This update follows Edwards' involvement in a physical altercation with Travis Scott at a party during the Cannes Film Festival on May 23.
Alexander 'AE' Edwards quotes lyrics to confirm his relationship with Cher
According to People, Edwards quoted lyrics from Future and Metro Boomin's "GTA" to affirm that everything is fine between him and Cher.
He stated, "Like Future says, ‘Whatever I’m with, my woman's with it, too.'"
The rapper then explained his choice of words, stating, “My woman, but the lyrics are the lyrics.”
Edwards dismissed questions about any imminent wedding plans but reiterated that his relationship with Cher remains strong. “Aye bro, listen, we happy. We’re a happy family,” he said.
Cher and Edwards, who have been romantically linked since late 2022, were last seen together at the 2024 amfAR Gala in Cannes, coinciding with the altercation between Edwards and Scott.

Cher shares her experience with Alexander 'AE' Edwards at 'fabulous place'
A couple of days earlier, on May 20, Cher celebrated her 78th birthday, revealing that they had a delightful time at a ‘fabulous place’ to mark the occasion.
She further described their experience at the romantic Chateau Romanov residence, "It was amazing!" and praised her boyfriend's hospitality, stating, "He was very nice as a host."
Since making their relationship public, Cher has expressed her affection for Edwards, despite concerns regarding their significant age difference.
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee remarked in October 2023, "Alexander’s got diamond teeth, tattoos, white hair, and he’s way younger. He’s a beautiful man."
Cher also revealed that she and Edwards initially connected through text after meeting briefly at a Paris Fashion Week event in 2022.
Recalling the unexpected exchange, she admitted, "It was really shocking, because people just don’t give out my number."
Despite her initial reservations, a mutual friend facilitated their connection, “I had been telling all my friends, ‘We’re too old to go out with really younger men, and I will never fall in love on text.’ So I did what I said not to do!”
Despite any initial doubts, Cher expressed no regrets about defying her rules, emphasizing Edward is “just so special.”
She added, “No matter what happens, I love being with him. He makes me laugh, and we have fun. What I learned is that it’s never too late. If you wrote out all the statistics, you would go, ‘Well, this is doomed.’ But we’ve been together a year, and if it was just a year, it would’ve been worth it. I’ve had the best time.”
