December 24th in Elvis History

It's December twenty-fourth, and on this day in 1966… Elvis Presley proposed to Priscilla Beaulieu, presenting her with a ring he had previously purchased from Harry Levitch. The moment was the culmination of their years-long relationship, marking a turning point in both their lives just hours before Christmas. The proposal took place at Graceland, surrounded by the elaborate holiday decorations that had become a Presley tradition.
