Cher, 78, and boyfriend Alexander ‘AE’ Edwards, 38, take his son, Slash, 5, to Cirque du Soleil show

Cher spent some quality time with her much-younger boyfriend and his son at Cirque du Soleil’s “Kooza” premiere in Santa Monica, Calif., on Thursday night.

All eyes were on the 78-year-old hitmaker and Alexander “AE” Edwards, 38, as they walked the red carpet alongside his 5-year-old, Slash, whom the music executive shares with ex Amber Rose.

The elementary schooler smiled wide as the trio posed for photos together, with Edwards draping one arm around his son and the other around his leading lady.

After taking some group pictures, Cher posed for several solo shots in her burgundy outfit. The music icon dressed up her simple zippered sweatshirt with a diamond drop necklace and baggy, bedazzled cargo shorts — nearly identical to the ones worn during the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show last week.

She completed the look with a black puffer jacket and leather boots.

Edwards, for his part, opted for an all-black outfit and added a pop of color with green sneakers.

It’s been a busy month for the pair, who packed on the PDA on the Victoria’s Secret red carpet in Brooklyn on Oct. 15 before jetting to Ohio for Cher’s induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland a few days later.

The “Burlesque” actress seems to have grown close to Edwards’ son, as the youngster joined the couple for the prestigious event on Oct. 19.

The trio rocked coordinated black ensembles for the big night, in which stars such as Zendaya and Dua Lipa paid tribute to the legendary singer.

Cher and Edwards were first romantically linked in November 2022 after they were spotted on a dinner date.

Despite criticism over their 40-year age gap, the pop superstar later gushed about her beau on X, calling him “kind, smart” and “hilarious.”

“& We [kiss] Like Teenagers,” she cheekily added.

Cher admitted on “The Kelly Clarkson Show” that December that she could understand why people were a bit skeptical about their romance.

“On paper, it’s kind of ridiculous,” she lamented. “But in real life, we get along great.”

Although she prefers not to “give men” praise “they don’t deserve,” the “Mama Mia!” star described her beau as “fabulous,” “very kind,” “very smart,” “very talented” and “really funny.”

Although the couple briefly split in May 2023 following engagement rumors, they rekindled their romance four months later and have been going strong ever since.

Last October, Cher told “Extra” she was really “happy” with Edwards and they “have a great time together” — even if he doesn’t always understand her “references.”

“We can talk music. We can talk about everything,” she said. “He’s got a great sense of humor, he’s got the cutest son in the world, ever. … We just get each other.”
