Linda Thompson and her time with Elvis Presley

Linda is now 69 but she was only 22 when she met singer Elvis Presley who was 15 years older than her. But he was an object of affection for her for many years. Linda recalls telling her parents when she was young that she would marry Elvis Presley when she grew up.

Linda contested in the regional beauty pageant contest and was crowned the winner of Miss Tennessee. She met and dated Elvis Presley from 1972 to 1976. During the four and half years of courtship, she was with him 24/7. But later they separated.

Linda Thompson and her talk about her time with Elvis Presley

The actress wrote her autobiography termed A Little Thing Called Life. In this, she describes her time together with her former boyfriend Elvis Presley.

She says she was a good Southern girl and a virgin when she met Elvis. The singer promised her that he would not pressure her for sex until the time she was ready for it. And he kept his promise.

After two months of living, she was ready to go ahead to the next level in their relationship. She writes:

“We were in our king-sized bed on a pedestal, with a mirrored ceiling above us, reflecting Elvis and me tangled in loving entwinement of arms, legs, kisses and deeply felt intimacy. And let’s just say if you’re not ready then, you’re never going to be ready in your whole entire lifetime.
“It was time to go big or go home. It was all so unbelievably romantic, and perfect, and heartfelt, and I knew I was ready to make love with this man I absolutely adored with all of my heart and soul.”

Linda Thompson’s detailed description

The actress added in her autobiography:

“He was so sweet and tender with me, and yet I was overcome by emotion, and I began to cry softly. I believe I had attached so much significance to losing my virginity I needed to shed a few tears over the moment.
“Looking back, I realise how antiquated my perception of the entire scene was, but remember Elvis was an old-fashioned guy who appreciated the heck out of my innocence. Elvis head me close, comforting me. ‘Honey, don’t cry,’ he said. ‘Please don’t cry’.”

Linda continues:

“‘No, go ahead,’ he said. ‘You go ahead. You cry. That’s what you need to do right now. You do anything you want to. If you want to cry, you cry, sweetheart.’
“In that moment, as in so many others, he was such a loving, kind, compassionate partner. That’s why he got away with so much, I think now, with a knowing laugh, when I look back on our time together.”
