According to ajc.com, Usher filed the petition late Friday afternoon in Fulton County Superior Court. A hearing has been set for July 15 in front of Judge Bensonetta Tipton Lane. For whatever reasons, Usher has decided to end his marriage just a month and a half short of what would have been his second wedding anniversary. These days Usher priorities are his children, his new album, titled Monster and his community service projects.

UPDATE: Media reports stating Usher has filed for divorce from his wife are false, according to AJC.com, (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution).
Atlanta-based pop start Usher and his wife, Tameka Foster, have not filed for divorce. The celebrity magazine In Touch, quoting anonymous sources, announced that Usher and his wife had filed divorce papers in Fulton Superior Court Thursday morning, prompting a flood of media inquiries to the clerk’s office. No such filing was found in a check of court records, however. The magazine distributed a news release Thursday promoting an article in its next issue. The release said the couple has had marital problems for almost a year and “the divorce papers were filed in Atlanta this morning.”SOURCE
If true, who didn't see this coming? According to In Touch Weekly, Usher filed for divorce from his wife, Tameka Foster, of nearly 2 years.
Dudes, when your mama tells you that something isn't right with the chick you're seeing, please believe it. Believe it even more when your mother would rather treat herself to a spa day in the Buckhead area of Atlanta instead of attending her son's first wedding ceremony (even if he did call off the wedding) in the Hamptons...and being absent from his second (civil) and third wedding ceremonies as well.

In Touch can exclusively reveal that Usher and his wife, Tameka Foster, are divorcing. “The Grammy winner has been living apart from his wife for nearly a year after almost two years of marriage,” the insider exclusively tells In Touch, adding, “Usher’s primary concern is for his children. He is a great father and just wants to do what is right for them.” The soon-to-be exes have two kids together, Usher Raymond V, 18 months, and Naviyd, 6 months. And the insider says that it’s more than just talk — the divorce papers were filed in Atlanta this morning. The couple has faced problems in the past. In November 2008, In Touch reported that Usher was flirting with girls at a party in Miami, and even asked a model what she was doing afterward.There have been online reports of a separation and impending divorce for quite sometime. BV Buzz columnist Jawn Murray was one of the first to report of the couple's separation late last year. Then earlier this week, tv/radio personality and blogger Egypt, posted a blog on her website stating Usher would be filing for a separation from Tameka this week. Last month, blogger Mrs. Grapevine posted the following on her site:
I have been sitting on this story, trying to figure out if I should post it or not. After three sources have confirmed, I decided to go ahead and post the story. One source is from a well known insider, and when the story breaks, I will give her all her props, but until then let’s just say she’s known for knowing things. The second source came via a direct message this morning from “SM”. The last source was none other than Tom Joyner and the Morning Show…What remains of Usher's marriage to Tameka remains to be seen. But there were signs that the couple were far from being in marital bliss starting with Tameka's botched lipo surgery in Brazil back in February; which her husband reportedly knew nothing about. After that, the couple hasn't been seen 'out and about' again. What we have seen are photos of Usher with his oldest son, Cinco, getting their splish-splash on in Miami Beach, photos of Usher being entertained by a go-go dancer/stripper overseas (and looking as if he was really enjoying it!), numerous photos of Usher not wearing his wedding band that he once flaunted in everyone's face at any given time and most recently photos of him and another woman (who was later identified as bing Def Jam Records product manager Grace Miguel) seen out and about in Beverly Hills and again at one in the morning outside of a hotel.
Word on the street is that Tameka Foster is making plans to divorce Usher, and has hired a publicist to help her image throughout the divorce. We all know once the story breaks, she will be labeled every dirty word in the book, because Usher fans simply hasn’t taken to her. Every since the “plastic surgery incident” the couple has not been seen together in public, and recent pictures of Usher flying solo with his son in Miami is only fueling the rumors.
Dudes, when your mama tells you that something isn't right with the chick you're seeing, please believe it. Believe it even more when your mother would rather treat herself to a spa day in the Buckhead area of Atlanta instead of attending her son's first wedding ceremony (even if he did call off the wedding) in the Hamptons...and being absent from his second (civil) and third wedding ceremonies as well.

it;s about damn time! good riddance to her and the horse she rode in on.
Well good luck to the both of them. I know firsthand how hard divorces can be especially when there are children involved. On the other hand I have to admit that I did see this coming.
If he had listened to his mama from the get go HE would NOT be in this mess now. The ONLY good thing that came from their MARRIAGE are those ADORBALE little boys. I still remember how CUTE little CINCO was on the cover of ESSENCE magazine. TAMEKA is PAST crazy for real. Seems like ALL she does ALL day is SIT up on TWITTER copy and pasting BIBLE SCRIPTURES and QUOTES from IYANLA VANZANT (sp?)!!!!!!
Damn!!
Wow at 1st I was skeptical because they're wasn't any proof like all those other times they were supposedly divorcing or breaking up. Now there are acutall courtpapers. Its real.
Oh well. Shouldve listened to his mama but naaaaaaaaaw he wanted to be a big man. Again oh well. Good luck to him cause he gon need it.
Lawd, Lawd, Lawd UsHer what is u gon do now!
Usher finally came to his senses, married to a woman who has not one but three kids already and thens he adds two more to the litter. not very a smart move for any single person and not to mention the fact that she's much older than him. boy he was totally whipped and now he realizes that, maybe next time he'll make smarter choices like choose a woman with a career that she can actually support herself and kids.
IN THE WORDS OF THE NEW EDITION SONG "IS THIS THE END?":
Mama told me one day it was gonna happen/But she never told me when/She told me it would happen when I was much older/Wish it wouldve happened then.
DID YALL KNOW THAT THIS WILL BE TAMEKA'S SECOND DIVORCE IN TWO YEARS?!!!!!!!???!.......
SHE DIDN'T DIVORCE HER FIRST HUSBAND UNTIL AFTER SHE GOT PREGNANT WITH HER AND USHER'S FIRST CHILD.......
MATTER OF FACT SHE HAD ACCEPTED USHER'S PROPOSAL *BEFORE* HER *FIRST* DIVORCE WAS FINAL!!!......
DANG!!!! NOW SHE'S TWO FOR TWO IN DIVORCES WITH 5 CHILDREN FROM THREE DIFFERENT MEN!.............
Woooooow. I had no idea.
Surprise, surprise - he knocked her up first, then married her, and it didn't work out. Now we can sit and wait for divorces of the rest of the Hollywood couples who decided a baby was trendy, but marriage was not. It's amazingly and incredibly selfish. Those poor, poor kids.

BUT SHE HAVE NO CHOSE USHER DONT NEED HER DONT GIVE A DAME ABOUT HER ANY MORE HE JUST WONT CUSTENY FOR HIS SONS. HE MOIVED ON HIS DATING A 42 YEARS OLD. THE IS USHER NEED TO GO BACK TO HIS EX THEY ARE MET TO BE IN THE FRIST PLACE. SHE STILL SINGLE AND NOT MARRYED YET HE BETTER HURRY UP.
I'm truly sad to hear they aren't working out. I wish people wouldn't rush into marriage so fast.
