Elvis Had A Twin
When Elvis Aaron Presley came into the world, he wasn’t alone. His mother, Gladys Presley, had actually been pregnant with twins, but his brother, Jesse Garon Presley, was stillborn. Despite their joy upon receiving Elvis, Gladys and Vernon were devastated by the tragic loss of Jesse.
However, Elvis’s mother and father decided to pour all of their love and attention into the newborn child they did have rather than focus on the one they had lost. Some people believe that the traumatic experience of losing his twin brother was one of the reasons Elvis never wanted to be alone.
