Cher has abandoned her attempt to gain conservatorship of her son.

Despite initially claiming his life would "be at risk" if left to his own devices, the superstar has given up her attempt to take over control of Elijah Blue Allman's affairs, including his finances.

Allman is the son of Cher and late rock star Gregg Allman, who passed away in 2017.

Cher applied for conservatorship in 2023, claiming Allman could not properly take care of himself or "manage his own financial resources" because of his alleged struggles with drug abuse.

"Any funds distributed to Elijah will immediately be spent on drugs, leaving Elijah with no assets to provide for himself, and putting Elijah's life at risk," she wrote in documents proposing the conservatorship.

In a response to his mother's application, Allman said while he had indeed "struggled with addiction and spent money in ways that have not always been the most responsible" in the past, he was now "clean and sober".

"Mr Allman's team successfully defended the bid, resulting in Cher voluntarily dismissing her petition," Allman's lawyers told People magazine.

"This outcome allows the parties to focus on healing and rebuilding their family bond, a process that began during mediation and continues today."

In court, Cher's lawyer Gabrielle Vidal said the singer and her son had "privately resolved this matter" via mediation.
