And the Believe singer, 77, has some advice for women. While appearing on Amelia Dimoldenberg's YouTube series Chicken Shop Date, she was asked what she thought all women should do at least once in their lives.
And Edwards isn't her first younger man. In the 1980s, the If I Could Turn Back Time hitmaker dated Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer and Rob Camilletti – all of whom are more than a decade younger than her.
But despite the obvious success of her current relationship, she didn't enter into it lightly because at the time she felt she should stop dating younger men.
'I told my friends: don't fall in love with a younger man, we're too old. And don't fall in love with text messages. There goes that theory,” she admitted to Dimoldenberg.
The Mamma Mia star met Edwards at Paris Fashion Week and fell in love with him over text messages.
“I was leaving to go to Switzerland and he texted me, 'Where are you going?' I said, 'I'm going to Switzerland. I'm a little tired,' and then he wrote me, 'Well, rest, baby,' with three Y's,” she said.
“And I'm like, 'He doesn't know me well enough to give three Y's to the baby.' I was a little pissed. And then he just started texting me.”
When asked what she likes most about Edwards, the Baby Don't Go singer praised his sense of style.
“I've never dated anyone who was a terrible dresser,” Cher noted. “Alexander is the best dresser.”

But it's not just his sense of style that draws her to Edwards. She explained why she was so in love with him during a December 2022 appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show.
“On paper it's a bit ridiculous, but in real life we get along great,” she said, referring to their 40-year age difference.
“He's amazing, and I don't give men qualities they don't deserve,” she added.
'He's very nice, he's very smart. He's really talented and he's really funny, and I think he's quite handsome.”
