Cher Discusses Age Gap, Misunderstandings, and Happiness in Relationship With Younger Boyfriend Alexander 'AE' Edwards

Cher and boyfriend Alexander Edwards reconcile after brief split to continue their unique love story despite 40-year age gap, with Cher stating their mutual love for music overcomes frequent generational misunderstandings; couple collaborate on successful new Christmas album.

Cher, at 77, is happily in a relationship with music producer Alexander 'AE' Edwards, 37, despite a 40-year age gap; she shares that their mutual love for music helps them connect beyond generational differences.
Despite their age gap leading to frequent moments of misunderstanding - mostly due to generational differences in cultural references - Cher expresses that she and Edwards 'just get each other', often discussing music and everything else.
Cher and Edwards were first romantically linked when spotted holding hands in late 2022; after briefly splitting earlier this year, they rekindled their relationship and continue to enjoy each other's company.
The couple worked together on Cher's new holiday album, 'Christmas', which she initially resisted making; Cher describes the album as 'very strange', with tracks that seem disconnected but work as a whole.
There were rumors of engagement after Edwards gifted Cher a large diamond ring last Christmas; however, sources confirmed that the couple had only dated for six months and that there was no proposal.
