The couple’s time together has remained a point of fascination for fans of the legendary singer. Thompson revealed that their romantic connection was instant and shared a rare personal memory from those early days during a fan event honoring the King of Rock and Roll.
Thompson recalled the more intimate moments she and Presley shared, when it was just the two of them alone. She revealed that kissing Elvis was one of her favorite memories.
“If you take two big fluffy marshmallows, put them together, and the sweetness and the softness that they are, and you just kiss those marshmallows, that’s the closest thing I could come to imagining what it would be like kissing Elvis. Because he did have the softest and sweetest lips,: she revealed.
According to The Commercial Appeal, Thompson and Presley met for the first time in 1972. The Memphis newspaper spoke to the songwriter and actress about her memoir, A Little Thing Called Life: On Loving Elvis Presley, Bruce Jenner, and Songs in Between, in 2016.

"I was a little pert: 'To what do we owe this honor? We're kind of dressed as Dracula tonight. Well, why are you dressed like that?' Elvis said, 'Honey, I just stepped from an air-conditioned car to an air-conditioned building.'"
