Elvis Presley’s ex wishes she had gotten pregnant by the singer

Elvis Presley’s ex wishes she had gotten pregnant by the singer

Elvis Presley ultimately had only one child – the late Lisa Marie Presley. But one of his ex-girlfriends wished the legendary singer had more children. Carol Connors regrets that she did not let Presley impregnate her.

“I was with him for nine months,” she claimed on Fox News. “He said two and a half years. It wasn’t two and a half years. I told him it wasn’t like that sometimes. But I was with him for nine months. Didn’t have a baby. I was too stupid.”

Connors got personal about Elvis, revealing that he was a good kisser. Ultimately, she said the singer really meant a lot to her. “But he was really important to me,” she said. “He was a gentle soul back then. He was very sweet, very respectful. We got along. We had beautiful moments together – we really did.”

She also wasn’t afraid to approach Presley. Connors wasn’t obsessed with the singer as a symbol.

“One time he told a joke and everyone laughed, but I didn’t laugh,” Connors said. “He said, ‘Why aren’t you laughing, Carol?’ I said, ‘Because it’s not funny.’ And he said, ‘You know that and I know that, but they’re going to laugh.’ And they did.”

Connors said she was at the grocery store when a “creepy guy” approached her about Elvis Presley. That was the first time she learned that Elvis was interested in her.

“He says, ‘Aren’t you the girl who sang ‘To Know Him Is To Love Him?'” she said. “He said, ‘Elvis Presley would like to meet you.’ And I said, ‘Yeah, sure, sure, yeah, of course.’ He said, ‘No, I’m serious. He loves your voice.'” She gave him her phone number.

She continued, “‘You have to come to our house. Elvis would like to meet you.’ I said, ‘Okay.’ He picked me up at my parent’s house.”

When they first met, she said she was intimidated by Elvis. “I felt like a little mouse,” she said. “He finally came up to me after I had been standing there for ages. His first words to me were… ‘Why did you call your group the Teddy Bears?’ I thought, ‘My God, that’s Elvis Presley.’ … That’s how our love affair began.”

However, Connors and Presley eventually separated because Elvis had an alleged affair with Ann-Margret during filming Long live Las Vegas. The two separated. “I will never forget how beautiful he was,” said Connors. “I always believed that Ann-Margret was one of the great loves of his life. I always believed that. And I asked him once, but he refused to answer that question.”

But it wasn’t until she asked one of Presley’s friends after his death that Connors realized that the singer idolized her.

“I said, ‘Joe, tell me the truth. Did Elvis really care about me?'” Connors said. “He said, ‘Yes, Carol, he adored you. He thought you were so pretty.’ At the time, (Presley’s ex-wife) Priscilla and I looked alike… But I believed him. There was no reason for Joe to tell me that.”
