Just two days earlier, Austin paid tribute to Lisa Marie in his acceptance speech at the Golden Globes.
The actor played Lisa Marie’s father Elvis in Baz Luhrmann’s biopic Elvis.
After winning Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Austin said: “I want to thank the Presley family.
“Thank you, guys. Thank you for opening your hearts, your memories, and your home to me.”
Turning to Lisa Marie and Priscilla, who sat in the audience, he added: “Lisa Marie, Priscilla, I love you forever.”
Lisa Marie looked emotional and covered her mouth with both hands as guests applauded around her.
Earlier in the evening, she was seen looking frail and clinging to the actor’s arm as they walked the red carpet.
The Golden Globes organizers said Lisa Marie had been “a very welcome presence” at Tuesday’s awards.
What we know so far:
In a statement after her death, they called her “an extremely talented singer/songwriter.”
They added: “We are incredibly saddened to hear of the passing of Lisa Marie Presley. May you rest in peace.”
Lisa Marie was found unresponsive in her Calabasas home in California on Thursday.
‘CARDIAC ARREST’
She went into “full [cardiac] arrest” and was given adrenaline at least once to help her regain her pulse, TMZ reported.
The outlet reported that her housekeeper found her unresponsive in the bedroom of her home.

Lisa Marie’s ex-husband Danny Keough is said to have administered CPR on the scene.
She was then taken to an Intensive Care Unit where she was put on life support and had a temporary pacemaker fitted.
Priscilla, 77, was spotted arriving at the hospital where her daughter is being treated.
Her other daughter, Deborah Presley Brando, was also seen outside the hospital.
HEARTBREAKING STATEMENT
Priscilla confirmed Lisa Marie’s death in a heartbreaking statement.
She told PEOPLE: “It is with a heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us.”
The actress went on: “She was the most passionate, strong, and loving woman I have ever known. We ask for privacy as we try to deal with this profound loss.
“Thank you for your love and prayers. At this time there will be no further comment.”
Priscilla and Elvis’ only daughter has had her share of struggles through the years, battling addiction, dealing with divorce, and most recently facing the shocking death of her own son, Benjamin.
Benjamin died by suicide inside Lisa Marie’s home in July 2020 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
He shot himself during a party for his girlfriend’s birthday.
An autopsy report obtained by The U.S. Sun confirmed that his cause of death was a single gunshot and the manner of death was ruled a suicide.
He had alcohol and cocaine in his system at the time of his death.
Lisa Marie was open about her struggles with grief after losing her son, telling fans that the “depth of the pain is suffocating.”
