Cher files for conservatorship of son Elijah Blue Allman, citing 'substance abuse issues

 Yes, in December 2023, Cher filed for a conservatorship of her 47-year-old son Elijah Blue Allman, citing his "severe mental health and substance abuse issues." In court documents, Cher stated that Allman is unable to manage his finances and is at risk of using his trust distributions to buy drugs, potentially endangering himself and his well-being. She also expressed concerns about his overall mental health and the potential for him to make decisions that could harm himself or others.

The conservatorship petition was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court and is currently pending review. If granted, Cher would be appointed as Allman's conservator, overseeing his finances and personal affairs. This would include managing his assets, making decisions about his medical treatment and housing, and ensuring that his basic needs are met.

Allman has not publicly commented on the conservatorship filing. However, he has posted a cryptic message on Instagram using the hashtag "#imprisonmentviaconservatorship," suggesting that he may not agree with Cher's decision.

The conservatorship process is a complex one, and there is no guarantee that Cher's request will be granted. The court will need to weigh the evidence and determine whether Allman is truly incapable of managing his own affairs. If the conservatorship is granted, it will be up to Cher to fulfill her responsibilities to her son and ensure that his well-being is protected.
