Priscilla Presley is on the cover with Lisa Marie and Riley (6-page-coverstory), plus Scream VI, Gloria Gaynor, Lucy Liu and Michael B. Jordan with great articles.To Charlene's article: It's mostly personal, mentioning that she used her $15,000-per-week Dallas paycheck to try to help her mother.  It is said that after Tilton left Dallas in 1990, “there was a lot of stress. I wasn’t working, and I wasn’t taking care of myself.“ Instead, she cared for her daughter and her mom, who later moved into a live-in facility, but the cost drained Tilton’s savings. “My house was foreclosed. I left everything except what we could fit in a one-bedroom house.” At the end of the article it is reported: Now Tilton - who appeared on some 500 magazine covers at the height of her TV fame - splits her time between her grandsons and acting, mostly in TV movies or for faith-based streaming services. “When I was on Dallas and doing bathing suit magazine covers, I couldn't wait to get older," she says. “I always saw myself as a character actress. I'm petite and curvy, not tall and thin. I'm not elegant, I'm spunky. What I love about the age I am now is it brings different characters."</blockquote>
