Summary
Cher is more than just a singer and international icon - she’s a mom. And if we “believe” what was revealed in court documents, she went to crazy lengths to save her son, Elijah Allman. According to her daughter-in-law, Marie King, Cher hired four men to snatch Elijah from a NYC hotel room and drag him to rehab. Elijah’s had a long battle with drug addiction, and a source close to the legendary singer told Page Six that she was just trying to help him. But this whole thing went down without his wife’s knowledge. So if she could "turn back time," would Cher do it all again?
