Cher reveals brutal reason why she would never date older men

Cher reveals brutal reason why she would never date older men

She's been dating her boyfriend Alexander Edwards, who is 40 years younger than her, since 2022

Cher loves to give us iconic one-liners, doesn't she? I mean, who could ever forget 'Mom, I am a rich man'?

Nobody, that's who.

Well, now there's another one to add to the repertoire.

The 77-year-old 'Believe' singer has made countless headlines throughout the years for her string of relationships, including her current beau.

Cher is dating 38-year-old music executive Alexander 'AE' Edwards, who is almost 40 years her junior.

Their relationship has been public since 2022, and Cher previously opened up on their romance, saying: "No matter what happens, I love being with him. He makes me laugh, and we have fun," she said. "What I learned is that it’s never too late."

So cute!

She also gushed to Amelia Dimoldenberg about their dynamic during an episode of Chicken Shop Date.

She said: "I told my friends, don’t fall in love with a younger man, we’re too old. And don’t fall in love by text.

"There goes that theory."

The story goes that Cher and Alexander got together after they met at Paris Fashion Week, and a mutual friend passed on her number to him.

But Cher is no stranger to age-gap love.

She has previously dated Val Kilmer (13 years her junior), Tom Cruise (16 years her junior), and Rob Camilletti (18 years her junior).

So, for those wondering why Cher rarely enters the world of same-age dating, then today is your lucky day.

Cher opened up in a recent interview with Jennifer Hudson about her love life.

The two artists got together for an episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show yesterday (1 May).

Cher said: "The reason I got with young men is because men my age are older — well now they’re all dead — but before, they were always terrified to approach me. And younger men — they were raised by women like me."

Yep, you heard her right - Cher doesn't date older men as 'they're all dead'.

Iconic really, if a little morbid.

And people on social media have been gushing about Cher's directness.

One person wrote: "Cher's just living her best life, age is just a number anyway."

Another added: "Cher is the funniest person on earth."

While a third chimed: "Iconic words from an actual icon."

We can't wait to see what she comes out with next.
