A new bombshell claim was dropped in a $50 million (£37 million) breach of contract lawsuit filed by Brigitte Kruse in December. According to an exclusive report by TMZ, Brigitte, who was Priscilla Presley's former business partner, is suing Navarone Garcia, Priscilla Presley’s son, for breach of contract.

The shocking thing about the lawsuit is that it alleges that Elvis Presley’s granddaughter, Riley Keough, donated her egg so actor John Travolta and his late wife, Kelly Preston, could “get pregnant” with their 15-year-old son, Ben Travolta.

The court documents also claim that Lisa Marie Presley, the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, also donated eggs to the couple, but they were not used because John and Kelly did not want ‘eggs with heroin’ on them. Riley was compensated with “an old Jaguar and paid between $10,000 - $20,000.”


More details on the Brigitte Kruse and Presley legal battle

According to the court documents, family tensions intensified after Riley’s mother, Lisa Marie, died in 2023. It stated that the Presley family fought for control of the estate, and Kruse and Fialko were used as negotiators and mediators on different occasions.

Marty Singer and Wayne Harman, the attorneys of Priscilla Presley, told TMZ exclusively:

“After losing motion after motion in this case, and unsuccessfully seeking to have Presley’s counsel of record, Marty Singer, disqualified from representing her in this matter, Brigitte Kruse, Kevin Fialko, and their co-conspirators have demonstrated that there is no bar too low, no ethical line that they are unwilling to cross in an effort to cause further pain to Priscilla Presley and her family.”

They continued:

“In a completely improper effort to exert undue pressure on Presley to retract her legitimate, truthful claims, Kruse and her co-conspirators have also sued Presley’s son, cousin, and assistant.”

Adding:

“These recent outrageous allegations have absolutely nothing to do with the claims in this case. The conduct of Kruse, Fialko, and their new lawyers (they are on their fourth set of attorneys) is shameful, and it absolutely will be addressed in court.”

Meanwhile, representative of Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko, Jordan Matthews, of Holtz Matthews LLP, told TMZ:

“Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko are heartbroken that they have been forced to file their most recent amended complaint. They have been accused of horrific acts that are not supported by any evidence whatsoever.”

Adding:

“This amended complaint is about revealing the truth, correcting the record, and providing evidence of the work that was done in good faith to bring peace, resolution, and stability to the Presley family, despite being exposed to constant volatility.”
