Cher, who is 77 years old, shared in an interview with Extra on Monday, October 23, that her relationship with boyfriend Alexander 'AE' Edwards, who is 40 years younger than her, occasionally leads to funny moments of miscommunication. Cher revealed, "Sometimes I'm talking to him and he doesn't know who I'm referring to. The other day, I mentioned Clark Gable, and he had no idea who that was. He'll often look at me and say, 'I wasn't even born yet.'"
Cher is extremely content in her relationship with the music producer, who is 37 years old. She described him as being "reserved" and "obviously more shy" compared to herself. Cher expressed that she couldn't be happier and they have an amazing time together. They enjoy discussing music and have a connection in every aspect. Additionally, she appreciates his sense of humor and adores his adorable son.
Cher's new holiday album titled "Christmas", which was released on Friday, October 20, was inspired by Edwards, despite Cher's initial resistance. According to Cher, the album is unique as each track stands on its own, seemingly unrelated, but when listened to, they work harmoniously together.
Last year, Cher and Edwards sparked romance rumors when they were seen holding hands in Los Angeles. Despite skepticism surrounding their relationship, Cher remains unconcerned and believes that she and AE share something unique and special, making her feel more alive and sexier than ever.

Cher finally addressed her relationship in the same month by sharing a photo of Edwards on X (formerly Twitter). In response to a fan's questioning of their connection, she stated, "As we all know, I was not born yesterday, and what I know for sure is that there are no guarantees. Anytime you make a choice, you take a chance. I have always been someone who takes chances, it's a part of who I am."
In December 2022, rumors started circulating about their engagement when Edwards gifted Cher a large diamond ring for Christmas. However, in May, Us confirmed that the couple had ended their relationship after dating for six months.
According to a source, their relationship ended a few weeks ago without any proposal from Edwards. However, there is no animosity between them and they remain on good terms.
Although they have split, an insider mentioned last month that Cher and Edwards are considering rekindling their romance. The source disclosed that they are not officially back together, but they are enjoying each other's company and finding happiness in being together again.
Weeks later, Cher and Edwards made a highly anticipated appearance together at the Balmain show during Paris Fashion Week on September 27. Captured in photos, the couple appeared affectionate as they cozied up, their arms intertwined around each other.
