😳 “He NEVER Forgave Them” – Elvis Presley’s Final List: 6 Women He Secretly HATED 💔🎤

 

As Elvis Presley spiraled through the final years of his life, weighed down by fame, heartbreak, and addiction, he remained haunted by more than just the pressure of being an icon.

Friends, former bodyguards, and close aides have since revealed what few dared to speak publicly—Elvis nursed grudges.

And not just any grudges.

Some of his deepest wounds came from women.

Not flings.

Not random tabloid tales.

These were women he once trusted, admired, or even loved—and who, in his eyes, turned on him.

First on the list was Anita Wood, the girl-next-door who dated Elvis for nearly five years in the late 1950s.

She was there during his rise to superstardom.

But according to insiders, Elvis never forgave Anita for leaving him after discovering his growing relationship with Priscilla Beaulieu.

“He always saw Anita as ‘the one who walked away,’” said Red West, a member of Elvis’s inner circle.

“Even though he pushed her out, he hated how easily she moved on.

” Elvis reportedly referred to her as “the one who gave up on Graceland.

Second was Natalie Wood, the Hollywood starlet with whom Elvis had a brief but fiery romance in the early ’60s.

Friends say the relationship ended abruptly after Natalie allegedly mocked Elvis’s Southern roots and his overbearing attachment to his mother, Gladys.

Elvis felt humiliated—and never forgot it.

“He told us she laughed at him, said he was a mama’s boy and not ‘Hollywood enough,’” said another former confidante.

“He took it as a betrayal, not just personally but culturally.

Third: Peggy Lipton, the stunning Mod Squad actress who wrote in her memoir about sleeping with Elvis—and not being impressed.

That didn’t sit well with the King.

“He hated being talked about like that,” said Sonny West, another member of the famed Memphis Mafia.

“It wounded his pride.

He felt exposed.

” For Elvis, who carefully cultivated his mystique and masculine aura, Lipton’s brutally honest account of their time together was like a public slap in the face.

Number four was the woman who should’ve been off-limits to such resentment: Priscilla Presley.

Despite being his wife, the mother of his only child, and the woman who stood by him during his prime, Elvis’s relationship with Priscilla deteriorated into bitterness and distrust after their 1973 divorce.

“He loved her—but he couldn’t stand her,” one longtime friend said bluntly.

“She became the symbol of everything he felt he lost.

” Elvis reportedly bristled at how independent and assertive Priscilla became post-divorce.

Seeing her thrive without him—building her own brand, taking control of her life—was, ironically, more painful than the actual breakup.

Fifth on the list was Ann-Margret, the vivacious redhead who starred opposite Elvis in Viva Las Vegas.

Their chemistry on-screen was legendary—and their off-screen affair was even more intense.

But according to sources, Elvis felt deeply betrayed when Ann-Margret spoke publicly about their romance after it ended.

“He didn’t like his women talking,” said Joe Esposito, Elvis’s road manager.

“He expected loyalty and silence.

” While many fans still romanticize their passionate bond, insiders say Elvis saw Ann-Margret’s openness as disloyalty—something he never forgot.

Finally, the sixth and most shocking name: Barbara Leigh, a former Playboy model and actress who had a brief but passionate fling with Elvis in the early ’70s.

She later became known not only for her own fame but for her alleged connections to both Elvis and Steve McQueen—at the same time.

Whether true or not, Elvis was reportedly furious when he found out.

“He couldn’t stand the idea that someone he was with could also be with another star,” said Marty Lacker, another Memphis Mafia member.

“He felt played.

And Elvis didn’t like feeling second-best to anyone.

It’s worth noting that this list wasn’t formally written down—no document, no diary entry, no tell-all note.

But according to multiple members of his trusted circle, Elvis spoke frequently and bitterly about these six women in the final years of his life.

“It wasn’t just anger,” one source explained.

“It was sadness, ego, and heartbreak all rolled into one.

These weren’t just lovers—they were milestones of loss in his life.

As fans continue to revere Elvis as the King, the man behind the crown remains as complex as ever.

Charming yet controlling, generous yet insecure, he lived a life of extremes.

And when it came to women, he expected loyalty, devotion, and silence.

When he didn’t get that—when he felt rejected, mocked, or exposed—his emotions turned quickly to resentment.

In the end, Elvis Presley died with his name etched in history, but his heart deeply scarred by the women he once brought into his world.

The image may have been all rhinestones and velvet, but behind the glitter, there was bitterness that ran decades deep.

And now, as the curtain continues to lift on the King’s private world, we’re only beginning to understand how much of that heartbreak shaped his tragic final years.
