A judge denied Cher’s request for an emergency temporary conservatorship over her son Elijah Blue Allman on Friday after Allman appeared in a Los Angeles courtroom to oppose the move. The judge found Allman deserved more time to review his mom’s claims his life is at risk due to “severe mental health and substance abuse issues.” A follow-up hearing was set for Jan. 29.
Before the ruling was final, Cher’s lawyer argued in court that an expedited order was urgently needed “for the protection of Mr. Allman.” The...

Cher has filed for a conservatorship for her son Elijah Blue Allman’s finances, believing that he is currently unable to manage his assets due to his mental health and substance abuse issues.
Court documents claim that a conservator is “urgently needed… to protect Elijah’s property from loss or injury.”
Cher is worried that Allman will spend her trust on drugs and that his wife, Marieangela King, won’t make a reliable conservator.
King has accused Cher of attempting to kidnap Allman, a claim that she has since denied.
“I’m not suffering from any problem that millions of people in the United States aren’t,” Cher said of the accusations. “I’m a mother. This is my job – one way or another, to try to help my children. You do anything for your children. Whenever you can help them, you just do it because that’s what being a mother is.

Cher is asking a Los Angeles judge to make her conservator of her son’s estate, saying that Elijah Blue Allman is not currently capable of managing his own finances.
Allman is the son of late musician Gregg Allman, who died in 2017, and receives distributions from the G.A. Robbins Descendants Revocable Trust. According to a petition filed Tuesday, a temporary conservator is urgently needed because there are assets that must be distributed by Dec. 31 and he is “currently unable to manage his assets due to severe mental health and substance abuse issues.”
Conservatorship of an estate involves oversight of only financial and/or business matters — unlike a conservatorship of the person, which would also implicate medical and other personal decisions. It would be easy to conflate the two since the high-profile legal fight to end Britney Spears’ conservatorship involved both, but the petitions filed this week only relate to...

Cher is ready to pack her bags if a certain former president finds his way back into the Oval Office. In a broad-ranging interview with the Guardian, the singer was asked how she felt about Donald Trump being potentially re-elected.
“I almost got an ulcer the last time,” Cher replied. “If he gets in, who knows? This time I will leave [the country].”
She also discussed the issue of trans rights, reflecting on the ongoing pushback from the right and the constant laws being passed against trans people in the U.S.

Cher has denied allegations by her daughter-in-law, Marie Angela King, who accused her of hiring four men to abduct her son during their wedding anniversary.
The allegation first surfaced in divorce filings between Elijah Blue Allman, Cher’s son, and King.
King claimed she and Allman spent 12 days in New York alone in a hotel room together to fix their crumbling marriage. She alleged that during this trip, Allman was forcibly taken from the hotel room.
King said that she didn’t know her husband’s whereabouts and was very concerned about him. She recalled that at least one of the four men confirmed that they were hired by Cher and was told that she was not allowed to speak to her husband while he was getting drug treatment.
Cher said in a new interview that the rumors were not true and the incident was related to her son’s drug addiction.

Cher has denied hiring four men to abduct her own adult son to keep him from reconciling with his then-estranged wife, telling People, “That rumor is not true.”
The accusation emerged last month in newly surfaced divorce documents regarding Elijah Blue Allman — Cher’s son with Gregg Allman — and his wife, Marie Angela King. According to the documents, the couple filed for divorce in 2021, but in Nov. 2022, they allegedly reconnected for 12 days. It was during this period, on Nov. 30 — their wedding anniversary — that four men allegedly entered their New York hotel room and abducted Allman.

On November 20, 2022, Cher, 77, allegedly hired a team to abduct her 47-year-old son, Elijah Blue Allman, while he was celebrating his wedding anniversary with his wife, Marie Angela King, according to a newly released court filing by King.
Despite hitting a rough patch and filing for divorce in 2021, the couple decided to give it one more try and reconnected in the days leading up to their anniversary back in 2022. King said the two were committed to working on their marriage and spent time alone, reconnecting in New York before the alleged abduction occurred.
On December 5, 2022, King filed court documents accusing Cher of kidnapping her son after about four days of not knowing where he was.
In the report, King claimed that four men barged into their hotel room and took Allman away, with one saying that Cher was the one who hired them.
Since then, King has yet to see her husband.
