Who was Benjamin Keough?
Benjamin Storm Keough was born in Florida on October 21, 1992.
He was the son of singers Lisa Marie Presley and Danny Keough.
Ben’s sister is actress and model Riley Keough, 30, who is married to Mad Max co-star Ben Smith-Petersen.
Lisa Marie once told TMZ: “Ben does look so much like Elvis. He was at the Opry and was the quiet storm behind the stage.”
“Everybody turned around and looked when he was over there. Everybody was grabbing him for a photo because it is just uncanny.”
Though Benjamin came from a very famous family, he liked to keep out of the public eye.
He worked as a musician and did some acting work, including some voice work for the animated short Rod & Barry.
He also appeared in the 2005 documentary Elvis by The Presleys, where Elvis’ friends and family shared happy memories of the singer.
Benjamin had a close relationship with his mother Lisa Marie.
His middle name, Storm, inspired the title track on her third album, Storm & Grace, released in 2012.
After splitting from Riley and Ben’s dad, musician Danny Keough, Lisa Marie married Michael Jackson in 1994.
She has also been married to actor Nicholas Cage and her music producer, Michael Lockwood.
What happened to him?
Benjamin Keough died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound on July 12, 2020, aged 27.
The Sun revealed he was found at Lisa Marie’s family home in Calabasas, California about 6:30am local time, although it is unknown if she, or her other children, were at the property at the time.
Lisa Marie’s representative, Roger Widynowski, revealed to People that she is “completely heartbroken, inconsolable and beyond devastated” by the tragic loss.
Widynowski said the mom-of-four is trying to stay strong for her 11-year-old twins and her oldest daughter Riley.
“She adored that boy,” he said. “He was the love of her life.”
Who is Diana Pinto?
Diana Pinto was reportedly Keough’s girlfriend.
She works as a post-production coordinator at Fox, according to her LinkedIn page.
A neighbor of Keough’s told the Daily Mail that they heard residents partying in his $1.8million Calabasas home until the early hours of July 12.
They went on to say they heard a woman’s voice screaming ‘don’t do it!’ at 3.30am.
The woman was believed to be Benjamin’s girlfriend.
“I saw what appeared to be his girlfriend outside talking to police, and she was pretty hysterical saying ‘I can’t believe it,'” the neighbor said.
“She just kept swearing and saying, ‘I can’t believe it, I can’t believe it.’ She was saying ‘I can’t believe he would do that to himself.'”
The neighbor claimed they had seen the woman go in and out of the residence with Benjamin and that the couple dated for two years.
“They’re very private,” a neighbor told DailyMail.com.
“They go out of their way to turn around and not even wave or anything. Not that they’re rude, they just don’t want anybody to know who they are.”
Reports about Benjamin’s relationship are currently unsubstantiated.
