According to TMZ, Keough died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, reports deadline.com. Lisa Marie's representative Roger Widynowski released a statement about the demise.

"She is completely heartbroken, inconsolable and beyond devastated but trying to stay strong for her 11-year-old twins and her oldest daughter Riley. She adored that boy. He was the love of her life," said Marie's representative. Keough's sister is actress Riley Keough and his father is musician Danny Keough, who Lisa Marie divorced in 1994.
