King of Pop Michael Jackson�s death has shocked the world, particularly those who were very close to him. His ex-wife Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of the late King of Rock �n� Roll issued a statement today.

�I am so very sad and confused with every emotion possible. I am heartbroken for his children who I know were everything to him and for his family. This is such a massive loss on so many levels, words fail me," Presley said in a statement.

The daughter of fellow music legend Elvis Presley, Lisa Marie and Michael were married in May 1994 to a firestorm of publicity.

Priscilla Presley, Michael Jackson�s ex mother-in-law described his passing as �a tragic loss.� Close friend Elizabeth Taylor�s rep said that she was too devastated for any comment.

After almost two years wed, with speculation regarding the legitimacy and intimacy of their relationship, Presley filed for divorce in January 1996.

Presley is currently married to musician Michael Lockwood with two fraternal twins, and daughter Riley Keough from a previous marriage.

Jackson is survived by his three children: Prince Michael Jackson I, Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.
