It's been said that Elvis had an aversion to having sex with women who had had children. Priscilla claims in her book that Elvis had told her this even before they got married.
He had his share of affairs, and Priscilla has admitted to two of her own.
They spent alot of time apart, so Priscilla ended up seeking other interests like dance & karate etc. She made an new circle of friends and a life of her own outside of Graceland.
There's a very good line in Elvis & Me (not sure if he actually said this in real life or not) which explains the relationship.
"I never knew the woman... only the girl."
********************************
I don't know if Elvis would still be alive if Priscilla had taken him back. Personally, I don't think it would have made a difference. Elvis wasn't willing to change his lifestyle for anyone, and it should have been obvious that the lifestyle he led (drug use, bad diet & his other health problems) would not end happily.
