Today marks 46 years since Elvis Presley's tragic passing, aged 43. The King of Rock and Roll's sudden death rocked many fans, however, his family always remained tight-lipped on the results of his autopsy.
The Mississippi singer was discovered face down on the bathroom floor of his Graceland home, where he appeared to have fallen from the toilet close by, with his pyjama bottoms around his ankles.
In the years leading to his sudden death, his health had taken a dramatic hit, after years of drug abuse catching up with him combined with a bad diet, writes The Mirror.Elvis went on to tip the scales at 25 stone after he spent months barricaded in his bedroom eating junk food and his condition got so bad that he was in need of a full-time nurse, and as he reportedly refused to bathe throughout 1975, developed sores across his body.Due to his high-fat, unhealthy diet, the Jailhouse Rock singer suffered from chronic constipation and a post-mortem examination found he had a four-month-old compacted stool sitting in his bowel.
The singer was also on a cocktail of drugs and had been prescribed almost 9,000 pills, vials and injections in the seven months before his death.He was discovered on the floor with his pyjama bottoms around his ankles and his bottom in the air by his girlfriend, Ginger Alden.
