Michael stated that he has been dedicated to Harper and Finely since the moment they were born, and he has asked for privacy during this extremely difficult time. Lockwood's attorney told ET on Thursday that the guitar player is concentrating on their 14-year-old twin daughters, Harper and Finley, in the aftereffects of their mother's death.

Michael Lockwood's attorney, Joe Yanny, stated that Michael had hoped for Lisa Marie's quick and complete recovery after learning that she was taken to the hospital because her children required her. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. He continued by stating that Michael's world had been flipped around. He is presently together with both of his daughters.

Lisa Marie Presley married Michael Lockwood in 2006, and Lisa Marie Presley filed for divorce in 2016. After a lengthy custody battle, their divorce was finalized in May 2021. The ex-couple had joint custody. According to a source close to Michael, he currently has legal and full custody of his daughters with Lisa Marie.

According to the source, he acquired primary custody the moment Lisa Marie died and will do what it takes to protect it. There wasn't any back-and-forth communication between her ex-husband Danny, with whom she was living under the same roof at the time of her death, and Michael. They also stated that the girls and Priscilla are spending their time together right now. They are going to spend all of their time with Michael, attempting to keep as much normalcy as possible in the absence of their mother. Priscilla is going above and beyond for her grandchildren. She is there for those girls during this difficult time, according to the source. Right now, no one wants bad blood. They don't want to go through any additional pain. It has nothing to do with territory. Michael has been doing his best to deal with it. Michael's highest priority is the girls. All anyone wants is for the girls to smile.
