Marieangela King, the separated wife of Cher’s 48-year-old son, Elijah Blue Allman, has spoken out after his alleged overdose this past weekend.

On Sunday, TMZ reported that Elijah was taken to the hospital following an overdose in Joshua Tree, California, the previous day. The report did not specify which substances he had used but indicated he was “fortunate to have survived.”

King, who filed for divorce from Elijah in April, released a statement to People on Sunday addressing his reported overdose.

“Although Elijah has dealt with personal difficulties previously, his steadfast dedication to sobriety and his devotion to his loved ones have been unchanging,” King said.

“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,” she continued about the musician. “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.”

King added, “I want to state, without hesitation, that I will always root for him. My support is steadfast and comes from a place of deep respect for the person he is and the resilience he continues to show.”

Elijah and King were married for 11 years before she filed for divorce. She cited irreconcilable differences in the court documents and listed their date of separation as March 31, 2025.

King also requested $6K per month in temporary spousal support, per the documents, and the family vehicle: a 2017 Toyota Prius.

“We had a beautiful 13-year journey, filled with memories I’ll always cherish,” she told People in a statement after her divorce filing. “I know we’ll remain friends, and Elijah will always hold a special place in my heart.”

The split occurred after Cher, 79, filed for conservatorship over Elijah in 2023 and claimed he could not “substantially manage his own financial resources” because of “severe mental health and substance abuse issues.”

The “Believe” singer also claimed that King was a bad influence on her son and actively worked against her efforts to get him help.

King, for her part, accused Cher of hiring four men to kidnap Elijah to send him to a rehab facility, which Cher denied.

The Goddess of Pop later dismissed the conservatorship case in September 2024.

Elijah, whose father was the late Southern rockstar Gregg Allman, has dealt with substance issues since childhood.

In 2014, he told Entertainment Tonight that he started using drugs at age 11. He also recalled having “some close calls and some moments of really feeling at the edge of mortality.”

Cher has yet to speak out about Elijah’s reported overdose.

Sources told TMZ Sunday that the superstar is focused on her son’s well-being and is “doing everything she can to get him the help he needs.”
