When the legendary singer and actress Cher discovered that she has a 15‑year‑old granddaughter, the world’s attention turned to the iconic star’s personal life. The revelation came from Kayti Edwards, a former model and step‑granddaughter of Julie Andrews, who revealed that her daughter, Ever, was born during a brief romance with Cher’s son, Elijah Blue Allman, in 2010. Cher, who is 79, was reportedly “speechless” upon learning the news, and the family is now navigating the new dynamic of a grandmother‑granddaughter relationship that had been hidden for years.
The Unexpected Revelation
Kayti Edwards first brought the story to light in an interview with The Sun on April 19. She explained that Ever was born in 2008, during a short affair between Edwards and Elijah Blue Allman, who was 49 at the time. Edwards said that Allman never wanted to be a parent and did not play an active role in raising Ever. According to Edwards, Allman only informed his estranged wife, Marieangela King, about the child in 2021, which sparked rumors within the family.
When the rumors reached Cher, she reached out to Edwards in June of the previous year to confirm the details. Edwards admitted that she had to confess the truth when Cher asked if it was real. “I had to tell her the truth,” she said. “She was so surprised, she was speechless.”
Family Dynamics and the Role of Elijah Blue Allman
Elijah Blue Allman, the son of Cher and her late husband, guitarist and producer, guitarist and producer, has had a complex relationship with his mother. He has been the subject of public scrutiny for his personal life, and his decision not to raise Ever has added another layer of complexity to the family’s story.
Allman’s lack of involvement in Ever’s upbringing has been a point of contention. Edwards claimed that Allman was never interested in becoming a parent and that he only disclosed the existence of his daughter to his wife in 2021. The revelation that Allman had a child with Edwards has led to speculation about the nature of his relationship with his son’s mother and the impact on the family’s dynamics.
Despite the distance between them, Cher has begun to build a relationship with Ever. In September 2025, the singer reportedly invited both Kayti Edwards and Ever to spend the night at her Malibu home. Edwards described the evening as “lovely and kind,” noting that Cher showed Ever a pair of jeans she had worn in concert and asked her about school and boys. The experience was described as “cool” for Ever, and the two spent time in the pool and had dinner together.
