At 77, Cher, the iconic songstress, continues to captivate audiences with her talent and vibrant personality. During an appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Cher opened up about a missed opportunity in her romantic history – a proposed date with none other than Elvis Presley. Despite the allure of being with one of the biggest music stars of all time, Cher confessed that nerves got the best of her. She mentioned, “It was because I was nervous and I knew of the people around him and it wasn’t that they were bad people, it’s just that I was kind of nervous of his reputation.”
Currently, Cher finds happiness in her relationship with 38-year-old record executive, Alexander ‘AE’ Edwards. With a touch of humor, Cher explained her preference for dating younger men, attributing it to a generational shift in attitudes towards strong, independent women. She stated, “I would rather date men from later generations, who ‘were raised by women like me’ and were therefore never scared of me.” Cher playfully added, “And the reason I got with young men is because men my age or older – well, now they’re all dead. But before they just never, they were always terrified to approach me.”
Throughout her life, Cher has had a number of high-profile relationships, including a significant romance with Rob Camilletti, also known as the ‘Bagel Boy’. Cher met him when she was 40 and he was 22, and he accompanied her to the Oscars in 1988, where she won Best Actress for her role in Moonstruck. Cher’s current relationship with Alexander ‘AE’ Edwards has had its share of challenges, with a reported split in May 2023 before reconciling later that same year.
Cher has not been shy about expressing her admiration for Alexander ‘AE’ Edwards. She has praised his kindness, intelligence, and sense of humor, stating, “He’s kind, smart, hilarious… & we kiss like teenagers.” Despite initial concerns from fans about his past infidelity, Cher confidently addressed these worries, showcasing her unwavering self-assurance and wisdom in matters of the heart. Cher’s relationship with Alexander has been a source of joy for her, and she has shared glimpses of their intimate connection with her followers.
Cher’s journey through love and relationships has been filled with ups and downs, but her candid and spirited approach to life has always shone through. From a missed opportunity with Elvis Presley to a fulfilling romance with Alexander ‘AE’ Edwards, Cher continues to captivate audiences with her enduring talent and vibrant personality.
