The world was shocked when Cher introduced her new lover, AE Edwards, to fans online last year. Few are surprised to hear that the 76-year-old has now reportedly "postponed" her upcoming wedding to the music producer. Along with followers, her family continues to express concern about their unusual union. Not only does he share a child with Amber Rose, but Edwards is also 40 years the iconic singer's junior. This is apparently beginning to raise some red flags for her.

As RadarOnline reports, those closest to the fashionista are under the impression that her younger man is hoping to inherit her $380M fortune. They've also expressed concern about Edwards' potential attempts to further his own career using Cher's name and legacy. "For a while, [she] followed this guy around like a lovesick puppy, but the blinders seem to be coming off," an insider dished to the outlet today (May 1). "Cher’s starting to see Alexander in a different light," they noted. This suggests that the couple's honeymoon phase has clearly come to a screeching halt.

It's important to note that she hasn't broken up with the father of one, but is definitely "pumping the breaks." As her 77th birthday approaches later this month, she was spotted out and about in Los Angeles sans her massive diamond ring, which is what first caused concern. When Edwards first proposed in late 2022, Cher proudly showed her huge rock off. However, rumour has it that she may have bought the engagement ring herself – and that she's been spending plenty of her money spoiling AE too.

"Cher has always been so careful about her money, but she was throwing it at this guy and funding his over-the-top lifestyle!" RadarOnline's source alleged. The Armenian starlet has hinted at working on music together with AE Edwards, but now is reportedly "annoyed with his suspicious behaviour, and his bossy attitude at the recording studio." His other major flaws are "always inviting friends over for parties," as well as "going missing without answering his phone." At this time, Cher is under the impression that their decades-spanning age difference will make a long-lasting marriage impossible.
