One of the King of Rock ’n’ Roll’s ex-girlfriends will be a part of Penticton's Elvis festival next year.
Linda Thompson was Elvis Presley’s girl from 1972 to 1976. She was 15 years younger than the rock star.
And then she was married to celebrity Bruce Jenner, now Caitlyn, from 1981 to 1986.
Beyond her love interests, Thompson is also known for her career in singing and acting.
Her older brother Sam Thompson, who was Elvis’s bodyguard, will also be in Penticton for the event.
This year’s event is the 50th anniversary and is embracing “Aloha from Hawaii” as the theme. It's set to take place June 21 to 25 at the Penticton Trade & Convention Centre.
