Hey there, friends. In an exclusive and heartfelt sit-down with Closer Weekly, Chaz Bono is spilling all the tea about his dynamic relationship with his iconic mom, Cher. Now, you know Cher—this legendary pop diva who’s been around for decades, still rocking it at 71. But here’s the kicker: even though Chaz is 48 years old, he still finds himself in moments where his mom treats him like her little kid. “I’m always going to be her kid,” Chaz jokes with a laugh. “But she does say those things where I’m like, ‘OK, I’m 48, but thank you.’” It’s one of those moments that reminds us all—no matter how famous or powerful someone is, they’re still human at the end of the day.
Now, let’s dive deeper. While Cher may have a reputation for being overprotective, Chaz reveals that their bond is evolving as time goes on. “She’s gotten older,” he shares candidly, “and now she depends on me for things.” Think about it—despite Cher’s dazzling fame, fortune, and flamboyant style, she’s just like the rest of us when it comes down to it. “She’s a very down-to-earth person,” Chaz insists, giving us a glimpse into the real Cher, away from the spotlight. This evolution in their relationship highlights a beautiful shift where roles can change, and mutual support becomes the foundation of their bond.
Cher, the Ultimate Fan
Let’s talk about Cher’s unwavering support for her son. Chaz, who has been an aspiring actor since he was just 14, is now shining on the hit show American Horror Story. And guess what? His mom couldn’t be prouder. “She’s a fan of my work,” Chaz beams, his excitement palpable. “She’s been really encouraging and a great, sympathetic ear,” he tells Closer. It’s this kind of support that means the world to Chaz, knowing that his mom has stood by him every step of the way, including during his gender reassignment journey from 2008 to 2010. That’s some serious love and acceptance right there.

Looking Back, Moving Forward
For Chaz, growing up in the spotlight wasn’t always easy. Born as Chastity and raised in the limelight by Cher and dad Sonny Bono on their iconic show, Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour, Chaz admits he doesn’t revisit those old clips. “Generally, transgender people don’t enjoy seeing images of ourselves before our transition,” he explains thoughtfully to Closer. But instead of dwelling on the past, Chaz prefers to focus on the present and the future, celebrating his successes and sharing them with his beloved mom. It’s a testament to his resilience and positivity.
