Singer Cher is speaking candidly about her relationship with music executive Alexander “AE” Edwards, offering a fresh look at a romance that has drawn attention since it began in late 2022. The pair have a 40-year age gap, but Cher made clear that the difference does not define their connection. Instead, she described a relationship built on fun, affection and ease. During a recent television interview, the music icon framed their bond in simple terms: they enjoy being together, and that sense of comfort appears to be the foundation.

Cher’s recent remarks also line up with comments she made in 2024 on “The Jennifer Hudson Show,” where she discussed why younger men have often been part of her dating life. She said she is shy when she is not working and has long felt that men her age were often too intimidated to approach her. Younger men, by contrast, were more likely to make that first move. Taken together, her comments paint a clear picture: confidence, humor and openness matter more to her than age, and that outlook still shapes her personal life.
