Usher and his wife Tameka Foster have reportedly called it quits.


In Touch Weekly is reporting that the couple has separated after nearly two years of marriage. “The Grammy winner has been living apart from his wife for nearly a year after almost two years of marriage,” an insider tells the magazine. “Usher’s primary concern is for his children. He is a great father and just wants to do what is right for them.”

The divorce papers were filed in Atlanta on Thursday morning (June 11), according to In Touch.

The couple got married in the summer of 2007. Foster was the stylist for Usher. They have two sons together, Usher Raymond V, 18 months, and Naviyd, 6 months.

No official confirmation of their separation has been made at this time.


In a recent interview with Billboard, hit-maker Pharrell Williams talked up Usher's forthcoming 'Monster' LP:

The beatmaker divulged that Usher has chosen a new direction with his latest project.

"The Usher album is crazy. His album is the review of the mind of a monster," said Pharrell.

"He's somewhere else right now...like a whole different kind of R&B," he added. "Its really great, its super edgy. He's taken alot of time to really sit and study and we really built something that is like...it's just...it's mean.

Pharrell is also working on Rihanna's upcoming album as well forthcoming projects from Shakira, Incubus, The Clipse and N.E.R.D.
