LISA Marie Presley’s twin eight-year-old daughters have been taken into care after she found indecent images of kids on their dad’s computer, court documents claim.

The Sun reports that Finley and Harper Lockwood, the granddaughters of superstar Elvis, will be looked after by social workers until a trial in March, according to papers seen by Dailymail.com.

The shocking allegations emerged as part of her ongoing divorce from guitarist Michael Lockwood after 11 years of marriage.

Lisa Marie, 49, claimed she was left “sick to her stomach” after finding the stash of worrying pictures and videos on Lockwood’s computer, the court documents state.

In the papers she alleged Beverly Hills Police found the images during a raid on her home.

“My understanding is that Tennessee law enforcement is also conducting an investigation related to the photos and videos that I discovered,” she said, according to the documents.

“I have no idea what else may be on those devices and fear that there are more and worse images and evidence in these unanalysed devices.”

The singer and actor also claimed she has to take two nannies with her when her husband visits their children.

Lisa Marie, the only child of Elvis and his actor wife Priscilla, cited “irreconcilable differences” with her fourth husband in divorce papers filed at court in LA in June.

She has asked for full custody of the couple’s eight-year-old twin daughters, sources said.

They are understood to have split in June last year.

The couple tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in Japan in 2006 where her first husband, Danny Keough, was best man.

She had two kids with Danny — son Benjamin and daughter Riley.

Lisa Marie was also presviously married to Michael Jackson and actor Nicolas Cage.

In the papers she claimed she has been left struggling financially after losing almost all of her $US300 million ($391 million) fortune.

She claimed she has been forced to move in with her actor daughter Riley — who starred in Mad Max: Fury Road.
