Anne Helm (1961)

While he was dating Priscilla, Elvis had an affair with his "Follow That Dream" costar Anne Helm, who played his love interest in the film. At the time, Elvis denied that he was anything more than friends with the actor. Helm also kept their relationship a secret for years until after his death. "We did have a romance, it was quite wonderful," she admitted, according to Elvis Australia.

Helm said she enjoyed having Elvis "all to myself" when they were filming their movie at Crystal River in Florida. However, once filming wrapped, Helm found it "difficult" to spend quality time with the singer with so "many women around him." She also said she knew Elvis and Priscilla were rumoured to be getting married, but despite this, Helm couldn't help but continue spending time with him. "I really fell for Elvis. I mean, who wouldn't?" Helm said.
