Cher‘s devotion to her two children—Chaz Bono and Elijah Blue Allman—is evident in her tireless efforts to provide them with unwavering support and invaluable guidance through life’s trials and triumphs. However, despite her well-intentioned actions, tensions occasionally flare between Cher and her children as they candidly voice their concerns and disagreements about her parental approach.
In a recent development, sources close to Cher have disclosed that her relationship with her first child, Chaz Bono, has undergone significant strain. This breakdown has led him to make a pivotal decision that has profoundly impacted the relationship between both parties.
Chaz Bono won’t be inviting mom Cher to his upcoming wedding
In a recent interview with In Touch magazine, insiders disclosed that Chaz and his fiancée, whom he has been dating since 2017, have decided not to include Cher among their wedding guests. “Chaz and Shara are removing Cher from the guest list entirely and don’t feel too bad about it either,” the source mentioned. “They want a simple ceremony with none of Cher’s theatrics.”

The source highlighted that the tension in their relationship stemmed from Chaz’s revelation about being gay and undergoing a transition in 2008. Since then, the 57-year-old has harbored resentment towards his mother. “Cher has tried to be there for her kids,” the insider added. “But neither wants anything to do with her. It’s devastating.”
Cher’s reported disagreement with Chaz is just one aspect of her current challenges. Previously, she faced a legal setback while trying to establish a conservatorship for her second son, Elijah Blue Allman.
The 47-year-old, who has been battling addiction, expressed his opposition to his mother’s efforts, implying that her motivations were not solely altruistic but possibly influenced by his reconciliation with his wife, Marieangela King, as King had been a vocal opponent of Cher’s plan to enroll him in a non-traditional rehabilitation facility.
