TAMEKA'S HISTORY WITH USHER

Tameka shares two sons with Usher who she was married to from 2007 to 2009. Naviyd is the younger one. His older brother, Usher “Cinco” Raymond V is 12.

The brothers live with their father who gained primary custody of them after a 3-year court battle which ended in 2012. Tameka tried to reverse this after a swimming pool accident involving Usher V occurred under Usher’s care the following year. But the judge found no reason to remove primary custody from Usher.

Tameka and Usher’s relationship began to sour towards the end of their marriage. Usher admitted to Oprah Winfrey that he felt lost and just “wanted out.” Somehow he also blamed Tameka for turning them into enemies.

"I really felt like we were friends. She made us enemies in a way that I could never understand," he explained.

Today, Usher and Tameka appear to be at a better place. On Usher’s birthday in October, Tameka greeted him in a birthday post. She also wrote,

“Many don’t realize that it’s always love even when it looks like hate and that you will forever remain in my soul circle..”

Usher celebrated his birthday with their sons. In his IG, he revealed they made tacos together.
