Cher is not shy about her love for her 37-year-old boyfriend, Alexander "AE" Edwards. The legendary singer, who is 77, opened up about their relationship in a candid interview with ‘People’ magazine.
Cher and Edwards, who is a music executive and the father of Amber Rose's son, Slash, met at a party in 2022 and hit it off right away. They have been dating for a year, despite the 40-year age gap and the jokes they often hear from others.
"Alexander's got diamond teeth, tattoos, white hair, and he's way younger. He's a beautiful man. I think it's fun to be interested in somebody else's love life!" Cher told People.
The couple recently reunited after spending some time apart due to their busy schedules. Cher said she was overjoyed to see him again and that he makes her happy.
"No matter what happens, I love being with him. He makes me laugh, and we have fun. What I learned is that it's never too late. If you wrote out all the statistics, you would go, 'Well, this is doomed.' But we've been together a year, and if it was just a year, it would've been worth it. I've had the best time. If you have happiness, you can't think about how long it's going to last. You have to think about 'How does it feel?' and live in the moment," she said.
Cher also revealed that she is working on new music and that Edwards supports her career. She said she feels lucky to have him in her life and that age is just a number.
"He's very smart. He knows a lot of things that I don't know. He teaches me things. He's interested in what I do. He came to see me in Vegas. He liked the show. He's very supportive," she said.
Cher added that she doesn't care what people think of their relationship and that she is proud of her boyfriend. "I don't give a damn what people say. He's my boyfriend, and I love him," she said.
