Cher Breaks Silence on New Gregg Allman Netflix Documentary: “I Watched It and It Was So…”

The newly released Netflix documentary on Southern rock icon Gregg Allman is making waves — and none other than Cher, the legendary singer and Allman’s former wife, has shared her thoughts, sparking an emotional buzz among fans.

Speaking on social media late Thursday night, Cher wrote:
“I watched it and it was so raw, real, and beautiful. I cried, I laughed, I remembered. Gregg was complicated, but God, he was gifted.”

Cher and Gregg Allman’s whirlwind romance in the 1970s was the stuff of rock ‘n’ roll legend — passionate, turbulent, and unforgettable. The pair were married briefly in 1975 and even recorded an album together, Two the Hard Way. Though their marriage didn’t last, Cher has always acknowledged the deep connection they shared and the immense talent Gregg possessed.

The documentary, which dives into Allman’s life both on and off the stage, explores his rise with the Allman Brothers Band, his struggles with addiction, and his journey toward redemption. Featuring rare footage, interviews with surviving bandmates, and intimate recordings, the film offers an unflinching look at a man whose music helped define a generation.

Fans have been reacting strongly to Cher’s heartfelt statement, with many praising her vulnerability and sincerity. One Twitter user wrote: “Hearing Cher talk about Gregg like that just hit me. It made the documentary even more emotional.” Another fan posted: “You can feel the love and pain in her words. This doc is something special.”

Netflix has not released official viewing figures yet, but the documentary is already trending in the Top 10 globally and has been lauded by critics for its emotional depth and archival storytelling.

As the legacy of Gregg Allman continues to inspire, Cher’s tribute serves as a poignant reminder of the man behind the myth — not just a musical titan, but a soul who lived, loved, and left an unforgettable mark.

The Gregg Allman documentary is now streaming exclusively on Netflix.
