Cher, 76, fuels speculation she is engaged to boyfriend, 36, with diamond ring photo | Ents & Arts News
Cher sparked rumors she was engaged to her 36-year-old boyfriend after posting a picture of her diamond ring on Christmas Day.
The 76-year-old confirmed her romance with music executive Alexander Edwards in November, on Twitter a photo of him accompanied by a red heart emoji.
But now it looks like they can go one step further.
Cher tweeted an image of the sparkling ring on December 25, along with the words: “NO WORD, ALEXANDER, AE”
While congratulations poured in, some of her fans didn’t quite understand the meaning behind the photo.
One replied: “Wait, wait, hold uppp!! Is that a diamond ring or a diamond engagement ring???? What is it?????????”
Several other fans were skeptical of the romance, with one telling the star in early December: “I immediately have doubts about his intentions towards you.”
But Cher responded, saying, “As we all know…I HAVE NOT BEEN BIRTHDAY, & What I know for sure…There are no guarantees. Whenever you make a choice, you will take the chance.I always take the chance…Who am I.”
Edwards is the ex-partner of model and TV star Amber Rose, with whom he shares a three-year-old son, Slash Electric Alexander Edwards.
Rose accused her ex-partner of cheating several times during their relationship.
As for Cher, the goddess of Pop has been married twice before.
Her first husband, Sonny Bono – with whom she had a son, Chaz, 53 – died in 1998. The couple separated in 1974.
A few days after completing the divorce proceedings, in 1975, she married second husband Gregg Allman. Their son, Elijah Blue Allman, 46, was born a year later but they divorced in 1978.
It has been a difficult few weeks for the singer, as her mother, Georgia Holt died in early December.
