Cher Accused of Halting Financial Support to Son Amid Legal Dispute
Singer Cher and her son, Elijah Blue Allman, are embroiled in an ongoing legal battle involving family disputes and financial allegations. New court documents reveal that Allman claims Cher ceased providing him with $10,000 in monthly financial assistance in August 2021. This revelation emerged as Allman petitioned the court to reduce spousal support payments to his estranged wife, Marieangela King, citing limited income. Allman stated that his only regular revenue source is a trust linked to his late father, Gregg Allman, yielding approximately $6,790 monthly after taxes. The financial dispute is part of a broader conflict where Cher previously sought emergency conservatorship over Allman’s estate, arguing that his struggles with addiction and mental health impaired his ability to manage finances. Although a judge rejected Cher’s conservatorship request in April 2026, the case remains unresolved. Allman has recently faced personal challenges, including arrests and psychiatric treatment. Cher’s legal team maintains that her actions are motivated solely by concern for her son’s wellbeing and safety amidst these continuing troubles.
