The family's latest appearance marks as one of the first for Lisa Marie after her son, Benjamin, died by suicide in 2020. Earlier this year, Lisa reflected on the tragedy as she discussed the upcoming film about her father, sharing that her late son "would have absolutely loved it."

"I haven't posted in quite some time because there really isn't much to say," the 54-year-old wrote on Instagram in May. "As I am and will forever be mourning the loss of my son." Lisa went on to explain that she broke her silence to let her fans to know that the Elvis biopic is "nothing short of spectacular."

Ahead of the film's debut, Lisa's mom, Priscilla, also echoed similar comments of praise for Austin's portrayal of the musician.
