It's October ninth, and on this day in 1973... Elvis and Priscilla Presley’s divorce was finalized at the Los Angeles County Superior Court in Santa Monica. The proceeding lasted only twenty minutes, and the couple emerged hand in hand afterward, symbolizing a continued sense of respect and affection. They agreed to share custody of their daughter, Lisa Marie, and Priscilla received a settlement of \$725,000 along with monthly spousal and child support. The moment marked the end of their six-year marriage and a deeply personal transition in Elvis's life.
