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 months after the 'Believe' singer, 78, and Allman 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 divorce. '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.

Addison Rae Introduces Herself With Debut Album ‘Addison'
Addison Rae Getty Images for Coachella In just a few short years, Addison Rae has risen from budding TikTok star to pop music's newest 'it' girl. She made a splash on the Billboard Hot 100 last year with 'Diet Pepsi' and returned to the chart for her recent single 'Headphones On." That climb has culminated in Rae's self-titled debut album Addison, out now. Though she's only a few years into her career, Rae projects the confidence of an industry veteran on the album, as evidenced by most recent single 'Fame Is a Gun," proclaiming 'There's no mystery, I'm gonna make it, gonna go down in history / Don't ask too many questions, God gave me the permission / And when you shame me, it makes me want it more.' When reflecting on her journey and where she is now in a recent cover story with Elle, Rae explained that she's reached a place in her career where she's in control of what she does. 'I have the luxury now to say no to things I'm not interested in, or that don't feel like me or aren't reflective of who I am. It's still a job, at the end of the day. Everybody is trying to survive — I'm trying to survive and live here and do all these things that I love — but I definitely have become more intentional, because I do think saying no to things opens up a door for a much better yes,' she said. Still, she isn't resting on her laurels just as she's making her big debut in the pop world. 'What does that even mean, really, to be the pop girl? Let's see if the songs get more popular, then they can call me a pop girl," she mused to Variety. 'This is my shot. I've got to go big.'
