Following the death of Lisa Marie Presley, her twin daughters, Harper and Finley Lockwood, were placed under the guardianship of their father, Michael Lockwood. But their big sister Riley Keough, of course, made sure to be a pillar of support for the two, which is why she and her husband, Ben Smith-Petersen, moved to Calabasas to be closer to the pair. Keough didn’t even have qualms about moving into a home “that isn’t my aesthetic” for the sake of looking after the twins. Being nearer to her sisters was her number one priority.
Keough’s bond with her sisters extends beyond the usual sibling relationship. Speaking with Wonderwall, the “Daisy Jones and the Six” star explained that she feels more of a mother to them than a sibling because of their significant age difference. “I’m more maternal to them whereas my brother and I are sort of more equal,” she said. “I was a grownup for their whole lives, so it’s more of, like, a caretaker relationship.”
And while Keough also had to tend to a child of her own, she has reportedly been diligent in carving out quality time for the two, just as their grandmother, Priscilla Presley, does. “Riley and Priscilla have relationships with the twins,” an insider told Us Weekly. “Riley comes over to pick up the girls for the day and Priscilla also spends time with them.”
