Cher in March, 2006. Credit: PRPHotos. The pictures of her with her new boyfriend are in this week’s Enquirer
The National Enquirer has a new cover story this week which reads “Cher’s Secret Wedding!” It’s technically accurate according to the information they claim to have, but is misleading because Cher is just said to be planning a wedding with this biker dude who happens to be 24 years younger than her, and hasn’t actually married him yet. So a more accurate title would be “Cher Plans Secret Wedding!” But that’s ok, because the details are juicy enough to make up for the inaccurate title.
Cher met 38 year-old Tim Medvetz through her friend Richard Stark, the designer of Chrome Hearts Jewelery. Medvetz is a 6′5″ tough biker dude with long black hair and one of those half goatee mustache combos. He customizes high end motorcycles and was injured so badly in a motorcycle accident in 2001 that he had to have his back fused together and metal plates put in his skull. The guy was in a wheelchair for 6 months, but he decided to set a goal for himself to climb Mount Everest, and he made it on his second try in 2007. He’s said to drink a lot of whiskey and love fried chicken, but he lifts weight to work it off. Cher’s boyfriend’s story is pretty interesting, and he’s a determined guy but that doesn’t make him marriage material.
Medvetz and Cher have been spotted out together and have traveled together. The Enquirer’s information that they’re planning to get married seems sketchy, though, and could be based on a quote Cher gave that “I could see myself getting married again.” Cher has been married twice and has two children.
The May-December couple spent a night nuzzling at the Foxtail lounge in L.A. on June 13, accompanied by Cher’s close pal, actor Dean Winters, along with Richard Stark and wife Laurie, according to the source.
“Tim was so protective of Cher that everyone assumed he was her bodyguard.”
Their love burst spectacularly in the open when they recently traveled with the Starks to Nashville to see country music legend Merle Haggard.
Cher rented a private jet for the flight and took Tim and her posse to The Bluebird Cafe on June 24.
Next, it was on to Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge, a famous watering hole.
The couple spent the night together in a beautiful suite at The Hermitage Hotel in Nashville, according to a local insider.
[From The National Enquirer, print edition, July 21, 2008]
As for Cher and Medvetz’s plans to marry, the Enquirer says they plan to marry “in a quickie Las Vegas ceremony by the end of the year,” and that Cher is asking him to sign a prenup first to protect her assets. There’s not much detail about either statement and the article focuses more on Medvetz’s background and their courtship.
Cher dated a 22 year-old guy who worked at a bagel shop, Rob Camilletti, for several years in the 80s starting when she was 40. I thought she was married to that guy, but after consulting Wikipedia I see they were just living together. At least the guys are getting older with her. I don’t see her marrying this one, but we’ll have to see.

Ha! Demi isn’t the only one who likes to pick the young tea buds!
I say Go Cher!
-
Excuse me? Why is he not marriage material? Anyone that goes through what he’s been through and comes out on top of Everest sounds like a damn fine bet to me, and perfect for her. Ultimate rock chick, you go, Cher!
And yes, I do like me a bit of tattooed biker dude.
-
geronimo I didn’t say he wasn’t marriage material, I just said that doesn’t make him marriage material, like being so self-determined isn’t a real attribute you bring to a marriage. Maybe I’m wrong but I’ve dated guys like that and they’re kind of into whatever they’re into and not that focused on the relationship/family.
-
I like tattooed bikers too
He sounds like a pretty cool guy & I hope they are happy together.
I understand what you’re getting at CB. Sometimes those guys decide to make make the relationship/ family number one. I’m not saying that Cher will magicly change him, but he might do it on his own. Maybe.
-
Hmmmmm he looks like Ben Stiller in costume.
-
Tim is a real character! He was a big part of Discovery Channel’s Everest: Beyond the Limit series. You can watch the entire climb online, because they had “Sherpa cams” — cameras mounted on the Sherpa guides heads. He is a BIG guy, and could have died up there, because they had a hard time talking him into turning back when it was clear he wouldn’t make it to the summit.
-
Oops. Sorry CB. Wasn’t being snarky Was it the ‘excuse me’ wot done it?
But I disagree, it shows enormous character and strength and resilience - all things that come in handy in a relationship. And Cher’s hardly looking for a stay-at-home staid guy. She’s up for adventure and this guy sounds like he can provide it.
-
In the words of the great Sheryl Crow, “If it makes you happy, it can’t be that bad” Good for her. Ride him hard!
-
Go Cougars!
-
I don’t know why she’d bother to marry him, but if she wants to try him on for size and play with him for however long, I don’t see a thing wrong with it. I was dating a 24 year old at 51, and we really had a great time, even outside the bedroom. Age is a number.
-
I know she has had work done, but damn, she really looks good for her age.
-
He’s a loudmouth, ass-clown. He was on discovery channel climbing Everest and was so conceited and annoying that he nearly got booted by his teammates. So I guess he’s perfect for her.
-
You go, Syko!
-
Cher will slap him down if he needs it, you have fun Cher, and most men 38 would love to be with her, she’s awesome.
-
@ Blackalicious: I second that! Girlfriend must’ve gone and bought herself the fountain of youth or something. She needs to share all of her beauty secrets like, yesterday.
-
I thought that was that douchebag from that show!!
-
Cougars- *twitch* must…not….rant….
-
Cher is too cool.
She needs a younger man because her age may chronologically be 62, but she looks 40.
-
If Cher is happy with this relationship, the let it happen.
-
I think the age difference is disgusting.. But I’m ok with being out on my limb. lol The thought of dating someone as old as if not older than my parents makes me want to vomit.
-
If someone were grossed out by someone marrying someone of a different race they’d be racist…
so does that mean that if someone is disgusted by someone marrying someone of a different age they’re ageist?
I think these two make a pretty appropriate couple! Go Cher!
-
He is 38 which is hardly a child. Can you really see Cher with an old fart-whatever his age? If they are involved, then he is lucky to be sharing her light.
-
She could do better. He sounds like a looser with a capital “L”…she needs to go for a young musician, not a broken biker dude.
-
Aw, I really liked the guy on “Everest” (say it with me now, “Ever-ever-ever-REST-rest-rest).
Even though he was too big and too bull-headed to summit the peak (he really had no business trying to bag Everest, but I find it speaks more to the commericalization of mountain climbing than his character), I found him to be an incredibly charming and endearing person. Good for him, and good for Cher! -
I agree she should just live with the guy for a couple of years first, if it works out then she should marry him. Physically they look perfect for each other, no way does she look older then him.
-
Some of you women are so immature, time to GROW UP!
-
He’s 38. You’d think with all this disgust, he was 18. If the tables were turned, and Cher were 38, people would view it in a different light.
Both are adults way past the stage of youthful indiscretion. Let’em be..
-
whatever, so he’s younger. my real problem is that he’s a jackass. He endangered the lives of like 4 or 5 other people on everest. yeah, sure, he’s determined (he made his second summit attempt with a broken hand and almost fell off of the mountain because he couldn’t descend safely), but while he was cool with the sherpas, he was also an inconsiderate shlub who only cared about his own glory.
BTW, I highly recommend the show he was on, “Everest: Beyond the Limit.” -
He probably has GREAT stories to tell. I like him!
-
her lips look like vienna sausages.
-
The girl is rocking! Respect!
-
I love Cher. She’s so fun and wild.
-
Cher looks awesome! And her man is SEXY! I don’t think she’ll marry him, she’s just having fun. He seems to be a terrific guy and fun for her. He’s definitely a determined person after all he’s been through, to climb Mt. Everest. That’s awesome! You go Cher! I LOVE HER!
-
Cher looks amazing…if you didn’t know her age you would NEVER EVER put her at 62, and she doesn’t looked “pulled”
Go Cher!
-
I would care…but I don’t. I am interested in professors at the university and other educated people. Cher has still not grown up, she never will. She will go to her grave like that. Would love to hear that she went back to school online, under cover and got her degree. She doesn’t realize the investment. You can lose everything material in a streak of bad luck but you cannot ever lose your degree or your education from reading. A gift forever. Can never be taken away.
-
Heey, even her hands dont look old, this b*tch needs to tell me her secret!!! I am willing to pay!!!
-
Just curious as to why we care? Well, I don’t anyway.
-
ok??????????
:?: :?: :?:
-
If she gets pregnant and when the child is 13 and he/she tells the teacher my mom is 75 and my dad is 41. How embarrassing would of that been to him/her. They don’t even think about that???
Losers
-
go cher!!!!! if its true love i say go for it
-
No! No! No! Not THAT Idiot from the Discovery Everest series!? Please tell me you are joking! PLEASE!!!!!!
-
I am a 62 year old male with a 38 year old girlfriend. We have been together four years and growing more in love with each passing day.
I say, “HOORAY! for Cher.” ~ You GO GIRL!
…oh yeah! He’s a very lucky guy!

She looks amazing, not too overdone and she has admitted to lots of procedures. She’s always done her own thing so I like that about her.
