The music executive, 38, gave TMZ an update on his relationship with the 78-year-old music icon following his physical altercation with Travis Scott at a May 23 party at Cannes Film Festival.
When asked if the “Believe” singer was upset with his actions, Edwards said, “Hell nah,” before quoting lyrics from Future and Metro Boomin's "GTA" to ensure things between the pair are all good. “Like Future say, ‘Whatever I’m with, my bitch with it, too,” he added.
The rapper then clarified his vulgar comment, saying, “My woman, but the lyrics are the lyrics.”
Edwards brushed off inquiries of any “wedding bells” ringing soon, but affirmed his romance with Cher is still going strong. “Aye bro, listen, we happy. We’re a happy family,” he told the outlet.

Alexander Edwards and Singer Cher attend the Balmain Womenswear Spring/Summer 2024 show as part of Paris Fashion Week on September 27, 2023 in Paris, FranceCher and Edwards, who’ve been romantically linked since late 2022, were last photographed together at the 2024 amfAR Gala at Cannes, the same day as Edwards and Scott’s fight. Earlier that evening, the couple, who wore matching all-black outfits, had a glamorous date night that was captured on the red carpet, and they weren’t shy about showing off a little PDA for the cameras.
A few days prior, on May 20, the pair rang in Cher’s 78th birthday, with the superstar telling E! News that they "went to a fabulous place" to celebrate her special day. "It was amazing," she said of her experience at the romantic Chateau Romanov residence, adding of her boyfriend, "He was very nice as a host."
Since taking their romance public, Cher has spoken quite fondly of Edwards, despite those concerned about the couple’s 40-year age gap. “Alexander’s got diamond teeth, tattoos, white hair, and he’s way younger. He’s a beautiful man,” the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee told PEOPLE in October 2023.

The legendary performer has no regrets about breaking her rules, though, as she said Edwards is “just so special.”
"No matter what happens, I love being with him,” she added. “He makes me laugh, and we have fun. What I learned is that it’s never too late. If you wrote out all the statistics, you would go, ‘Well, this is doomed.’ But we’ve been together a year, and if it was just a year, it would’ve been worth it. I’ve had the best time.”
