Cher’s Son, Elijah Blue Allman, Arrested at New Hampshire Prep School
Elijah Blue Allman, the son of music icon Cher and the late Greg Allman, was arrested Friday night at St. Paul’s School in Concord, New Hampshire, following reports of a disturbance. The incident has brought renewed attention to Allman’s ongoing struggles.
Details of the Arrest
According to the Concord Police Department, officers responded to a report of an unwanted guest at the elite prep school just before 7 PM local time. Allman was reportedly “causing a disturbance and acting belligerently” in the dining hall. He was booked into the Merrimack County Jail and charged with two counts of simple assault and one count each of criminal trespass, criminal threatening, and disorderly conduct. He was later released on personal recognizance, pending a future arraignment date.
A History of Challenges
This arrest is the latest in a series of public struggles for Allman. In June 2025, he was rushed to the hospital from his home during an overdose, with authorities finding drugs at the residence. This incident occurred shortly after his wife, Marieangela King, filed for divorce after 13 years of marriage. King had previously accused Cher of orchestrating an alleged kidnapping of Allman in 2022, allegations Cher denied.
Legal Battles and Conservatorship Attempts
In December 2023, Cher filed for a temporary conservatorship over her son, citing his inability to manage his financial resources due to severe mental health and substance abuse issues. She also alleged that King was blocking Allman from receiving necessary treatment. However, Cher dismissed the case later in 2024.
No Known Connection to the School
Authorities have stated that Allman has no known association with St. Paul’s School, leaving the reason for his presence there unclear.
