AGING Cher has been brutally blindsided by her own blood as sons Elijah Blue Allman and Chaz Bono are cruelly branding the 77-year-old superstar as a controlling hypocrite - and a monster mom, insiders say.
Cher's 47-year-old son by late rocker Gregg Allman is battling his famous mother in a vicious legal war while sex-swapper Chaz, 54, whose dad was Cher's first hubby, Sonny Bono, blames his lifelong emotional troubles on the Moonstruck Oscar winner.
Sources squeal both sons accuse Cher of weaponizing her $360 million fortune to control them and now want to cut all ties with the shattered star.
"Elijah and Chaz think she's a hypocrite and has no business controlling their lives when she can't even manage her own life," spills an insider.
"She was a terrible mother, they'll both attest to that. But Elijah perhaps felt the brunt of it. She shipped him off to boarding school when he was seven. He had no relationship with his father at that time and he felt shut out by his mom."
According to the source, Elijah was allowed home on weekends, but Cher wasn't around, and he would go out with his friends and get in all sorts of trouble and buy drugs.
"She was a horrible influence. All she cared about was her career and men," says the source.
