On the call you can hear both Lisa Marie's housekeeper and her ex-husband who were in a panic after finding Presley unresponsive. Jim Moret tells us what the call reveals. And they once lived the highlife as the stars of their own reality show, Chrisley Knows Best - but today Todd and Julie Chrisley reported to prison after being convicted of bank fraud and tax evasion - and during a final shopping spree, it sure looked like Todd was giving an outfit that looks like prison-stripes a test run.

If last night's Critics Choice Awards is any indication – Covid is putting a damper on the award show season. A number of the night's big stars couldn't attend after testing positive and its believed some of them may have picked up the virus at last week's Golden Globes. Will the virus also cast a cloud over the Oscars? And someone in Maine has a huge smile on their face today because they just won 1.35 billion dollars in the Mega Millions jackpot. He or she hasn't come forward yet, but who they may be is already the talk of the small town where the winning ticket was sold. Plus, as the only child of the “King of Rock and Roll” many assumed Lisa Marie Presley was a wealthy woman. However, we're now learning the 54-year-old died with her finances in a mess - even owing a million dollars to the IRS. So where did all the Elvis money go? And we're coming up on the 25th anniversary of the release of the blockbuster movie, Titanic - and after all these years the debate continues, could Rose have saved Jack by making room on that floating piece of wood? Now director James Cameron is conducting a scientific test to answer the question once and for all.

Shock and sadness…that's how America is feeling today over the news Elvis' only child, Lisa Marie Presley, died after going into cardiac arrest. As tributes pour in, we're taking a minute-by-minute look at the desperate effort to save her. We've got full coverage beginning with Jim Moret in Los Angeles who's at the hospital where Presley died. And today it was revealed Lisa Marie will be buried at Graceland. What's making her death even more tragic is that she was so young, at only 54 she should have had many more years to live. While toxicology tests will show what else may have played a role in her death...she is in the age range medical experts have seen a rise in fatal heart disease in women. Ann Mercogliano has important information you need to know. Those close to Lisa Marie Presley say she never recovered from her son's recent suicide, in fact she became so despondent she lived like a recluse…rarely leaving home. Steven Fabian has more on the final, sad year of Lisa Marie's life. And the investigation continues into the disappearance of the Massachusetts mom who hasn't been seen since New Year’s day…and while her husband remains behind bars charged with hampering the investigation, we're learning about a very scary time in their relationship. A just surfaced police report shows she once claimed he threatened to kill her. He was not charged after police said “she refused to cooperate.” To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Just two days after she attended the Golden Globes a published report claims Elvis' daughter Lisa Marie Presley was rushed to the hospital after suffering a possible cardiac arrest. According to the report, paramedics were called to the 54-year-old's home today where they performed CPR. Presley’s publicist told us they had “no comment at this time.” The sales are in for Prince Harry's memoir, Spare, and it’s breaking publishing records. The book made for an uncomfortable moment during Prince William and Kate's first official appearance since the book's release. Les Trent says someone in the crowd yelled asking 'if they've read it?' More lies are being attributed to newly elected GOP Congressman George Santos. Turns out the man who didn’t go to any college, boasted of being a college volleyball star. Did he lift parts of his resume from a man who really did do all those things? The price of eggs is up 60%...something Americans haven't seen since Richard Nixon was president! Turns out the “egg-flation” can be blamed on a bird flu outbreak that decimated egg supplies. But Ann Mercogliano found out there are some substitutes if you can find - or can’t afford eggs.

So far, 17 people have been confirmed dead in the California floods, and the search continues for the five-year-old boy named Kyle who was swept away in a flood while on the way to kindergarten. We spoke with his devastated parents today - and learned how he tried to comfort his mom as their car started filling with water. And the Golden Globes were back last night after being canceled last year amid scandal. And after concern some stars might boycott the event, the big names were there. However, as far as the show itself, well...some critics were not so kind. Plus, still no sign of the Massachusetts mom who's been missing for more than a week now and every move of her husband is under the microscope. He's behind held behind bars charged with hampering the investigation. However, the day after his wife went missing, Steven Fabian says he was caught on surveillance video buying smoothies. And there's an air of sadness on the campus at the University of Idaho.

The death toll is rising as are the flood waters across virtually all of the state of California. 34 million people are under flood watch thanks to a stubborn storm system that's parked over the state. In places like ritzy Montecito, California…residents are being ordered to evacuate immediately and that includes Prince Harry and wife Meghan. And we do know Prince Harry is far from the disaster zone...he's in New York continuing his media blitz for his new memoir with an appearance on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. He arrived to the studio flanked by bodyguards - one carrying a gun in what's called a Glock box. Les Trent tells us what that is. Plus, still no sign of the Massachusetts mom who's been missing since New Year’s Day. However, authorities say they have found more evidence and none of it bodes well. A search of a garbage transfer station has turned up clues that may be connected to Ana Walshe's disappearance. This while her husband remains behind bars charged with hampering the investigation. And students at the University of Idaho return to campus tomorrow after their holiday break, and they are going back to classes breathing a sigh of relief knowing a suspect in the quadruple murders is in custody.

An ominous development in the case of a mom missing since New Year’s Day. Her husband has been taken into custody - and has been charged with misleading police investigators. The mother of three was supposed to board a flight that day...but never made it. In arguing to keep him behind bars, prosecutors say blood was found in the family home…and he was spotted buying more than $400 of cleaning supplies. Steven Fabian has details. And was the suspect in the Idaho murders case an active participant in online chats about the case? Comments by a user are raising eyebrows because they included information only the killer could know - including the discovery of a knife sheath. Plus, today's a big day for us here at Inside Edition…as we mark our 35th season. Deborah Norville was invited to join the folks over at CBS Mornings today to talk about it. And it was a big win for the Buffalo Bills…and a big boost for Damar Hamlin who's still recovering from his near death cardiac arrest. There's been a nationwide outpouring of support for Damar…and he's paying it forward, with his words “did we win?” raising big bucks for the medical personnel who've been treating him.

We now know just how important good old fashioned police work was in cracking the University of Idaho murders case. From amassing video surveillance of the suspect’s car…to getting DNA evidence that gave them 99.998% certainty they had their man. And it was a piece of garbage from the suspect's parents homes that did that. And it doesn’t officially hit stores until next week, but there is plenty of reaction to Prince Harry's explosive book and most of it's not very favorable to the author. The book was accidentally released five days early in Spain…and as people are reading directly what Harry's put in print - some are saying he should be stripped of his titles. Plus, he saved his children's lives…and now he's fighting for his own. Former NFL running back Peyton Hillis is in intensive care today after rescuing his two young children during a swimming accident. And is it more than just a creepy coincidence? It turns out that the sister of the man charged with murdering the four University of Idaho students once starred in a slasher movie, in which students are stabbed to death.

As we head into another holiday weekend, the Southwest Airlines debacle goes on, with thousands more flights canceled today. The horror stories of stranded passengers keep coming, including from this bride to be... who was desperately trying to get her fiancé to the wedding on time. As Jim Moret reports, it wasn't the only wedding thrown into chaos. In addition, Southwest today vowed to return to normal service tomorrow with minimal disruptions over New Year's weekend... that will be music to the ears of travelers waiting in line for a rent-a-car. As Sibila Vargas reports, all those flight cancellations have led to a rental car shortage. Plus, more evidence that the house where those four University of Idaho students were murdered was party central. Another video has surfaced of cops showing up because of a noise complaint... and one of the female victims, Kaylee, can be seen just months before she was slain.

Have investigators trying to solve the murder of those four University of Idaho students hit a roadblock? That's what many fear as the police department posts a blanket request for the public's help.

If you traveled over the holiday weekend, chances are it was far from stress-free. Across the country, thousands of flights were canceled and delayed as millions were trying to get home from their Christmas vacations - and as Jim Moret reports, many are still struggling to get home. And the severe winter weather added to the travel nightmare. Winds and fierce blizzard conditions affected hundreds of millions of Americans and nowhere was the weather more destructive than in Buffalo. Total white-out conditions left motorists stranded on the roads and taking refuge anywhere they could - even hunkering down in the local Target. Plus, there are only four days left to 2022, and at the crossroads of the world, Times Square, they're already planning for the big ball drop. Sibila Vargas got a sneak peek.

She’s the wife of the governor of California who says he's proud of her and the other brave women who spoke up. The jury ended up deadlocked on the claims Siebel Newsom made. And it was a festive office Christmas party with co-workers exchanging fun gifts. However, one lady ended up walking away with a surprise that, as Les Trent tells us, turned out to be anything but a white elephant!

The second half of the Netflix series from Harry and Meghan has dropped and it’s not going to do much to bring the royal family back together. The couple contend their lives were made miserable because other family members were jealous of the attention Meghan was getting as she married into the family.

She's a doctor and says the coroner’s report revealed he died of an aortic aneurysm and nothing could have saved him. Might there have been warning signs? And could a gas station clerk's intuition help crack the case of the four murdered University of Idaho students? One month after the crime, she says she had a feeling to check the surveillance cameras where she worked...and sure enough there was a white Hyundai just like the one investigators had been looking for. It was 10 years ago today that twenty first-graders and six adults were slaughtered by a gunman with an AR-15 style rifle at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut.

With the so called “Tripledemic” of flu, RSV and Covid going strong, the CDC reporting today that nearly 10% of counties in the US are recommending you wear a mask indoors. As Ann Mercogliano reports, in some places hospitalizations are at their worst in a decade - and that's before people return from the World Cup, which some fear will be a superspreader event. And a very happy appearance on The Today Show this morning as Al Roker was back on the air after spending a month in the hospital. He joined the show remotely, just for a bit.
