American singer Cherilyn “Cher” Sarkisian and her music executive boyfriend, Alexander “AE” Edwards, have ended their relationship after dating for over six months.
Source News
An insider close to the stars disclosed to TMZ that the 76-year-old singer and her 37-year-old beau ended their relationship “a couple weeks ago.”
Who Ended It?
The source didn’t state who ended the relationship or why the split happened, but some other juicy details about their prior engagement were disclosed.
The Engagement Ring Saga
In December, news of a possible engagement between the pair rocked the internet after Cher received a diamond ring worth $250,000 from her lover, AE.
Cher Wishes Her Mom Could See The Ring
At the time, the Strong Enough singer tweeted that she wished she could show her late mother, Georgia Holt, the ring — she loved diamond rings.
Her Tweet
In her tweet about being unable to show her mom the diamond ring, she wrote, “Woke up Min ago,& 1st thing …B4 I Opened my eyes,I Thought…I Need 2 Run To Moms & Show Her my ring…” she Loves Diamonds.” Before I realized it..I Had Little Tear,But Im sure this is natural.”
Pseudo Engagement
Sadly, TMZ’s source also revealed the supposed November engagement between Cher and AE never happened, and the duo only decided to “play into the speculation.”

Remember … back in January, the “Goddess of Pop” told Paps she and her lover were engaged. Now the truth is out— it was all fabricated!

Speaking with TMZ last month, AE told the outlet he was already bonding with Cher’s sons Elijah Blue Allman and Chaz Bono—that’s a wrap now.
