Elvis and Priscilla effectively started dating in late 1959, soon after they met on September 13, 1959, while Elvis was stationed in Germany and Priscilla was 14. Their relationship grew over the following months as she became a regular visitor at his house and they began seeing each other romantically, even though it was long‑distance after he returned to the United States in March 1960.

Quick Scoop

  • They first met at a party at Elvis’s rented home in Bad Nauheim, West Germany, on September 13, 1959.
  • Priscilla has described herself at that time as an “impressionable 14‑year‑old,” while Elvis was 24 and already a major star.
  • Accounts of their timeline note that they “soon began dating” after that first meeting, with Priscilla visiting him frequently before he left Germany in March 1960.

How Their Early Dating Looked

  • During those months in Germany, Priscilla spent many evenings at Elvis’s home, which contemporaries and later commentators generally describe as the period when their dating relationship began.
  • After Elvis returned to the U.S. in March 1960, they maintained a long‑distance relationship until she eventually moved to Memphis and into Graceland as a teenager a few years later.

Why People Still Talk About It

  • The age gap and the fact that Priscilla was only 14 when they started seeing each other make their early relationship a continuing focus of discussion in documentaries, articles, and recent films like “Priscilla.”
  • Modern forum and social‑media discussions often debate whether this should be viewed as a romantic story, a troubling power imbalance, or both, reflecting changing cultural norms around age and consent.
