*What Kayti Edwards says happened*

1. *The parents*: Edwards says she had a brief romance with Cher’s son, Elijah Blue Allman, in 2010, which resulted in their daughter Ever. She told _The Sun_ that Allman “always knew from day one, but he never wanted to be a parent”.

2. *How Cher found out*: Edwards alleges that Allman “blurted out” he had a child after a 2021 drug overdose. Cher heard rumors but thought it was “crazy talk”. In June 2025, Cher called Edwards directly to ask if it was true. af5c8687

> “When she heard the news, she was speechless,” Edwards told _The Sun_. “Cher told her family, ‘Oh my God, I’m finally a grandma’”. 8687af5c

3. *The family connection*: Edwards is the step-granddaughter of Julie Andrews. Her mother is Jennifer Edwards, daughter of _Pink Panther_ director Blake Edwards and his first wife Patricia. Blake Edwards was married to Julie Andrews for 41 years.

4. *Meeting Cher*: Edwards says Cher invited her and Ever to stay at her Malibu home in September 2025. “Cher was lovely and kind, and we had dinner,” Edwards said. Cher showed Ever stage costumes, they played in the pool, and Cher asked about school and boys. Cher has since sent Ever Christmas and birthday gifts.

*Context around Elijah Blue Allman*

– Allman, 49, is Cher’s son with late rocker Gregg Allman. He’s had public struggles with addiction.
– Cher filed for an emergency conservatorship for Elijah in 2023, dismissed it in September 2024, then refiled recently.
– Edwards says her husband has raised Ever as her “true father”, and that Allman would “pop in every couple of years but would just say hello”.

*Cher’s past comments on grandchildren*

In 2018, Cher told _The Mirror_: “I don’t have any grandchildren. I wish I did, I really do”. People noted the discovery came 7 years after that interview.

*Official response*

A rep for Cher had no comment when reached by _People_. Neither Cher nor Allman has publicly confirmed the claims.

*Why this is getting attention*

1. *The Hollywood lineage*: It connects two iconic families — Cher/Allman and Julie Andrews/Blake Edwards.
2. *Timing*: It emerged amid Cher’s ongoing legal battle over Elijah’s conservatorship.
3. *The “secret” angle*: Ever was born in 2010, making her 15 in 2026, but Cher only learned about her last year.

Edwards told _People_ that Cher is “still processing the news” but “really trying” to build a relationship. She added: “It’s an adjustment, and I’m not pushing any relationship. It has to come naturally”.
