Los Angeles, Dec 16 : Singer Cher says it's "ridiculous" how her partner came into her life when she wasn't looking for a relationship. The 'Believe' hitmaker, 77, was not looking for love when the 37-year-old music executive came into her life, reports femalefirst.co.uk. She told Parade magazine: "It took me completely by surprise. I mean, it was ridiculous. I wasn't looking for it at all. It just happened." She was blown away when her partner presented her with a diamond ring last Christmas. Cher said: "Christmas morning, he gave me a bag and it had these beautiful handmade books and a beautiful pen-just amazing! "And then he went, 'Oh, wait, I forgot this one.' And I opened it up and there was the most amazing diamond ring I'ye ever seen." Cher recently said she has a 'great' time with A.E. However, the 'Turn Back Time' hitmaker admitted their 40-year age gap is sometimes highlighted in their discussions. She said: 'Sometimes I'm talking to him and he has no idea who I'm talking about. The other day, I said, 'Do you know who, I don't know, (1940s Hollywood star) Clark Gable, (is)'? Somebody said, 'Yes, of course,' but most of my references' He'll look at me and go, 'I wasn't born yet.'" /IANS
