Los Angeles, Nov 8 (UiTV/IANS) – Singer Cher has confirmed her romance with music producer Alexander ‘A.E.’ Edwards and hit out at critics of their 40-year age gap.
The ‘Believe’ hitmaker, 76, set tongues wagging over the weekend when she posted a photo of her 36-year-old beau – who has three-year-old son Slash with model Amber Rose, with a red heart emoji on Twitter at the weekend, days after the pair were spotted walking hand-in-hand on a date night at Craig’s restaurant in West Hollywood on November 2, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
Responding to those calling out their age difference, Cher snapped back: “I’m Not Defending us. Haters are Gonna Hate�Doesn’ Matter That and Not Bothering Anyone.”
When another user questioned Alexander’s “motives and intentions”, she replied: “Haven’t You Got Anything Else 2 Do!? Let Me Explain�I DONT GIVE A (plane emoji) FK WHAT ANYONE THINKS.”
Cher previously dated Tom Cruise, 60, with whom she had a 16-year age gap. The music legend has been married twice before to Sonny Bono from 1964 to 1975 and Gregg Allman from 1975 to 1979.
The ‘If I Could Turn Back Time’ hitmaker’s pal previously revealed what she looks for in a man.
