In a recent incident, Cher faced accusations of masterminding the abduction of her 47-year-old son, Elijah Blue Allman, last November, per OK Magaizine

Elijah, who is also a musician, was residing in a hotel in New York, seeking to mend fences with his estranged wife, Mariangela King, while reportedly grappling with substance abuse problems. An insider suggested that Cher resorted to hiring individuals out of a deep sense of desperation and love for her son, who was going through difficult times.

“Cher thought Elijah’s wife was a bad influence who was steering Elijah down a dangerous path,”

the source revealed to a news outlet.

“She was desperate to help her son, so she did what she had to do.”

The source continued to explain that the

“Believe”

singer wouldn’t label the incident as a straightforward case of

“kidnapping,”

exactly.

“That’s an exaggeration,”

they noted.

“But she was terrified that her son might die if she didn’t get him out of there.”

They added

“Cher loves her son. Though he was a difficult kid and probably hated her at times, she did her best and took care of him financially,”

the source revealed about the 47-year-old individual who started experimenting with illegal substances like marijuana and ecstasy at the young age of 11.

“Elijah worries Cher sick, but she’d never abandon him.” 

The initial report of the alleged abduction surfaced through a statement made by Mariangela to the court, as she sought to delay a divorce hearing. According to her account, on their wedding anniversary, a group of four individuals entered their hotel room and took Elijah away forcefully.

“I was told by one of the four men who took him that they were hired by (Elijah’s) mother,”

Mariangela’s court statement continued.

“I am currently unaware of my husband’s well-being or whereabouts.”
