Cher reveals she was madly in love with Val Kilmer – and he was the only man to break up with her

If only she could turn back time.

Cher has revealed that actor Val Kilmer was the only celebrity to ever break up with her.

During a performance at SiriusXM’s “The Howard Stern Show” this week, the legendary singer opened up about her past romances.

At one point, Stern asked the “Strong Enough” hitmaker, 78, if the men in her life “expect fabulous sex” from her given her icon status, to which she replied, “Yes, and they get it.”

“You could tell by the reaction,” she added, to which Stern asked, “Who would ever leave you?”

“Get men, get men,” the “Believe” singer said. “Look, I was madly in love with Val Kilmer and he left.”

Cher, whose real name is Cherilyn Sarkisian, dated the “Top Secret” actor from 1982 to 1984.

Kilmer, now 64, was 13 years younger than Cher – which was a big topic of discussion at the time.

When asked why Kilmer said it ended their relationship, the “If I Could Turn Back Time” hitmaker said “he was really young.”

“Because sometimes you’re only meant to be with someone for so long,” she told Stern.

It’s not the first time Cher has opened up about her strong feelings for Kilmer, revealing in 2021 that the exes met at her birthday party in the 1980s.

“I met him at a birthday party my friend threw for me. She said, ‘I invited this guy, and I think either you or my friend who’s an editor will like him,'” she said at the time .

“We became friends because we were constantly laughing at the same things. He would sleep over and it was just a friendship (at first.) It took a long time. Well, I don’t think very long.”

The singer said the couple’s age difference “was a bigger deal back then.”

Elsewhere, Cher said she reached out to Kilmer after watching his 2021 documentary, “Val.”

“I said, ‘Valus Maximus, I’m sorry if I did anything to upset you or hurt your feelings. I love you and your documentary was everything… I love the things that pissed me off, the things that made me hysterical, amazed, hurt, amazed, etc. You are brave and beyond brilliant, Ethel,” she said, referring to their nicknames for each other.

“He is a true artist and renaissance man. He was sick and it didn’t stop him. He created an extension of his art and his life.”

“See what he created and even the things he let you see that nobody would let you see. Even the worst things he wanted to include in the documentary because he wanted to show you who he was,” she added.
