Elijah Blue Allman Has Suffered With Personal Challenges in the Past
Elijah Blue Allman and his estranged wife, Marieangela King, married in 2013.
The singer, who is also the son of Cher's late husband Greg Allman, has suffered with some personal issues in recent months.
In June 2025, he was rushed to a medical facility in California where police officers said he was behaving erratically.
“While it is true that Elijah has faced personal challenges in the past, one constant has been his unwavering commitment to sobriety and his loyalty to those he loves,” his estranged wife, Marieangela King Allman, told People in a statement at the time.
“Like many, he continues to confront his inner struggles — but it is important to recognize that he does so from a place of strength, not defeat. Despite the assumptions that often color how his journey is portrayed, the reality is that Elijah remains grounded, focused and deeply committed to living with integrity and purpose," she said.

Marieangela filed for divorce from her estranged husband in April 2025 after 11 years of marriage.
According to People, law enforcement officials "located drugs inside the home" where Elijah was discovered. He was then "transported to the hospital."
Cher, 79, filed for a temporary conservatorship over her son's estate in December 2023, following his alleged substance abuse. However, the pop music icon decided to voluntarily drop her petition for conservatorship in September 2024.
