Scott : How do you deal with the fact that many in the inner circle simply refuse to believe you and Elvis were actually engaged? Do you recall specifically which people you or he told about the engagement?
Ginger : Sorry, but I have not heard that as most have admitted that we were engaged and even a few talked about being there during the time that Elvis proposed. Elvis' jeweller Lowell Hayes, who made my ring, has been selling replicas of my engagement ring for years. George Klein is on You Tube speaking about my engagement ring as well. Vernon Presley knew of our engagement and spoke of it, Billy Smith, David and Ricky Stanley, Charlie Hodge, Elvis' Aunt Delta, Dodger, and Elvis also called a few of the maids in to show them my ring not long after he proposed on January 26th 1977.
Scott : After January 1977, when Elvis proposed, was there much further discussion on the matter? Did you have an idea of when or where you'd eventually tie the knot?
Ginger : I wrote about this in my book. Yes, Elvis brought up our marriage at various times throughout our relationship and we set a wedding date on the early morning of August 16th 1977 after we returned from a visit to his dentist.
Scott : Had the wedding taken place, where would you have liked to have gone on your honeymoon?
Ginger : Elvis mentioned Vail, Colorado and I had never been, but I certainly could have returned to Hawaii!
In 1976, she left Presley as Elvis began dating Ginger Alden, his last serious girlfriend and the person who found his unresponsive body on the day he died. "Some doubt he ever had sex again," and Alden, whom Elvis had given a diamond engagement ring and presumably planned to marry, has been described as "too polite to say." However, Alden finally revealed in her 2014 memoir that they did "make love," indicating sexual intimacy.
