Much has been written about Elvis Presley's Graceland mansion in Memphis, Tennessee, but ex-girlfriend Linda Thompson shares some interesting trivia on the mansion in an article in the Express (U.K.).
It begins with:
Elvis Presley had a number of serious relationships, including with Miss Tennessee Universe Linda Thompson. The young model dated The King from 1972 to 1976 after his separation and divorce from Priscilla Presley. And now the 70-year-old has shared some fascinating photos from inside Graceland when she lived with the star during that period.
Linda wrote on her Instagram account: “Flashback Friday to that year I helped Elvis re-decorate Graceland - deferring to his distinctive taste…
“The jungle room has become the most famous room at Graceland…
“I’m not sure why I was wearing a ‘me Jane, you Tarzan’ ensemble, but I guess that’s part of the reason the room got it’s name…”
The King’s former girlfriend shared a couple of pictures of herself in the Jungle Room dressed in the theme of the room, alongside a photo of Elvis smoking a cigar while driving her.
