Cher’s son, Elijah Blue Allman, has caught fans’ attention with his strong resemblance to his good-looking father, Gregg Allman.
Fans have praises Elijah’s transformation and “sexy” appearance.
Despite a bitter rift with his mother, Elijah is working towards reconciliation.
Cher, the iconic singer, has long been admired for her talent and stunning looks. Recently, her son, Elijah Blue Allman, has gained attention from excited fans. They have pointed out his striking resemblance to his famous father, Gregg Allman, as well as his handsome appearance.
Elijah has undergone a remarkable transformation over the years. Photos show his evolution from a young boy to a grown man, shedding his rebellious youth for a more polished and striking look. Now matured, Elijah is seeking to reconcile and rebuild the significant rift with his mom.
Elijah’s dad was the iconic leader of The Allman Brothers Band. Cher was Gregg’s seventh wife and the two were married from 1975 to 1979. Gregg had written in his autobiography, “Cher smelled like a mermaid. I’ve never smelled it since and I’ll never forget it.”
However, all was not good in Cher and Gregg’s marriage as it faced immediate challenges right after their wedding. On July 9, 1975, just nine days later, Cher filed for divorce, citing Gregg’s struggles with heroin and alcohol as insurmountable issues.
Reflecting on that tumultuous time, Cher recounted, “He was so high he didn’t even understand me” when she called to end their marriage.
Despite the initial separation, Gregg reconciled with Cher but he later initiated divorce proceedings himself. Their relationship saw another twist when Cher became pregnant with their son, Elijah, prompting Gregg Allman to reconsider.
However, they eventually parted ways for good. Gregg attributed the final split to irreconcilable differences, noting, “There was no future for us because she has that constant paranoia of (my) going back to alcohol.”
Sadly, Gregg died on May 27, 2017, at the age of 69. Upon his demise, a sad Cher wrote on X, “IVE TRIED… WORDS ARE IMPOSSIBLE GUI GUI💔 FOREVER, CHOOCH💋.”
Recently, the picture of Gregg and Cher in their younger years was shared online for AmoMama readers, with the caption, “Cher & Greg Allman. 💔 Can’t even choose who in this ICONIC COUPLE is MORE BEAUTIFUL.🤔”
AmoMama readers shared their opinions on who is more beautiful between Gregg and Cher. Most readers agreed that Gregg was better looking between the two. A reader replied, “Gregg.” Another reader commented, “He was pretty handsome at one time.”
One reader outrightly said, “Well, it’s not him,” about Gregg. A related comment from a reader about Cher read, “It certainly isn’t her.”
With Gregg gone, he left Cher with their son Elijah Blue Allman, whose transformation into a handsome man, just like his father was, is clear in shared pictures.
Early Childhood: One Year Old
Cher and Gregg welcomed Elijah on July 10, 1976. In a heartwarming picture taken in 1977, Cher is seen cradling her bubbly son. Elijah, a cheerful child, is dressed in an adorable white onesie adorned with cartoon drawings.
In another picture, the singer is seen holding her son, Elijah, who is dressed in a charming blue onesie. Cher, who embraced motherhood for the second time with Elijah, looks lovingly at her son, capturing a tender moment of maternal affection.
Despite Cher’s husbands and partners, she raised Elijah primarily as a single mother. Her first child, Chaz Bono, previously Chastity, once expressed frustration during a trip, noting that their mom could never not be Cher and just do something with her kids.
Cher struggled to balance her demanding career with motherhood, admitting, “I did the best I could, and yet it was definitely lacking.”
When asked if she believed her children held any lingering resentment due to her perceived shortcomings as a parent, Cher explained that while Chaz has made peace with it, Elijah has yet to come to terms. Nonetheless, she emphasized, “They both really love me. But it’s hard.”
Even so, Cher is a loving mother who dotes on her kids. A picture that showcases this affection was taken in December 1977. An adorable Elijah seems busy with baby talk as his mom holds him close to her as they walk. This moment captures Cher’s devotion to her children.
