www.mediatakeout.com - 5th Sep 2008
Usher : Yesterday the streets were buzzing with a rumor that R&B singer
Usher had separated from his wife Tameka Foster. Well, according to MediaTakeOut.com's extremely well placed source, the rumor is 100% untrue.
The insider told MediaTakeOut.com, "
Usher and Tameka are still together and are happier than ever - and anyone that knows them can attest to it. There are a lot of hate-filled people out there who want to see their marriage fail, but it's stronger than ever."
And the insider had some more good news to report, they confirmed what MediaTakeOut.com reported months ago - that Tameka is currently pregnant with the couples second child together. The insider added, "Everyone's ecstatic about the new addition to their family."
You need more proof that the Raymond's are still together. Well yesterday a number of MediaTakeOut.com spies spotted Tameka cheering on her husband as he performed in New York at the NFL Kick-Off Pre Show. And according to our snoops,
Usher and Tameka were laughing and joking around with each both before and after the set.
Now that doesn't seem like a couple in trouble, does it.
