Cher claimed that she considered suicide during her marriage to Sonny Bono.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, the 78-year-old music diva released the first installment of her candid self-titled memoir, detailing her “loveless marriage” to her musical collaborator.<\/p>\n\n\n

In the book, Cher discussed how she considered jumping from a Las Vegas hotel balcony to escape her spouse in 1972, stating that she felt “trapped” since he controlled every part of her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I was dizzy with loneliness,” she explained. “I saw how easy it would be to step over the edge and simply disappear.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The If I Could Turn Back Time hitmaker confessed that she felt “defeated” that night and didn’t see any other way out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For a few crazy minutes I couldn’t imagine any other option,” the movie star wrote. “I did this five or six times, and each time I’d think about (their child) Chaz, about my mother (Georgia), about my sister (Georganne), about everybody and how things like this could make people who look up to me feel that it’s a viable situation and I would step back inside.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Cher later had an epiphany and wrote, “I don’t need to jump off. “I can just leave him.”<\/p>\n\n\n

The Believe hitmaker reportedly said that Sonny was so jealous that he wouldn’t let her wear perfume and took complete control of her career and finances, even refusing to let her open her own bank account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also said that Sonny had informed her that he “seriously considered” killing her near the end of their marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cher and Sonny had an unofficial wedding in 1964 and married officially in 1969. They eventually filed for divorce in 1974, and after a contentious custody fight over their one child, Chaz, they split in 1975.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
