What Happened To Elvis Presley's Fiancee, Ginger Alden?

Although Elvis Presley and Ginger Alden may have been in love, those positive feelings were evidently not shared among his family members. "Ginger Alden is dead now as far as the family is concerned," Presley's uncle Vester said after his death, per Express. "We don't even recognize her as a human being."

When it came to Graceland, Presley's famous estate where he died and was buried, Vester, who was the mansion's guard, claimed Alden was "barred" from entering the house after Presley died, per Express. "She couldn't get in here on her own to save her life ... she can go to the grave by calling and asking. Any time she comes to this gate I've got to call [Presley's father] Vernon and OK it." Vester added that the reason for the family's vitriol was because they felt she "took advantage of Elvis' name." In addition, the Presleys felt boosted by the fact that Alden was left out of his will.

Presley's father Vernon, for his part, seemed similarly disinterested in Alden, claiming a year after his son's death that the famous rock star had "changed his mind" about marriage, despite Alden's ardent claims that they were making wedding plans right up until the very end. Vernon died the following year, in 1979.
