Elvis Presley’s granddaughter Finley Lockwood made a rare public appearance on Thursday, sparking buzz as she stepped out in Calabasas.
The 16-year-old was spotted on a casual shopping trip at Erewhon with her father Michael Lockwood, showcasing a striking resemblance to her legendary grandfather.
Dressed in a white cable knit sweater over a pink tank top with flared jeans, Finley’s features echoed those of the Jailhouse Rock icon, who passed away from a heart attack in 1977 at just 42 years old.
She and her twin sister Harper Lockwood also bear a strong resemblance to their late mother Lisa Marie Presley, who tragically died of cardiac arrest in 2023 at age 54.
Lisa Marie—the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley—left behind a rich musical legacy and a close-knit family, including her eldest daughter, actress Riley Keough, and her late son, Benjamin Keough, who passed away in 2020.
Finley and Harper, the youngest of Elvis’s descendants, have largely stayed out of the public eye since their mother’s passing, making Finley’s sighting all the more notable.

In January, the twin sisters paid tribute to their late mother by sharing poignant throwback photos from their early years.
Finley posted a heartwarming snapshot of Lisa Marie cradling them as newborns, writing, ‘2 years. I love you always.’
Harper, meanwhile, shared a tender image from their toddler years, showing their mother’s unwavering love.
‘I can’t believe it’s been 2 years,’ she wrote. ‘I miss you and love you so much, Mama.’
Lisa Marie and musician Danny first crossed paths at the Scientology Celebrity Centre in Los Angeles in 1985 and began dating soon after.
They married at the same venue in October 1988 and welcomed their first child Riley in May 1989.
Three years later, their son Benjamin was born.
Despite their deep bond, their marriage ended in 1994, though they remained close friends and dedicated co-parents, raising their children across California, Hawaii, and Florida.

Honoring that promise, Riley meticulously finished her mother’s memoir, relying on hours of recorded reflections Lisa Marie had left behind.
‘Few people had the opportunity to know who my mom really was,’ Riley said in a press release. ‘I was lucky to have had that opportunity, and working on preparing her autobiography for publication has been a privilege, albeit a bittersweet one.’
She added, ‘I’m so excited to share my mom now, at her most vulnerable and most honest. In doing so, I hope readers come to love my mom as much as I did.’
