Keough is now a mom herself to 2-year-old daughter Tupelo. She revealed she had welcomed a daughter with her husband, stuntman Ben Smith-Petersen, during Lisa Marie’s memorial service at Graceland in Memphis, Tenn., in January 2023.
In September, Keough told PEOPLE that she has adopted her late mother’s Southern parenting style with her little girl.
“I think that I always say it’s this southern style of parenting, but it’s actually very specifically my family,” said Keough. “I think it is from the south, but whatever way she was parented was how I was parented in a sense. And I also now sort of parent that way.”
“It’s really loving and tactile and smothering — no boundaries,” she added.
