At 77, Cher, the Goddess of Pop, has opened up about her relationship with 37-year-old music producer Alexander “A.E.” Edwards, offering a candid glimpse into their unconventional romance.

In a recent interview for an episode of "Chicken Shop Date," Cher shared insights into her whirlwind romance, breaking her own dating rules, and navigating a relationship with a significant age gap.

Cher's relationship with Edwards, who is 40 years her junior, defies conventional norms. Despite her initial reservations, Cher admitted she didn't "fall in love very quickly" with Edwards but eventually broke her own rule of not dating younger men. This decision came from her realization that "older men just do not like me," leading her to explore a relationship with a younger partner. Cher and Edwards, who have been dating since November 2022, met a few months prior at Paris Fashion Week.

The couple's age difference has brought both challenges and joys. Cher humorously recounted instances where Edwards was unfamiliar with cultural references from her past, highlighting the generational gap between them. "Sometimes I'm talking to him, and he has no idea who I'm talking about… He'll look at me and go, 'I wasn't born yet,'" Cher said. Despite these differences, Cher is head over heels for Edwards, finding common ground in their love for music, humor, and shared values.

Cher and Edwards briefly parted ways in the spring but reunited a few months later. A source close to Cher revealed, "She really likes him." The couple's brief separation and subsequent reconciliation demonstrate the depth of their connection and Cher's willingness to defy societal expectations for the sake of personal happiness.

In a separate interview on "Today," Cher reflected on aging, particularly in light of the 25th anniversary of her song "Believe." She candidly expressed her frustration with getting older, wishing she could return to her 70s. "It's not that amazing. It pisses the f--- out of me," Cher told Harry Smith, revealing her complex relationship with aging.

Cher's relationship with Alexander Edwards is a testament to her fearless approach to life and love. By choosing happiness over societal norms, Cher continues to inspire and challenge perceptions about age, relationships, and personal fulfillment. As she navigates this chapter of her life, Cher remains a symbol of strength, independence, and the enduring power of love.
