Meeting your parent’s new dating partners can be challenging for a child.
Such was the case for Elijah Blue Allman, the youngest son oflegendary singer Cher.
In the video, Allman asserted that his mother’s love interests throughout the 1980s weren’t a burden.

They served as much-needed father figures and superstar ones at that.
“Richie and I would sit up all night playing guitar.
His first electric guitar, he explained toHuffPostin 2010, was from Kiss frontman Gene Simmons.

I remember Andy Warhol coming over to the house and things like that.
I didn’t appreciate what that was at that time.”
Allman’s addiction contributed to his rocky relationship with his mother.

In 2022, Allman and his wife, Marieangela King, filed for divorce.
Cher toldPeoplein 2023 that the accusations were false.
