Tameka Raymond is reportedly upset with her ex-husband, singer Usher Raymond, for allegedly using her son Kile Glover’s death to delay their contentious child custody hearing.
As I told you previously, Usher only visited 11-year-old Kile Glover “once” in the 3 weeks he stayed in ICU at a local children’s hospital. Kile died of traumatic brain injuries sustained in a boating accident on Lake Lanier. Family members were upset that the media continued to describe Kile as Usher’s “stepson” when Usher wasn’t in Kile’s life after his divorce from Tameka.
According to TMZ.com, Usher “blew off” Kile’s funeral in Atlanta last Friday. But a credible source informed Sandrarose.com that Usher was indeed in attendance — although he wasn’t seen in the funeral procession after the service.
From TMZ.com:
Tameka Foster’s lawyer has filed new documents in the couple’s bitter child custody war … slamming Usher … who asked the court to delay the next hearing in light of the death of Tameka’s son, Kile, who was killed in a jet ski accident.
In his request, Usher claims he’s worried the hearing would cause “unnecessary stress and strain” for both himself, Tameka and their two minor children “in the immediate wake of this tragedy.”
Usher also claims Tameka would get an unfair advantage in the hearing because the court would not want to rule against a woman who is still grieving the death of her son. Usher fears he could lose custody of the children and believes it would be unfair to him.
But Tameka claims Usher is full of crap … and in docs of her own, insists U’s claims of suffering “stress and strain” are “BOGUS.”
In fact, Tameka claims Usher didn’t care about her son at all in his final days — even though Usher regarded him as a son back when they were married.
“[Usher] visited Kile in the hospital only once” during his 15 days on life support … Tameka claims.
She also claims she had begged Usher to tweet a message about her son, “Please pray for Kile” … but he refused. Instead, Tameka claims, Usher’s next tweet was a photo of his own breakfast with the caption, “Breakfast of Champions.”

damn..
Well damn….
I doubt he was at the funeral…wasn’t that the same day he was chopping it up with Maxwell in NYC…and if he was there you know TMZ would have had a pic…
Hmm I said my piece in the post downstairs
Wow! they are back at it? Somehow, I thought the death would have shown them a better way. Sandra that pic of Usher. LMAO!!!
**florida evans voice** DAMN DAMN DAMN!!! Maneka is up to her old ways smdh… LIttle tiny baby Jesus please
S/N @bad I really luh yo pic!
Dreadful (in Dwights Voice)
Straight from the A has a different take…the only ones who know the real truth are Usher and Tameka…the ‘sources’ are just folks trying to get a check by any means necessary
I thought Kile died of heart failure
I refuse to beleive that man would not attend the funeral, that sounds like a croc of poop.
i really wanna believe that usher was at the funeral…i mean come on… i would think he stayed back since he is a “star” and didnt want unnecessary attention
Ushers request to postpone a hearing isnt unreasonable…if it was me id still inconsolable have just lost a chile

Tameka is a nut case. She could probably get a check from the state. She was really banking on Kile’s death to get Usher to love her again wasn’t she? I’m sure Kile’s dad was there for him. That is what matters. Usher probably saw her getting attached and decided to keep his distance. How could she ask him to send out a tweet about Kile? How do you even open your mouth to say such a thing? Did she ask Kile’s father to do that?
wasn’t that the same day he was chopping it up with Maxwell in NYC
The tea says he was at the funeral but didnt speak or offer any condolences. For shame.
Wow
This is silly. They really need to grow up!!
Are you fuc&ing kidding me?!!! This is just plain madness in it’s rarest of forms. Your son is on LIFE SUPPORT and you’re worried about someone sending a “tweet” for prayers?!! GTFOOH with that mess, both parties really need to grow the hell up!! The little boy is gone (less than a month) and the war is back on again for MONEY. Very shallow and sad on so many levels………if this is in fact true, the children need to be removed from the custody of BOTH “PARENTS” until they can get their sh%t together!!! Sorry A$SES!!!!
Usher also claims Tameka would get an unfair advantage in the hearing because the court would not want to rule against a woman who is still grieving the death of her son. Usher fears he could lose custody of the children and believes it would be unfair to him.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
PLEASE BELIEVE THIS IS THE REAL REASON. I DONT KNOW TAMEKA AND DONT KNOW USHER. I ONLY KNOW WHAT THEY HAVE CHOSEN TO SHOW US.
USHER IS SNEAKY. THAT’S MY CONCLUSION.
#DOUCHEBAG
So you mean to tell me after all of this they can’t sit down like empathetic adults and agree to joint custody?! I agree, the media constantly referring to Kile as Usher’s stepson when he was allegedly not in his life after the divorce was careless, but now to pick up right where y’all left off after the tragedy, working towards taking these kids from one parent is just hopeless. Let’s be real here, what kind of 24/7 parent is Usher going to be as a music artist? Why can’t they take care of these children together, what’s the problem?! Stop this sh!t already.

I agree Ms. Fashion, but I also believe Tameeka has her ways too, but in this case, the mess with Usher just might be true
Was his real FATHER around? That’s all that matters and seems they should postpone that custody hearing and give Tameka time to not stress that in the wake of her childs death.
Over it
The stuff people run with
I want no parts of this here topic. No parts
I don’t see the big deal. I have been divorced for 4 years and I am remarried. I don’t have any contact with my “ex” step children at all. It would have been too much drama and obviously they had post marital drama as well so why would he remain in his “ex” step kids life. That child had a mother and a father
San says:

but honestly if I had bad blood with my ex, and he was trully not active in Kiles life, I would be ticked too, because the media really made it seem like usher was a major part of this childs life
_____________
They say the real father was around but either way, I think both parties have damn fault in the non sense. I think usher is a AZZ for real and Tameeka been an azz, but the fact still remains she lost a child, so I couldn’t even imagine what she is mentally going through.
Its all about money

I can relate to that ticked part because I never did understand why they kept saying his stepson and never referencing his real father.
Im tired of both of them
I will say this. Just general. It is important to really love, admire, and respect who you are with. ESPECIALLY when kids are involved. Be careful who you bring in your kids space. Kids need stability. I don’t believe just because you divorce you should cease contact with the kids. I got more to say, but I don’t like this subject.
Exactly San that would rub me the wrong way
i thought this situation would improve in light of what happened, but i guess not #sad

Because without the Usher connection no one would care really. Especially not the media.
OutsidetheBox says:
I’ll say this, and not in Usher’s defense. Why was he expected to be heart broken and beat up about Kile Glover? I didn’t expect he would be so involved in any of this. I didn’t like how the media kept making a deal of his step son dying but barely acknowledged Ryan Glover either. Usher played the part he should have, none. Sure, he knew the lil guy and will have to be there as his sons adjust and deal with the loss of a brother they saw quite often, but that’s where it ends.
Kile was not his son. People were mad cuz Usher was the one name alongside tameka in reports (kile died), now they’re mad cuz he didn’t go to the hospital enough or show enough support. How about he didn’t want to step on the real father’s toes and just intrude? He’s no longer a fixture in tameka’s life and have no reason to be right at her side about another man’s son.

I think she has her flaws too. Like WE ALL DO. But he knew that woman’s flaws. So he should be mad with himself. To me Usher, tries to do whatever it is to please the woman he with at the time. He trying to erase that Tameka never happened. But it did. BECAUSE OF YOU NICCAH!!
Full custody??? C’MON!!! For what???? If I was the woman with Usher, I would have a talk with him. You don’t do that to a mother unless she is deemed unfit. Last I checked, Tameka has not be proven to be so.

I disagree. Being a step parent isn’t like a light switch you turn on and off, once you divorce.
@ bnatural
“Supposedly” she got tired of K Michelle going in on Toya so she said something and got in K face and K hit her and they started fighting..
But like I said I don’t believe that
@Trend I read the downstairs post. this is SOO SOO Messy & such a damn shame if its true
I don’t feel any kind of bad for Usher. he married her. he chose to haven’t one but TWo kids with her. at the end of the day he is the start so of course Tameka gets the bad end of the stick. however, she didn’t go through a messy child case battle with her ex so usher is at fault in some way shape or form!
I usually think Usher is a messy #stuntqueen but… I kind of agree with him on this one. What judge with a heart is going to take away custody from a woman who just lost a child is such a tragic accident? I know judges are supposed to be impartial but hell they’re still human. The fact that they’re still going at it over the kids and the house is BOGUS. It seems like the death of a child would have but some things in perspective for the both of them…

***Not one but two ** star.. chile the auto correct. Forgive me
@trend I don’t understand why she needs full custody though? that will always seem selfish to me. If the other parent isn’t abusive or neglectful you shouldn’t try to take away their right to parent.. they can come to some sort of agreement, even if she gets the kids more or something but damn FULL Custody?!?! Chile Boo!
It shows lack of maturnal instinct and emotion on Tameka’s part if she’s ready to go full force so soon after Kile’s death. Regardless of the reason Usher asked for a delay, all Tameka should be worried about is helping her other children cope with the magnitude of what just happened.
I do NOT believe this story

Yep!!!! Everybody is missing this fact. Her ex did not do this to her. Usher is not fooling me. I can spot a deceiver a mile away. His reputation is not so reputable at all. Trying to make it look like Tameka is so damn crazy. Look in the mirror sweetheart.

She will be helping her kids with this for the rest of their lives. I don’t know her reasoning. But perhaps she wants this settled so she can go on. I just remember that we don’t know everything and we mostly speculate.
damn, she talking shyt again already???? i hope you’re wrong about this post SR cause i see all types of foolery in it.
– USHER WAS AT THE FUNERAL. my hubby saw him with his own eyes.
– one minute they’re mad about usher NOT tweeting but the next minute they’re mad cause he’s getting all the media shine? maybe he backed off because the media associated him too much with kyle.
– who was worrying about usher not coming to the hospital to see a brain-dead child? he could not speak or interact with the child and he is no longer tameka’s husband. hospital and bedside time should be reserved for the family. usher has his own kids to take care of.
– he SHOULD be low-key at the funeral. did she want him to sing or dance? why should he be in the processional, limo, or anything else? he isn’t family.
– and why aren’t they mentioning the jet, which had to be expensive, along with the concessions he supposedly made early on after kile was hospitalized?
i’m not going to believe tameka can be this sorry. she just buried her son.

i don’t see anywhere where usher filed first. all i see is tameka make the inital filing and he filed a response. i certainly don’t believe the story above though. however, when you are a celebrity (or you want to be with one), you have to take the shyt with the sugar.
if you want to be high profile, you have to deal with the praise and criticism and promotion and misinformation that comes with it. your PR people should correct any misinformation.
if she’s reading blogs all day, she will never be happy. despite the backlash from ALL of his fans AND his mother, he married her and gave her two paychecks. why does she give two fuggs what people think?
I’m not sure what to believe. I do know that I will continue to pray for Tameka, Ryan AND Usher during this time. I know sometimes it happens but nobody should have bury their child and I couldn’t imagine what she is going through. As for Usher he was around that little boy for years and when people divorce/break up it doesn’t mean your feelings for the innocent children die. I’m sure he was hurt about this as well. Hopefully they will get it together and can agree to split custody for the childrens sake.
Know I’m late but to imply that a mother is banking on her child’s death for the love of a man is the extremely asinine.

I totally agree. I’m no fan of Tameka, but I think User did milk the public’s sympathy knowing full well that he was not around for anything involving that child during thi ordeal. But of course Tameka is hated so even if she is spilling truth everyone that hates her and User stans will shout her down.
I think Tameka is a very bitter person! I feel like her family were quick to tell them not to bring USHER Up about the son because he wasnt the father….so why is she upset that he didnt want to post a Tweet about it! Usher probably isnt an angel but really
Oh so let me get this straight, less than 2 weeks after she’s buried her child people are already running to jump back down her throat? Smmfh
1st: Sources can’t always be trusted, period. Don’t believe everything you read
2nd: I can actually understand her want to have the case to go on. She just lost 1 child, I’m pretty sure she isn’t trying to sit around in limbo figuring out what’s going to happen with her youngest 2. Get that shit out the way and then she can grieve, live and do what she has to do
3rd: I’m willing to bet these “sources” are straight out of Usher’s camp
But, whatever
EXACTLY @Ms. Everything!!! I think we’re losing sight of what it is that she’s “fighting” for here! Her children. She just lost one, I doubt she’d sit on her hands and watch two more get snatched from her. If I’m not mistaken, it was the GLOVER family that was upset about Usher’s name being attached (according to the post), not Tameka. C’mon, she still has his last name.
