Riley Keough doesn’t intend to follow in the footsteps of her mom Lisa Marie Presley when it comes to splurging on her kids.
During her appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast on Wednesday, January 15, Keough was asked by host Alex Cooper if she intends to do parenting the same way her mom did it.
Keough, who shares 2-year-old daughter Tupelo with husband Ben Smith-Petersen, replied: "I think she was such an amazing parent and she wanted us to have, I think like her father did, these amazing experiences all the time. For me personally, I think that the problem there could be for some that when you're used to so much, it's hard to find joy in simple things."
Stressing the importance of finding joy in simple things, The Lodge star continued: "And so I really want my children to be able to find joy playing in the backyard and doing normal kids stuff and not need elephants and circus and all these things all the time."
She noted that her mom’s “intention was really wanting to give everything she could to her kids,"
Riley Keough penned her mom’s life in detail in her posthumous memoir From Here to the Great Unknown.
