave because of a bad experience. Instead, she simply felt she needed more freedom to live her life her own way. As she gets older, her focus has shifted to her children and grandchildren, and she wants to be there for them without any extra pressure or commitments.

It seems that her daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, leaving the group was a big turning point for Priscilla as well. Seeing her daughter’s journey made her rethink her own involvement and realize that she was ready for a change. It shows just how strong their mother-daughter bond was, even in their most private decisions.
Now, Priscilla says she is in a “really good place” and enjoys her privacy more than ever. She’s choosing for herself what she wants to do and when she wants to do it.
