{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Cher allegedly kidnapped her son, Elijah Blue Allman, in November 2022, according to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital.
The accusation was lobbed at the pop star and actress in divorce documents filed by Allman's estranged wife, Marie Angela King. Allman originally filed for divorce from King in November 2021, and King filed court documents in December 2022 that turned the focus on Cher.
According to King, the estranged couple spent 12 days together while they were "working" on their marriage in New York City last November. On the couple's wedding anniversary, four men came to the hotel room they were sharing and "removed" Allman, the newly surfaced court docs stated.
