King of Rock and Roll Elvis Presley reportedly spent the last five years of his life in misery trying to evade the paparazzi and hordes of fans who hounded him every where he went, revealed his ex-girlfriend.

Former beauty queen Linda Thompson who dated Elvis said that her life with Elvis was like that of two vampires. "We literally were awake all night and slept all day. The world was turned around for him because he wasn't free to go out among society," ratethemusic.com quoted Thompson, as saying.

Thompson, who is now married to songwriter David Foster, admitted that there were some terrifying times for the couple, when the paparazzi attacked them.

"They jumped on the car they were throwing themselves on the windshield. It really wasn't safe for him to go out. In the five years I was with him we went to dinner one time and we sat there with guards around us and people ogling and watching every bite," she added.
