Lisa Marie Presley's son and Elvis Presley's grandson, Benjamin Keough, has died of an apparent suicide ... TMZ has learned. http://instagram.com/p/BkPTvbyA-6H Law enforcement sources tell us Ben appears to have died Sunday in Calabasas from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. http://instagram.com/p/BkRLh6Chpyc Not much is known about him other than the fact that he's got a super-famous family. He's the son of Lisa and musician Danny Keough -- and his sister is actress Riley Keough, who's been in a number of indie and horror films over the years, including 2019's "The Lodge." http://instagram.com/p/BkSlnalhWt7 Of course ... his grandparents are Elvis and Priscilla Presley. Ben has kept a low profile throughout the years, but the one thing he's well-known for is looking almost identical to his famous grandfather, The King himself. Lisa addressed the similarity, saying ... "Ben does look so much like Elvis. He was at the Opry and was the quiet storm behind the stage." She added, "Everybody turned around and looked when he was over there. Everybody was grabbing him for a photo because it is just uncanny." She even wrote a song about Ben called "Storm and Grace." Storm's his middle name.

The star's rep, Roger Widynowski, tells PEOPLE that Lisa Marie is "beyond devastated" over the death of her son, whom she shared with ex-husband Danny Keough. "She is completely heartbroken, inconsolable and beyond devastated but trying to stay strong for her 11-year-old twins and her oldest daughter Riley," Widynowski says. "She adored that boy. He was the love of her life." Presley is also mother to actress daughter Riley Keough, 31, and 11-year-old twin daughters, Harper and Finley, whom she shares with ex-husband Michael Lockwood. According to a report from TMZ, Keough — the grandson of the late Elvis Presley — died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound on Sunday in Calabasas, California. http://instagram.com/p/BkRLh6Chpyc A spokesperson for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment. One of Lisa Marie's most recent social media posts, which happens to be from June 2019, features the singer with her four children, including Benjamin. “Mama Lion with cubs ❤️🖤💚💙🦁🥰,” Lisa Marie had captioned the post, which showed her son leaning into older sister Riley as the group huddled for a photo. In 2012, Benjamin was featured in a music video for his mother’s rendition of Elvis’ 1954 hit “I Love You Because” along with his siblings.
