Cher reportedly hired four men to kidnap her son Elijah Blue Allman as he tried to save his marriage to Marieangela King.
Elijah, 47, was trying to reconcile with Marieangela, 36, on their wedding anniversary last November.
Cher’s youngest son was with his wife for 12 days before the men allegedly took him away from their New York hotel room.
Days later, Marieangela claims she was “unaware of my husband’s wellbeing or whereabouts” in court documents obtained by the Daily Mail.
“I am very concerned and worried about him,” she said in the declaration signed on December 4, 2022.

“I was told by one of the four men who took him that they were hired by petitioner’s mother.”
She went on to claim that she believed Elijah was “in lockdown” at an undisclosed treatment facility and didn’t have access to his phone.
“I understand his family’s efforts to make sure he is well, and I want what is best for my husband,” Marieangela said.
Elijah filed for divorce from Marieangela in 2021 and was apparently staying at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood before landing back in rehab.

Insiders told the publication that hotel staff would reach out to Cher during his stay there to express concerns for his health.
“Virtually every morning and afternoon Elijah could be seen in front of the hotel on the sidewalk either leaning against the wall or sitting on the sidewalk smoking,” one source said.
“He would come out with a full cigarette and by the time he had finished it, he would be passed out.”
Cher allegedly hired a caretaker to look out for Elijah before hotel staff found him lying face down and unconscious.
He was picked up and brought back inside and authorities arrived two days later to take him to rehab, sources said.
Believe hitmaker Cher shares Elijah with her former husband Gregg Allman and has had a troubled relationship with him and her daughter-in-law over the years.
Elijah previously opened up about his drug addiction in 2014, telling Entertainment Weekly: “I started with drugs around the same time that we all did, around eleven.
“I mean it’s just what you did, it’s just what everybody did.”
Cher’s representatives did not immediately respond to the Daily Express’ request for comment.
