How close were Priscilla Presley and Navarone Garcia with Bam Margera? Elvis robe claims refuted

It looks as if Jack-Ass performer Bam Margera may have pulled another stunt in the form of making false claims about owning some of Elvis’ clothing and accessories.

Bam, real name Brandon Margera, recently posted a picture to his Instagram with the King of Rock n Roll’s ex-wife Priscilla Presley, captioning it ‘lunch with Priscilla Presley’, before sharing another image with the actress insinuating that she was looking at a picture of his five-year-old son Phoenix Wolf Margera.

It must be noted that Priscilla is not the only family member seen to be close to the skateboarder turned stunt performer as Bam is also close friends with Priscilla’s son Navarone Garcia.

This friendship may provide a clearer explanation as to why Bam was having lunch with Priscilla, as it was reported the Jack-Ass star came to the house as one of Navarone’s ‘new friends’, says TMZ.

While these snapshots may have led some to believe that the pair had created an unlikely friendship, further questions were raised about how close they were when Bam claimed to have a robe and a ring that once belonged to Elvis, and was planning on gifting it to his father.

The ‘Suspicious Minds’ questioning Bam’s confession were proved correct when Priscilla started slating his claim, insisting that he had ‘betrayed not only her, but also her son’ through making false statements and filming in her house without consent.

Priscilla said: "[Bam] came over, talked non-stop about his new ventures and personal struggles and asked for a photo with me for his father, who is a big fan... Unbeknownst to us at the time, Bam chose to circulate those photos accompanied by false information and storytelling.

"After what Bam has chosen to do, my son and I want no further communication with him. I consider him a dishonest and unstable individual."

The feud comes as Priscilla and Bam are both going through a tumultuous time with the actress still mourning her daughter’s death and challenging a trust that Lisa Marie Presley changed before she passed, and Bam battling sobriety.

Priscilla continued: "I would never disrespect Elvis who was the love of my life by giving away anything that belonged to him. I have always protected them for the fans… I do hope this man gets the help he needs and does what is right."

Bam has since posted an apology to Priscilla on his social media, although he still insists he was given a robe by Navarone.
