Lisa Marie had a particularly close bond with her son. For Mother's Day in 2009, they even got matching tattoos. Speaking to fans about it on Twitter in May 2012, she described it as "a Celtic eternity knot" that represents "eternal love and connection".
One of Lisa Marie's rare social media posts, shared in June 2019, showed her with all four of her children, including Benjamin. She wrote: "Mama Lion with cubs."
