Cher’s Family Expresses Concern Over Romance with Alexander Edwards: ‘Red Flags’

Cher’s family is reportedly uneasy about her relationship with 38-year-old music executive Alexander “A.E.” Edwards. According to Daily Mail, the 78-year-old singer’s relatives, including her son Chaz Bono, are worried about Edwards’ intentions, citing “red flags” in their two-year romance.

Tensions within the family reportedly heightened after Cher announced a collaboration with Edwards on her new and final album. The decision has granted Edwards significant creative control over the project and substantial financial benefits, raising eyebrows among her loved ones.

A source close to the family revealed, “Cher’s family has given up on trying to convince her that Alexander does not have her best interests in mind.” While the Believe singer has defended Edwards, asserting that he’s “not after her money,” the source noted that Edwards is now “getting paid an enormous amount of money for this new album,” with Cher giving him extensive creative control.

Adding to the concerns, the After All hitmaker is reportedly “contemplating revising her will to include him.” While no changes have been made yet, the source stated that Cher is “strongly considering it because she claims he is the love of her life.”

Cher and Edwards have been public about their relationship, frequently attending events together. Their most recent appearance was in October 2024, when they attended the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Despite their outward displays of affection, her family remains skeptical about Edwards’ true intentions.

The insider emphasized that Cher’s family only wants what’s best for her, but the singer has been steadfast in her belief that Edwards has genuine feelings for her. “She’s deeply in love and insists that he’s not motivated by her wealth,” the source added.

As Cher continues to work on her final album with Edwards, the family’s concerns highlight the delicate balance between personal relationships and protecting a legacy. For now, the Goddess of Pop seems determined to follow her heart, even as her family remains watchful of her best interests.
