Lisa Marie Presley’s estranged husband has been reunited with twin daughters, Finely and Harper.
In these exclusive pictures, Michael Lockwood, 55, who separated from Lisa Marie last June after a decade of marriage, can be seen packing up his SUV after a day at the beach with his 8-year-old daughters and a couple of their friends.
Their outing occurred just one week after DailyMail.com reported Lisa Marie's revelation that child services had swooped to remove the girls from either parent’s care, amid shocking allegations that she found hundreds of distressing photographs and videos of children on his computer.

Wearing a trademark hat over his long blond hair, his eyes covered by shades, Lockwood can be seen smiling and carrying a Frisbee, multicolored beach ball and a drink, as the group prepares leave Malibu.
At one point he bends to kiss one of his daughters in what appeared to be a relaxed family outing.
But the presence of a social worker, constantly monitoring Lockwood’s interactions with his own children, reveals the tense reality behind the father/daughter reunion that follows a sensational turn in Lockwood and Lisa Marie’s divorce.
Because last week legal documents obtained by DailyMail.com laid bare the bombshell allegations leveled by Lisa Marie, 49, that saw both parents lose custody of their daughters.
Lisa Marie claimed to have found a stash of disturbing photos and videos involving children on Lockwood’s computer and cell phone that left her ‘sick to her stomach.’ The papers also revealed pending allegations of sexual abuse and neglect on the part of Lockwood and Lisa Marie’s belief that he is an ‘unsafe father.’
She stated that cops in both California and Tennessee had seized 80 of his devices and were still going through them to find out exactly what was on them. Lisa Marie admitted, ‘I have no idea what else might be on those devices,’ but stated that she feared there are ‘more and worse images and evidence’ in the so far unanalyzed devices.
But Lockwood hit back hard at his estranged wife. He branded her ‘vindictive’ and described himself as ‘disgusted’ by her ‘unproven allegations.’ Claiming that Lisa Marie had broken court rules by filing her declaration in the court’s publicly accessible records he accused her of being out to ‘destroy’ his reputation.

He claimed that during their 10-year-marriage Lisa Marie had ‘great difficulty being honest and rarely, if ever, accepts personal responsibility for her wrongdoing.’
He went onto hint that he had allegations of his own to level against Lisa Marie but stopped short of airing them, saying only that the allegations against both of them ‘have not been proven.’
Meanwhile his lawyer, Jeff Sturman, said that Lisa Marie’s attorney, Mark Gross, called is office with a ‘threat’ to go public unless Lockwood abandoned his bid to get $40,000 a month in spousal support and $100,000 towards his legal fees from The King’s daughter.
As it turned out Lockwood might just as well have abandoned it as, yesterday DailyMail.com reported that Lockwood lost his court bid to claim the $40,000 monthly stipend or a $100,000 lump sum. The musician, who has worked with Fiona Apple and Aimee Mann among others, claimed that Presley inherited ‘tens of millions’ from Elvis.
But Lisa Marie left the Los Angeles court smiling after the judge denied Lockwood’s demand although he did grant him $10,000 a month in attorney fees pending what seems destined to be lengthy divorce proceedings with Lockwood claiming that Lisa Marie is concealing a vast fortune by pretending to be broke while he lives ‘a below the poverty line existence.’
At one time she was said to be worth $300million. Lockwood insists that she still receives $466,000 a month - $5.6million a year - from the trust Elvis set up for her before his death in 1977.
In papers filed on Valentine’s Day he said her tax returns showed that from 2013-2015 she also got more than $4.5million a year in dividends and capital gains and that she receives far in excess of the $100,000 a month that she claims.
He said that in the same three-year period he earned an average of just $55,017 - ‘less than on percent’ of her income.
For the time being Elvis Presley’s granddaughters are in the care of their grandmother, Priscilla, 71, with California’s Department of Children and Family Services constantly monitoring their wellbeing. Both parents are allowed supervised visitation.
