The Daisy Jones & the Six actress and her husband Ben Smith-Petersen were in Paris for fashion week
Riley Keough may keep her family life, including her husband Ben Smith-Petersen, largely out of the public eye, but he is always behind-the-scenes supporting her.
It is a busy, and bittersweet, time for the Daisy Jones & the Six actress, who is gearing up for the release of her late mother Lisa Marie Presley’s posthumous memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown, which she helped finish.
Amid her press tour for the memoir, which is out October 8, the Presley family heir made a pitstop in Paris for fashion week, and following her performance at the Chanel runway show, she shared a rare photo of her husband cheering her on.
Following her appearance at the Chanel show, for which he sang while floating through the famed Grand Palais on a swing hanging from the ceiling, Riley took to Instagram and shared a round of behind-the-scenes photos.
The last of them saw her cozying up to her husband alongside friends prior to the show, wearing a classic Chanel tweed jacket with jeans, while Ben sported a white t-shirt with black trousers.
Some of the other photos and clips saw her practicing her performance, for which she wore black trousers and a bustier-style buttoned strapless top with a lengthy tulle cape.

“Your mom would be so proud of you. Such a beautiful voice and soul! Go Riley!!” one wrote, as others followed suit with: “You took my breath away! Perfect! Love your voice!!!” and: “Congrats for your awesome performance, you sing beautifully, and I’m waiting for your solo album,” as well as: “So beautiful Riley.”

They tied the knot in 2015, and share a daughter, Tupelo, who they welcomed via surrogacy in late 2022.

© GettyKelly then asked whether Ben had any sort of “specialty” such as jumping off buildings or the like, and Riley revealed “literally that” is exactly what his specialty is. “He literally does like air stuff and water stuff, and he kind of does everything.”
“He does fighting [too],” she added, though she did say he doesn’t “do cars or motorcycles,” noting: “He has his limits.”
