Cher looked all loved-up as she rang in the New Year with her boyfriend Alexander Edwards and revealed the playful nickname she's chosen for her younger beau.

The 76-year-old singer was overjoyed when her 36-year-old toy boy puckered up to give her a kiss on the cheek as the clock struck midnight and she shared a snap of the moment with her fans.

In the picture, Cher flashed the huge diamond ring Alexander had bought her for Christmas which has caused rumours of an engagement to swirl.

Sharing the photo on Twitter, Cher wrote: "Happy New Year Daddy."

Some people were taken aback by the nickname, with one person replying: "Daddy?? Oh hell naw!"

Another questioned: "mrs edwards?"

"Going to the chapel and she’s gonna get married," penned a third fan, while someone else added: "So happy for you!! My mom also got engaged today. You are one of her idols! So it's extra good luck."

Cher later re-posted the same picture with a different, cryptic caption.

"I posted this cause his nails are so cool," she wrote.
