Cher's son rushed to hospital after drug overdose
Cher's son Elijah Blue Allman was reportedly rushed to a hospital in Joshua Tree, California, after overdosing. The 48-year-old is currently receiving care at a medical centre and is fortunate to have survived the incident, TMZ reported today. Insiders told the outlet that the singer is focusing on 'her son's wellbeing, and she's doing everything she can to get him the help he needs.' It's unclear what drugs Allman had taken. Reps for Cher, 79, weren't immediately available to Page Six for comment. The pop star shares Elijah with her late second ex-husband, Gregg Allman. She is also the mother to son Chaz Bono, 56, whom she shares with her late first ex-husband, Sonny Bono. During a 2014 interview, Elijah admitted to taking drugs, saying he started around age 11. Cher previously filed for a temporary sole conservatorship over Elijah's finances in 2023, citing that he suffered from '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,' court documents read. Cher, however, withdrew the reques t in September 2024. Elijah's reported overdose comes after he was seen looking dishevelled outside the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood, California, last month. He was photographed wearing a torn T-shirt and baggy shorts. He looked to be sweating and appeared disoriented. Elijah is currently going through a divorce from his estranged wife, Marieangela King, according to court documents obtained by Page Six in April. She cited 'irreconcilable differences' and requested he pay $US6,000 per month in temporary spousal support.
