Cher gives marriage ultimatum to boy-toy Alexander 'AE' Edwards

Cher has expressed her desire to marry Alexander 'AE' Edwards.

According to Radar Online, the actress and singer only wants one thing before she turns 80 - to make it official with her four decades-younger boytoy.

An insider told the outlet, "Right now she's telling him how she'd love to get married on or before her 80th birthday, which would be a perfect way to celebrate her milestone. She can merge their lives as one a lot easier once they're man and wife."

The sources note that the music producer has "managed to wriggle out of the marriage conversation ever since it came up."

Adding, "If Cher had gotten her way, they'd have eloped right at the start, but he's wanted to pump the brakes and told her there was no need to formalize things."

"If he doesn't step up to the plate and get married, she'll think very seriously about putting an end to his gravy train. And that's one sure way to get his attention," the source said.

Despite warning from her inner circle about Alexander's motives, sources claim, "She tells everyone that this relationship is the real deal, the haters can say what they want because Alex isn't going anywhere."

It is pertinent to mention that representatives for Cher have insisted it's not true that she's pushing for marriage, but insiders stress that the singer is not willing to give her boytoy any choice, the outlet reported.
