Cher Denies Rumor Of Kidnapping Son, Elijah Blue Allman, Claims It Was An Intervention

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.

“I’m not suffering from any problem that millions of people in the United States aren’t. I’m a mother. This is my job — one way or another, to try to help my children. You do anything for your children,” Cher told People. “Whenever you can help them, you just do it because that’s what being a mother is. But it’s joy, even with heartache — mostly, when you think of your children, you just smile and you love them, and you try to be there for them.”

In the past, Allman has struggled with drug abuse. He has been in and out of recovery stints since the early 2010s.

Drug use has been a problem in his family – Allman’s father, the late rock icon Gregg Allman, famously battled drug addiction. Cher’s father has also struggled with heroin usage.

Cher, 77, has recently been spending a lot of time with her much younger boyfriend, music producer Alexander Edwards, 37.
