Personal life
Personal life
Lockwood married Lisa Marie Presley on January 22, 2006. On October 7, 2008, Presley gave birth to twin girls. In June 2016, Presley filed for divorce from Lockwood after ten years of marriage. In February 2017, the couple's children were taken into protective custody after Presley stated that she witnessed inappropriate images of children on Lockwood's personal computer in a divorce court filing challenging Lockwood's request for spousal support. Her court filing stated 80 of Lockwood's electronic devices were retrieved to be searched by law enforcement, and West Hollywood Police confirmed a search warrant had been executed related to the family. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation also mounted an informal investigation but later announced it had found no evidence of a crime occurring in the state. The divorce was finalized on May 26, 2021. Lockwood married Stephanie Hobgood on October 10, 2022. Hobgood is a Phoenix-born hairstylist whose clients include Kendall and Kylie Jenner.
