The couple’s relationship was considered quite serious, and they were engaged to be married. However, unfortunately, Presley passed away on August 16, 1977, just a few months before their planned wedding.

Their engagement was brief but it was a significant one for both of them, as it was the last serious relationship Elvis had before his death, and for Alden, it was a chance of a lifetime to be engaged to one of the most famous musicians of all time.

Alden has spoken fondly of her time with Presley and has shared many personal memories of him in interviews.
