Cher's son Elijah Blue Allman disheveled with fake nail, sores at LA hotspot after singer sounded alarm on his ‘mental health'
Cher's 48-year-old son, Elijah Blue Allman, was recently spotted looking worse for wear following the end of his ugly conservatorship battle with his superstar mom.
Allman, whose father was the late Southern rockstar Gregg Allman, was caught on camera smoking a cigarette outside the famous Chateau Marmont hotel on the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles, Calif., this week.

His clothes were in tatters, per a video first obtained by Daily Mail, and he struggled to stand up straight as he stumbled around the exclusive Hollywood hotspot.
Allman, who had a long, nail-polished fingernail on his right hand, was also seen staring off vacantly before shakily wandering back into the famed hotel.
The Post reached out to Cher's rep for comment.
The disturbing footage of Cher's adult son comes after the 'Believe' singer, 78, and Allman months after they ended their bitter conservatorship battle.

Cher first applied to place her son in a conservatorship in December 2023, claiming he could not 'substantially manage his own financial resources' because of 'severe mental health and substance abuse issues.'
'Any funds distributed to Elijah will immediately be spent on drugs, leaving Elijah with no assets to provide for himself, and putting Elijah's life at risk,' the legal documents stated.
She also claimed that Allman's estranged wife, Marieangela King, was a bad influence on her son and actively worked against her efforts to get him help.

The battle became so intense that King, 37, accused the Goddess of Pop of hiring four men to kidnap Allman to send him to a rehab facility.
But Cher denied King's kidnapping allegations and told The Post at the time, 'I didn't do it, and if I did it, I wouldn't say I did it.'
The 'If I Could Turn Back Time' singer ultimately dismissed the conservatorship case in September 2024.

'The team successfully defended Elijah, resulting in Cher voluntarily dismissing her petition,' Allman's lawyers told People following the dismissal.
'This outcome allows the parties to focus on healing and rebuilding their family bond,' they added, 'a process that began during mediation and continues today.'
In April, King filed for divorce from Allman, citing irreconcilable differences. She marked their date of separation as March 31, 2025.

'We had a beautiful 13-year journey, filled with memories I'll always cherish,' she said after filing for divorcen. 'I know we'll remain friends, and Elijah will always hold a special place in my heart.'
'As we turn the page to this next chapter,' she added, 'we kindly ask for privacy and truly appreciate your understanding.'
King also requested $6K per month in temporary spousal support and the family vehicle: a 2017 Toyota Prius.

I'm a superyacht nanny — I get paid to travel the world in luxury while watching rich people's kids
BB Smalls wasn't looking for a free ride when she signed on as a nanny to Hollywood honchos, globally-renowned rock stars and bigwig billionaires. But free first-class flights to Bora Bora, $100,000 rooms at the St. Regis Resort and bougie boating excursions along the Amalfi Coast are exactly what she got — not to mention routine shopping sprees at Gucci, Chanel and Louis Vuitton — while on the job. 'I've been everywhere: Maui, Tahiti, London, Italy, Scotland, you name it,' Smalls, 44, from Los Angeles, tells The Post. Advertisement Nondisclosure agreements bar her from spilling the secrets and specifics of her eccentric ex-bosses. But Smalls, now a married stay-at-home mom living in Texas, says, 'Nannying for the right people means getting paid to travel.' She's in the 40% of childcare providers who are 'superyacht nannies,' and regularly globetrot, by sky, land or sea, to luxe locations with their employers, per data via the International Nanny Association. 9 BB Smalls has been living a grand life as a superyacht nanny to the rich and famous. Courtesy BB Smalls Advertisement It's a post that grants kiddo pros the opportunity to see the sights, as well as how the top 1% travels, for free. The super lucky even get to nanny on superyachts, vacation vessels spanning over 80 feet in length, which are roughly twice the length of an average yacht. The behemoths come fully staffed with a captain and crew. Chartering the megacruisers can cost between $100,000 and more than $1 million per week, depending on size, time of year and onboard amenities, such as helipads, movie theatres, Jacuzzis and gyms. But most A-list showboats like Mark Zuckerberg, who paid a reported $300 million for his 387-foot superyacht, and Jeff Bezos, with his 417-foot, $500 million ship, rarely sweat over dollars and cents. Advertisement 9 Ella Peters has been a superyacht nanny for a decade. Ella Peters/ Ella Peters, a superyacht nanny of nearly 10 years, said that during peak yachting season, June through August, she's often booked for back-to-back trips with a revolving door of well-to-do employers from NYC, Europe and the Middle East. 'I do love the job,' the 28-year-old owner of UK's tells The Post. 'But it is exhausting.' She charges around $500 per day for her on-ship sitter services. However, her fees, not including the standard 'four-figure tip' she typically receives, can increase according to the number of children aboard and their ages. Advertisement 9 Peters' job has taken her all over the world. Ella Peters/ Like Smalls, Peters works for internationally known hotshots whose names must remain hush-hush due to NDAs. Her upper-crust clients routinely rent nearly 300-foot-long tubs, costing over $1 million per week, for family cruises through the Mediterranean. The preferred path they sail is famously known as 'The Milk Run.' On it, tycoons tour the south of France, Corsica and Sardinia, Italy — home to Costa Smeralda, nicknamed 'billionaires' playground,' owing to its turquoise waters, fine-sand shores and chichi beach clubs. 'It has everything my ultrahigh net worth families want,' said Peters. 'My favorite 'pinch me' moment was driving myself and my 11-year-old charge on a jet ski through the famous Faraglioni rocks in Capri, Italy,' the Londoner said. 9 Peters said her clients are 'ultrahigh net worth families,' but NDAs forbid her from disclosing whom she's worked for. Ella Peters/ Still, Smalls, who recently left VIP nannying for content creation, says working for the uberwealthy wasn't always smooth sailing. 'One Bel Air family wanted me to nanny for them on a yacht for an entire month, but I wasn't allowed to be seen,' she recalled of the odd demand. 'If either parent walked into a room that I was in, I'd have to hide and hold in place until they left the room.' Advertisement 'During my downtime on the yacht, I'd have to stay out of sight and be banished to my room.' But Peters has only had stellar experiences — and very little downtime — while minding mini moguls on the waves. 'I get up before the children and try to drink some coffee in peace,' Peters says. 'When you're onboard, you have to put in effort to get a few moments to yourself. After that, everything is go, go, go.' But her skills are worth every penny. Advertisement 9 Peters does everything from feeding the kids breakfasts aboard the ship to accompanying them on jet ski rides. Ella Peters/ Peters comes fully equipped with pediatric first-aid training, police background clearance, nanny insurance, water safety training and a personal watercraft license — documents that permit her to operate jet skis and paddle boats. And while their moneyed mommies and daddies play, she entertains the tots all day. 'After my coffee, I greet the kids in the morning as they wake up, then feed them a small breakfast before we do arts and crafts,' Peters began. Advertisement Depending on the size of the superyacht, she either gets her own room, bunks with the babies or shares living quarters with a crew member. 9 Peters said the best route to sail is famously known as 'The Milk Run,' which goes through the south of France, Corsica and Sardinia, Italy — home to Costa Smeralda, nicknamed 'billionaires' playground.' Ella Peters/ 'When the parents wake up, the kids have a proper family breakfast with them, then we do a few morning watersports before they do a family-style buffet lunch,' continued the millennial. 'In the afternoon, when the sun is really hot, we do more arts and crafts before doing more water activities or stopping off at a local village for ice cream and exploring.' 'At night, I feed the kids dinner while the parents prepare for their evening plans,' she said of the superpacked schedule. 'Then it's time for bed.' Advertisement 9 Peters said she is booked solid through yacht season to watch kiddos. Ella Peters/ Sarah Leonard, 25, a superyacht nanny from Maryland, however, tells The Post her days on the water are more like walks in the park. 'I spend about four hours a day working with the kids, the rest of the time I'm able to chill on the yacht or maybe explore,' said the Gen Z. She's spent the past two summers as a superyacht nanny for a South African influencer family with a bent towards boating around Turkey, Greece and Italy. 'I was working as a scuba diver in Puerto Rico back in 2023, and I saw a Facebook listing for a yacht nannying position and applied,' said Leonard, a certified rescue diver and CPR expert and former lifeguard. 9 Sarah Leonard, 25, has been a superyacht nanny for the past two summers. @sarahtravelingnanny/TikTok For her, the childcare gig was an unpaid position that came with the perks of enjoying an all-inclusive, saltwater excursion. And the family, comprising a mom, dad and two boys under age 8, treated Leonard like family, giving her a private bedroom and bathroom, including her in family meals and 'gifting' her with a special token of their appreciation at the end of the two-month journey. 9 Leonard wasn't paid for her gig, but got to join a family for two months on their yacht. @sarahtravelingnanny/TikTok But Leonard, who'll be touring Italy and France with new brood this summer, says traveling with little ones is the true gift that keeps on giving. 'I get to experience the world through the eyes of these little kids,' gushed the superyacht nanny. 'It's magical.'
