Joe — at left, with Elvis and Priscilla at their wedding — told The ENQUIRER he burned the letter to hide the explosive contents from Elvis’ family and investigators. He also removed addicted Elvis’ stash of prescription painkillers.

“It was better to protect his family and his legacy by hiding everything — the note and his pills,” Joe said, adding that in the letter, Elvis confessed, “losing Priscilla was the greatest mistake of his life — and he couldn’t recover from the heartache.”

Joe noted Elvis also wrote that he was “embarrassed I can’t kick drugs” and felt “betrayed” by his overweight body. Since Joe broke his silence, a second letter has now surfaced! That note, written in January 1977 — seven months before Elvis was found slumped in his bathroom.

“I need a long rest,” the legendary singer scribbled. “I’m sick and tired of my life.” Elvis paints a clear picture of a man at the end of his rope in this message to Billy Miller, a member of the Memphis Mafia, who kept its contents secret — until now!

“The handwritten note appears to be genuine,” said Elvis’ stepbrother Rick Stanley. “To me, it’s a clear indication that suicide was on his mind.” Elvis was 42 when his lover, Ginger Alden, found him dead at 2 p.m. on Aug. 16, 1977.

After The ENQUIRER report, Priscilla Presley also said that she felt Elvis "knew what he was doing" as he ended his life. The King's death was reported as a heart attack, but it's now clear that Elvis deliberately overdosed to off himself!
