Despite Priscilla Presley's massive fame, she and Marco Garibaldi lived an incredibly private life together. The couple took care of their son, Navarone Garcia, and they both worked. Priscilla was partially responsible for overseeing Elvis Presley's estate, and she acted in multiple projects, like "The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad," its sequels, and "Melrose Place," before taking a hiatus for more than 10 years, starting in 1999. Garibaldi was involved in the entertainment industry, too, directing three episodes of the TV series "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" in 1995. In a 2003 interview on CNN with Larry King, Priscilla said of Garibaldi, "He doesn't — you know, he lets me do what I need to do. You know, basically, in anything. But he's very supportive, 100%. And I think in a relationship, one needs that."

Aside from that interview, Priscilla did not speak about Garibaldi much in public, and Garibaldi kept a low profile, too. The director seemingly cared about his privacy, and Priscilla had always valued privacy since she was with Elvis, as he valued it, too. Elvis was so concerned with privacy that to maintain it, he had a privacy wall with one-way mirrors installed at Graceland. Priscilla has also noted that her respect for Elvis' privacy is one reason he fell in love with her. "He just was actually stunned that I didn't reveal [their relationship]," Priscilla told The Hollywood Reporter.
