Cher‘s got some new bling that she wishes her late mom could see. The hitmaker sparked engagement rumors on Christmas Day after she showed off a massive diamond ring from her boyfriend, Alexander “AE” Edwards.

“THERE R NO WORDS, ALEXANDER, A.E,” Cher, 76, tweeted on Sunday, December 25, alongside a photo of the stunning pear-shaped sparkler. The rock was finished with a diamond band and glistened against the light from the “Believe” singer’s camera. Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro, told Us Weekly that the piece seems to be about six carats with an estimated value of $250,000.

Cher and Edwards were spotted together for the first time on November 2, holding hands at the West Hollywood hotspot Craig’s. The sighting prompted chatter on social media, with fans criticizing the couple’s age difference.

“Haven’t You Got Anything Else 2 Do⁉️,” the “After All” artist tweeted on November 6 in response to the backlash. “Let Me Explain… I DONT GIVE A [F–K] WHAT ANYONE THINKS.”

A source echoed similar sentiments to Us Weekly at the time, sharing: “Cher knows full well that
