On Sunday, Cher posted a pic of the 36-year-old music executive, writing, "Alexander♥️."

Edwards, who is the VP of A&R at Def Jam Records, was last linked to Amber Rose. The pair confirmed their romance in 2018. One year later, they welcomed their 3-year-old son, Slash Electric Alexander Edwards. Rose and Edwards ended their relationship in 2021, and he admitted to cheating on her with 12 women.

Meanwhile, Cher has kept her love life private, but has opened up about her past relationships with Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer and KISS frontman Gene Simmons.  

In 2018, the "Turn Back Time" singer dished on her feelings about dating in the limelight and why it’s so hard.  

"Not this week. I’m still on the lookout," the Oscar winner said. "The problem I have with all the boyfriends lately is that I don’t want to go any place with them because you can’t keep a relationship going in this kind of goldfish bowl, where everything you do and every picture you have taken will be on Instagram. There’s no way to keep something special."
