Singer-actress Cher has a lot of “love and understanding” for her beau Alexander ‘A.E.’ Edwards even when he’s not quite sure what she’s talking about.
The 77-year-old icon opened up about what it’s like dating someone 40 years younger, reports People magazine.
She told Extra: “I hate to talk about how happy I am, but no, we have a great time together. We can talk about music. We can talk about everything. He’s got a great sense of humour, he’s got the cutest son in the world, ever… We just get each other.”
As per People, the ‘Believe’ songstress and Edwards first sparked relationship rumours when they were photographed holding hands in November 2022. His role as a music executive at Universal Music Group may help with their common connection, but when it comes to other topics, Cher admits he can be left stumped.

She said: “Sometimes I’m talking to him and he has no idea who I’m talking about… The other day, I said, ‘Do you know who, I don’t know, Clark Gable, (is)?’ Somebody said, ‘Yes, of course,’ but most of my references… He’ll look at me and go, ‘I wasn’t born yet’.”
Cher spoke with Extra while promoting her latest album, ‘Christmas’. Edwards also worked on the project. “This must be the right time because I was asked forever and starting from Sonny and Cher days,” the Golden Globe winner said, noting how she previously felt she’d never do a holiday album.

“It’s a very strange Christmas album. All the tracks are their own little islands. Nothing seems to go together, but when you hear it, it works,” she added.
