Usher's Wife Had Him Followed By Detectives Before Divorce Filing
June 16 2009, Published 9:52 a.m. ET
It was never a match made in heaven and the revelations in the documents filed in the Usher divorce case show just how badly the singer's relationship with Tameka Foster Raymond had broken down long before he decided to legally end it.
In what can only be described as a legal understatement, the document proclaims: "The marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken. There is no reasonable hope of reconciliation."
Usher - full name Usher Raymond -- is now requesting complete disclosure of all documents his bridge maintained since their Aug. 3, 2007 wedding, and that includes detective reports, voice and video recordings that may be the product of "surveillance or investigation."
Usher also claims that the pair split last July, a mere 11 months after saying "I do."
He's asking the Fulton County (GA) Superior Court to award him joint custody of their two children. Usher and Naviyd.
