Cher Says She’s Living ‘in the Moment’ with Boyfriend: ‘It’s Never Too Late’ to Find Love

In a world that often preaches the impracticality of love across generations, iconic singer Cher, 77, is breaking the mold. She recently opened up about her flourishing romance with 37-year-old music executive Alexander “AE” Edwards, demonstrating that love knows no age limit.

Their story began in the City of Love, Paris, at a Paris Fashion Week event. Cher recalls meeting Edwards briefly for about 15 minutes. Little did she know, this brief encounter would lead to a meaningful connection. A mutual friend, breaking the usual norms of privacy, handed Edwards her phone number. “It was really shocking because people just don’t give out my number,” Cher shared.

Cher humorously admitted to initially resisting the idea of a younger beau. “I had been telling all my friends, ‘We’re too old to go out with really younger men, and I will never fall in love on text.’ So I did what I said not to do!” she said. However, the pop legend found herself enamored with Edwards, who she describes as “special.”

Edwards stands out with his unique style—diamond teeth, tattoos, and white hair. Despite their age difference, Cher sees beyond the surface. “Alexander is a handsome man,” she remarked. “Also, I think it’s interesting to be interested in other people’s love lives!”

Cher candidly spoke about the joy and fulfillment she experiences with Edwards. “He makes me laugh, and we have fun. What I learned is that it’s never too late,” she expressed. Their relationship has defied the odds, having lasted a year despite initial skepticism. “If you wrote out all the statistics, you would go, ‘Well, this is doomed.’ But we’ve been together a year, and if it was just a year, it would’ve been worth it. I’ve had the best time.”

Cher’s story is a testament to the timeless nature of love. It serves as a reminder that connections can form at any stage of life, and sometimes, breaking your own rules can lead to unexpected happiness. As she continues to live “in the moment,” Cher’s romance with Edwards offers a refreshing perspective on finding love later in life.
