Priscilla Presley Says Bam Margera’s Claim That She Gave Him Elvis’ Robe And Ring When He Visited Her Home Was A Lie, And Bam Responded
Priscilla Presley has enough on her plate these days, between coming to grips with the tragic passing of her daughter, Lisa Marie Presley, and deciding to fight her granddaughter for control of LMP’s life insurance money. So, being roped into the fart cloud that is Bam Margera’s cantankerous and exhausting orbit was probably the last thing she needed right now (or ever). Alas, Bam recently ended up at Priscilla’s house because he WAS friends with her son, Navarone Garcia. Bam posted pics of him and Priscilla on Instagram and implied they were tight, and soon after, claimed she gave him a ring and robe that belonged to Elvis Presley. But, Priscilla just spoke up and said that everything Bam claimed was a lie–she doesn’t even know him and was just cordial with him since Navarone brought him over, and she agreed to the pics with him because Bam said his dad was a big fan. She also lamented that Bam filmed in her home without her consent, she would NEVER give away Elvis’ personal possessions, and the ring and robe weren’t even Elvis’. Bam then apologized to them both and said it was actually Navarone who gifted him Elvis’ stuff, but Priscilla says she and Nav are both completely done with Bam and his clout-chasing messiness.
It all started last week when Bam posted pics of the unexpected pairing:
And with “new friend” Navarone:
According to TMZ, Bam–who apparently has such delusions of grandeur that he fancies himself important enough to crown the new king of rock ’n’ roll–said during that get-together, Priscilla gave him one of the King’s rings, which he then passed on to Yelawolf because he thinks he should take the throne. He said she also gave him one of Elvis’ robes, which he gave to his dad, Phil Margera.
As we know, Bam has recently battled serious health issues and is back in the throes of his addiction (or never left). And according to Priscilla, he’s also an opportunistic liar who lied about every facet of this encounter.
Priscilla tells TMZ … Bam has betrayed not only her, but also her son Navarone Garcia, by falsely claiming she gifted him a couple of Elvis’ personal items and filming in their home without her consent.
Bam made it seem like he and Priscilla were buddies, but she says that statement couldn’t be further from the truth. Instead, Priscilla tells us Navarone asked her to have a “new friend” come over for a visit, but she had no idea it was Bam “or that later he would choose to post photos and false stories.”
Priscilla says Bam, “came over, talked non-stop about his new ventures and personal struggles and asked for a photo with me for his father, who is a big fan.”
She continues … “Unbeknownst to us at the time, Bam chose to circulate those photos accompanied by false information and storytelling. After what Bam has chosen to do, my son and I want no further communication with him. I consider him a dishonest and unstable individual. I had no idea who he was or that he was filming in my home without my consent.”
And she says the robe wasn’t even Elvis’, and the ring was one of Bam’s own that he tried to pass off!
What’s more, Priscilla’s camp says the robe did not belong to Elvis and the ring is actually one of Bam’s.
Priscilla adds … “At no time during the visit did I give him anything of Elvis’. I still have everything he ever touched. I would never disrespect Elvis who was the love of my life by giving away anything that belonged to him. I have always protected them for the fans. Elvis belonged to all of you and I cherish my life with him too much to ever squander anything.”
Priscilla tells us she hopes Bam “gets the help he needs and does what is right.”
Bam issued a weak apology to Priscilla and Navarone but didn’t address whether or not the items actually belonged to Elvis. He changed his story and said it was Nav who gave him the items, and he plans to repay him by making him a shitty Bam-branded necklace since he wants to make music with him in the future.
Nevertheless, Bam is seemingly continuing to maintain the robe and ring did once belong to Elvis Presley … though in a lengthy Instagram post, he says Navarone, not Priscilla, was the one who gave him the memorabilia.
Bam says … “Navarone gave me a robe and ring that I gave Phil to be a part of Phil’s Elvis stuff.”
“I’m making Navarone a $10,000 Heartagram necklace because I love his band … with hopes to record and tour.”
Here’s his apology to Priscilla and “Navarone Presley” (that’s not his name):
It looks like Bam doesn’t even need to “bend his dick to his ass to fuck himself,” because he’s doing a fine job of that by continuing to behave like a grade-A douche, squander opportunities, and alienate those who are begging him to get his life together.
