"Elijah is entitled to regular distributions from a trust established by his father for his benefit, but given his ongoing mental health and substance abuse issues, Petitioner is concerned that 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," the papers read.

"[Cher] loves Elijah immensely and has always acted with his best interests in mind," the message added.

However, the mom-of-two claimed the kidnapping rumors were "not true."
