On Wednesday, January 14, Riley was the guest on Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy podcast, and revealed she was arrested when she was about 15 or 16 years old.

Asked by the host what similarities she found with her mom when it came to both of their teenage years — Lisa Marie's having been notoriously rebellious — she said: "She had her rebellious moment and I also had that where I would sneak out and, hang out with people I wasn't allowed to, and getting arrested."

"I've never said that," she quipped, noting she was a minor, and that she never got to see her mugshot.

Riley then revealed it was for breaking and entering, explaining: "So it was actually, I went to a party at my friend's house but I didn't know that it wasn't my friend's house, it was a house for sale."

She further explained: "She seemed to like the feeling of not being normal, she wanted to be different," though maintained: "She had a good head on her shoulders, Lisa was not stupid, she was very smart."
