Cher didn't officially divorce Bono until 1975, but the two officially separated in 1974, after Cher had commenced a two-year relationship with record producer David Geffen. She married rock star Gregg Allman only four days after finalizing her divorce with Bono.

Cher released the first installment of a planned two-part memoir Tuesday, “Cher: The Memoir, Part One,” spanning roughly the first half of the 78-year-old entertainer’s life, with anecdotes about a marriage to Sonny Bono she called “ loveless ” that led her to consider suicide at the height of their television fame in the 1970s.
