Despite personal challenges, Cher’s romantic life with Alexander remains a source of happiness and support. Cher said, “If you have happiness, you can’t think about how long it’s going to last. You have to think about ‘How does it feel?’ and live in the moment.”

As reported in January 2024, Cher has spent much of her life pushing the boundaries of what society considers acceptable. Cher has often done things her way, from outfits to songs and opinions. This behavior also extended to her relationships.
Cher posted a photo on X of her straddling Alexander as she tipped his chin up so he could look at her. She captioned the post, “Love is Love.” However, some fans didn’t see it that way.
Her most recent relationship with rapper Alexander Edwards has sent tongues wagging because of the significant age gap. Cher’s most recent post with Alexander has confused fans even further.

Before Alexander entered her life, Cher had experienced several high-profile relationships. Alongside her marriages to Gregg Allman and Sonny Bono, Cher also had a connection with actor Tom Cruise in the mid-1980s.
Cher and Tom, who was a young actor at the time, first met at Madonna’s wedding in 1985. In later years, Cher fondly recalled Tom as one of her “top-five” lovers, describing him as a wonderful but shy young man who didn’t have much money.
