According to an exclusive source, Cher has been spending more time alone in her Malibu mansion, dealing with the aftermath of her son Elijah Blue Allman’s recent legal drama. Although the situation with her son has settled, the emotional toll has left her feeling tired, edgy, and highly demanding. “She’s been questioning A.E.’s every move, and it’s driving him crazy,” the insider shared. “To him, it feels like paranoia, and he’s grumbling that she’s not giving him any room to breathe.”
A.E., who’s 38, has reportedly found Cher’s behavior overbearing, while Cher, 78, is said to be doubting if he’s really the person she once thought he was. “She’s feeling insecure and needy, and he’s pulling away. People close to them are starting to whisper that the relationship is fizzling out. Many believe they were never a well-matched couple for the long haul, even though she tries to silence the rumors by dragging him out for appearances.”
Despite these tensions, Cher's rep has denied the rumors, calling them “very not true.”
Cher and A.E. first crossed paths in October 2022 during Paris Fashion Week, and soon after, they made their relationship public. By March 2023, the couple had their first red carpet appearance together at a Versace show in Los Angeles. However, just a couple of months later, in May, they briefly called it quits after six months of dating. Despite this, the pair rekindled their romance by September.
Throughout their relationship, Cher and A.E. have faced scrutiny over their 40-year age gap. Still, Cher hasn’t been shy about poking fun at it. In a lighthearted moment, she shared that their age difference sometimes creates misunderstandings. “I’ll mention someone like Clark Gable, and he’ll have no idea who I’m talking about,” she joked in an interview.
Even with these hurdles, Cher emphasized that they enjoy each other’s company. “We talk about music, we can talk about anything, and he’s got a great sense of humor,” she said. “We just get each other.” Whether these issues will cause a permanent rift between them remains to be seen, but for now, the legendary singer and her beau continue to ride the ups and downs of their unique relationship.
