Cher’s son, Elijah Blue Allman, has found himself in legal trouble once again, this time facing assault charges following an alleged incident at a school. This arrest comes less than a year after Allman was taken to a medical facility in California in June 2025, with law enforcement officials claiming he was behaving erratically.
Despite these recent legal issues, Allman’s estranged wife, Marieangela King Allman, has come to his defense. In a statement to People, she emphasized Allman’s commitment to sobriety and his loyalty to his loved ones. She highlighted his strength in facing his inner struggles and living with integrity and purpose.
“While Elijah has faced personal challenges in the past, one constant has been his unwavering commitment to sobriety and his loyalty to those he loves,” Marieangela King Allman said. “Like many, he continues to confront his inner struggles — but it is important to recognize that he does so from a place of strength, not defeat. Despite the assumptions that often color how his journey is portrayed, the reality is that Elijah remains grounded, focused and deeply committed to living with integrity and purpose.”
She continued, expressing her unwavering support for Allman and her belief in his resilience. “I want to state, without hesitation, that I will always root for him. My support is steadfast and comes from a place of deep respect for the person he is and the resilience he continues to show.”
As the legal proceedings unfold, Allman’s family and loved ones continue to stand by him, offering their support and encouragement during this challenging time.
