Legendary singer Cher and her 39-year-old boyfriend, Alexander ‘A.E.’ Edwards, are proving their relationship is stronger than ever as they’ve recently taken a significant step in their relationship.
In an exclusive interview with In Touch Weekly magazine, published on February 12, 2025, an insider close to the If I Could Turn Back Time singer opened up about her romance with the music executive, shedding light on a bond unlike any Cher has experienced before.
According to the source, Cher’s approach to love has evolved dramatically since meeting Alexander. While she has kept men at arm’s length in the past, A.E. has shifted her perspective on relationships entirely. The insider revealed,
“For many years now she’s kept men more at a distance… But things are going really well right now between them and have been for a while. He’s actually been a wonderful support through some very tough times. He’s really stepped up and proven he’s someone she can count on”.
As their relationship continues to thrive, the songstress has taken a major step forward by having Alexander move into her Malibu mansion. The insider added,
“It’s huge for her, because by letting him move in [with her] says a lot about how happy he’s making her, She wants to show him [her commitment] by taking this next big step”.
Cher’s Growing Bond With Alexander Edwards’ Son
The Believe singer has had a complicated relationship with her own children—Elijah Blue, from her marriage to the late rocker Greg Allman, and Chaz Bono, her child with the late Sonny Bono.
Amid her flourishing romance with Edwards, Cher has found a new source of joy, spending time with A.E.’s young son, Slash. The source revealed,
“She also adores having his son Slash around, she always says what a cute kid he is. Playing with him is very fun for Cher, she’s naturally very maternal, she loves it”.
While Cher has embraced her role as a fun and loving figure in Slash’s life, the insider clarified that she’s not looking to become a traditional stepmom. They explained,
“She isn’t trying to play stepmom to Slash. She’s very clear that she’s not interested in that role, she’s more interested in being like a fun fairy godmother. His wish is basically her command. She’s having the best time with him”.
Cher and Alexander ‘A.E.’ Edwards first crossed paths in 2022 during Paris Fashion Week, sparking a connection that quickly blossomed into a romance. However, the pair briefly parted ways in 2023 after a year of dating.
By early 2024, they had reconciled and since then, Cher and A.E. have been inseparable, building a thriving relationship.
From rekindled love to sharing a home, Cher and Alexander ‘A.E.’ Edwards are proving age is just a number in their flourishing relationship. With her trademark boldness, Cher is embracing love, family, and this exciting new chapter in her life.
