For those unaware, Cher is coming out with a memoir, aptly titled \u201cCher: The Memoir (Part One).\u201d<\/p>\n
For those also unaware, Cher now says that her former husband thought about killing her at one point.<\/p>\n

They released the iconic duet \u201cI Got You Babe,\u201d they co-starred on the show The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour, they were a VERY big deal at the time.<\/p>\n
But they weren\u2019t entirely happy back then. At all.<\/p>\n
In her book, Cher details a stint in Las Vegas at the Sahara Hotel in October 1972 \u2026 when she told her husband she wanted to sleep with Bill, a guitarist in their band.<\/p>\nCher poses during a photocall ahead of the Balmain show as part of the Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Spring\/Summer 2024, in Paris on September 27, 2023.

\u201cThe silence was deafening. Then [Sonny] said, \u2018How long do you think you\u2019ll need?\u2019\u201d Cher writes.<\/p>\n
\u201cTwo hours,\u201d she replied, prompting Bono to leave the room and Cher to break down in tears.<\/p>\n
The couple spouses eventually agree to break up, but agreed that Cher would continue living with Bono during the week so as to not destroy their public image.<\/p>\n
Crazy, right?<\/p>\nCher performs during Victoria\u2019s Secret Fashion Show at Duggal Greenhouse at the Brooklyn Navy Yard in Brooklyn, New York on October 15, 2024.

\u201cYou know, after you went off with Bill that night at the Sahara, I seriously thought about throwing you off our balcony.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe laughed a little at that and so did I. It was crazy that he was telling me,\u201d Cher writes, adding that she responded by saying \u201cthere would have been no need to push me because I was gonna jump!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Cher, Bono even explained that he would \u201cplead insanity\u201d after committing this deed \u201cand get seven years in jail before they released me. Then I\u2019d get a book deal and my own show.\u201d<\/p>\n
It sounds as if Bono really did think this through.<\/p>\nCher arrives for the 2022 Council of Fashion Designers of America, Inc.

\u201cI don\u2019t think for a minute that Sonny would have actually pushed me off the balcony, but I\u2019m sure it crossed his mind, and he knew that jumping off had also crossed mine. What else could we do but laugh?\u201d<\/p>\n
Sonny and Cher met when she was just 16 and he was 27. They were married from 1964 to 1975.<\/p>\n
The former, who Cher says was unfaithful to her during their marriage, died in 1998 following a skiing accident.<\/p>\n
