Cher Defies Critics, Plans Wedding at 80 with 39‑Year‑Old Amber Rose’s Ex, Alexander Edwards

In the USA

The news as it trends.

Singer Cher, approaching her 80th birthday, says she “doesn’t give a hoot” about criticism surrounding her plan to marry 39‑year‑old music executive Alexander Edwards.

Social media erupted with harsh words, with some critics labeling Edwards as “grandson‑like” due to the couple’s 40‑year age gap. Cher, however, remains unfazed, insisting that happiness matters more than public opinion.

Edwards himself has confirmed he will move forward with the marriage, dismissing the backlash and pledging his commitment.

The pair, who began dating in 2022, have faced scrutiny but continue to show resilience.

Rumors suggest Cher is planning to walk down the aisle at her next birthday in May 2026, when she turns 80, with Edwards – who is the father of a 6‑year‑old son named Slash, whom he shares with Amber Rose.

Cher, on the other hand, is the mother of two adult sons: Chaz Bono (56), whom she had with Sonny Bono, and Elijah Blue Allman (49), whom she had with Gregg Allman.

Cher’s six decades of success in music, film, and television have earned her an estimated net worth of around $400 million, while Alexander Edwards’ career as a music executive and producer is valued at approximately $3 million.

As Cher prepares to celebrate her milestone birthday, she is determined to walk down the aisle, proving that love knows no boundaries of age or judgment.
