Cher’s youngest son, Elijah Blue Allman, was rushed to a California hospital on June 14 after exhibiting erratic behavior linked to a suspected overdose, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department. Deputies found both Elijah (48) and illegal drugs at his Landers, CA, residence. He received immediate medical attention and remains under care.

Medical Emergency Amid Ongoing Struggles

Elijah was found in a distressed state by emergency personnel. Investigators recovered drugs from the scene, and he was transported to a hospital. The investigation into the incident is ongoing, and no official statements have been released by Cher’s or Elijah’s representatives so far.

Estranged Wife Offers Supportive Statement

In an exclusive People interview, estranged wife Marieangela King Allman acknowledged Elijah’s internal battles but emphasized his resilience. She stated:

“He continues to confront his inner struggles … from a place of strength, not defeat.”

She affirmed her support and belief in his ongoing commitment to sobriety and integrity, promising to “always root for him.”

A Complicated History: Addiction, Conservatorship & Custody

Elijah’s hospitalization follows a turbulent period marked by longstanding substance abuse, including using opiates since age 11, and severe mental health challenges. In December 2023, Cher filed for a conservatorship over Elijah’s finances, citing concerns about his ability to manage funds. That bid was withdrawn in September 2024 after a private resolution.

Estranged wife Marieangela previously accused Cher of hiring men to forcibly remove Elijah in 2022 during free therapy efforts—a claim Cher has denied.

Musical Legacy & Public Persona

Known professionally as P. Exeter Blue, Elijah co-founded the industrial metal band Deadsy and gained recognition as a distinctive musician.

Cher once described him as “a really smart, really talented, really strange person” who “marches to his own drummer.” His upbringing and challenges were public—from gruelling custody drama to a conservatorship attempt—heightening the scrutiny of his personal struggles.

What’s Next

  • Medical update: Elijah remains under observation; his current condition is unclear.
  • Investigation: Authorities are still reviewing the overdose.
  • Family recovery efforts: Cher is reportedly focusing on securing help for her son, while Marieangela remains a consistent source of support.
