Cher's Son Elijah Blue Allman Enters Treatment While Fighting Conservatorship
Cher's son Elijah Blue Allman is checking into a residential treatment facility while fighting his mother's attempt to put him under a conservatorship. This comes after he was arrested twice in New Hampshire and placed in what Cher called a locked psychiatric facility.
Cher's son Elijah Blue Allman is entering a residential treatment facility as he opposes his famous mother's bid to control his finances through a conservatorship, according to court documents.
The 47-year-old musician was arrested twice recently in New Hampshire, which led to him being placed in what Cher described as a locked psychiatric facility. Cher called her son's situation "dire" in court papers.
Cher is asking a judge to supervise payments from Allman's trust fund. A conservatorship would give her legal power to make decisions about his money and potentially his medical care.
Allman is fighting back against his mother's request, setting up a family court battle. Conservatorships have faced more scrutiny since Britney Spears successfully ended the one that controlled her life for 13 years.
The treatment facility stay could influence the court's decision about whether Allman needs someone else to manage his affairs.
This case highlights ongoing debates about when family members can legally control an adult's finances and medical decisions. Conservatorships became a hot topic after Britney Spears fought to end hers in 2021.
The court will decide whether to grant Cher's conservatorship request while Allman is in treatment.
