Now, at 84, the woman once hailed as the “female Elvis” has finally broken her silence, delivering a revelation that redefines one of Hollywood’s greatest untold love stories.
🎬 Sparks on the Set of Viva Las Vegas
The year was 1963, and Elvis Presley was already the undisputed King of Rock and Roll. Ann-Margret, a rising star with a voice and energy that mirrored his own, was cast as his leading lady in Viva Las Vegas.
The moment they met, the chemistry was undeniable.
“It was electric,” Ann-Margret confesses. “From the first moment, we knew we were kindred spirits.”

Elvis was already deeply involved with Priscilla Presley, who was living at Graceland.
Ann-Margret was under pressure from studio bosses to avoid scandal.
Despite the risks, they shared stolen nights, whispered promises, and a secret bond that grew deeper than either expected.
“He could be vulnerable with me,” Ann-Margret reveals. “With me, he didn’t have to be the King—he could just be Elvis.”

The news of his death on August 16, 1977, devastated her.
“A part of me went with him that day,” she admits softly.
