Cher, the iconic singer, has long been admired for her talent and stunning looks. Recently, her son, Elijah Blue Allman, has gained attention from excited fans. They have pointed out his striking resemblance to his famous father, Gregg Allman, as well as his handsome appearance.
Elijah has undergone a remarkable transformation over the years. Photos show his evolution from a young boy to a grown man, shedding his rebellious youth for a more polished and striking look. Now matured, Elijah is seeking to reconcile and rebuild the significant rift with his mom.

Elijah’s dad was the iconic leader of The Allman Brothers Band. Cher was Gregg’s seventh wife and the two were married from 1975 to 1979. Gregg had written in his autobiography, “Cher smelled like a mermaid. I’ve never smelled it since and I’ll never forget it.”

However, all was not good in Cher and Gregg’s marriage as it faced immediate challenges right after their wedding. On July 9, 1975, just nine days later, Cher filed for divorce, citing Gregg’s struggles with heroin and alcohol as insurmountable issues.
