Lisa Marie Presley is in critical condition after suffering cardiac arrest Thursday morning, according to a report.
The 54-year-old is in the intensive care unit, where she's currently in an induced coma and on life support with a temporary pacemaker, TMZ reported, citing unnamed sources with direct knowledge of the situation.
The report comes just hours after Presley was rushed to the hospital after going into full cardiac arrest at her Calabasas, California, home Thursday morning.
Presley's housekeeper found her unresponsive in her bedroom, TMZ, which first broke the story, reported.
As the unnamed housekeeper made the discovery, Presley's ex-husband Danny Keough, with whom she lives, returned home from taking their kids to school. He administered CPR until paramedics arrived and took over.
Paramedics reportedly gave Presley at least one epinephrine shot, and her pulse was restored. She was rushed to a nearby hospital.
A spokesperson for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department told Entertainment Tonight that deputies responded to Presley's home at the request of the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACFD) at approximately 10:40 a.m.
Upon arrival, they saw paramedics rescuing a 54-year-old woman who was in cardiac arrest. The spokesperson said the paramedics helped Presley regain a pulse, and after that, she was transferred to a hospital. The spokesperson did not provide further details.
Unnamed sources told Page Six that Presley was admitted to West Hills Hospital and Medical Center.
"We were dispatched at 10:37 a.m. to a cardiac arrest call at the 5900 block of Normandy Drive in the city of Agoura," a representative for LACFD told the outlet. "We arrived on scene at 10:43 a.m. One person was transported at 11:17 a.m. The patient was a female age 55."
Priscilla Presley, 77, rushed to the hospital after learning about her daughter's condition. She was seen making a quick dash to the entrance while speaking to an unidentified man, according to a separate Page Six report.
Priscilla wore an all-dark outfit consisting of a plum shirt, black sweater, black pants and a black face mask. Most of her face was covered, but her eyes showed a stern and concerned look, the outlet noted.
Lisa Marie is the only daughter of Priscilla and Elvis Presley. The king of rock and roll died from heart disease in 1977. He was 42.
On Tuesday, the mother and daughter attended the 2023 Golden Globes ceremony. Lisa Marie even crashed Austin Butler and his sister Ashley Butler's red-carpet interview.
"What? Did I photobomb you?" she told the siblings.
Lisa Marie told them she attended the star-studded event to support Butler, Baz Luhrmann and their biopic film "Elvis."
Later that night, Butler took home the Golden Globe for best performance by an actor in a motion picture – drama for his performance as Elvis.
"Thank you for opening your hearts, your memories, your home to me," Butler told Lisa Marie and her mom Priscilla, who were seated in the audience, during his acceptance speech. "Lisa Marie, Priscilla, I love you forever."
