Priscilla Presley blames herself for ex-hubby Elvis’ fatal overdose — because she rejected his plea to get married again during a desperate meeting just days before he died! The National ENQUIRER confirmed with sources that at the time, the King of Rock ’n’ Roll was grossly overweight, gobbled prescription pain pills like popcorn and was engaged to 20-year-old Ginger Alden, a dead ringer for his ex-wife — who he insisted was his one true love.

Elvis insisted

He turned to her and blurted out: “I never planned to marry Ginger. I’m miserable.

Joe Esposito, Elvis’ best man and former manager, revealed before he died last year that Priscilla blamed herself for the tragedy. Joe claimed Priscilla believed her affair with karate instructor
Mike Stone, which triggered their divorce, helped push Elvis into his fatal drug nightmare. Esposito insisted Priscilla told his girlfriend, “‘I’m afraid I killed Elvis’ — and in a way she did. He never recovered from losing her and died wanting her back.”
