Usher Files For Divorce
Usher has filed for divorce from his wife of almost two years, Tameka Foster Raymond. According to TMZ, Usher filed in Fulton County, Georgia, on Friday, June 12th. Usher and Tameka have two children, ages 18 months and 6 months. No news on whether or not the couple has a prenuptial agreement. The bad news for Tameka is that Georgia is an equitable property state, and given that the marriage lasted less than two years, it is unlikely she is going to walk away with much as far as marital assets. The good news is they have two really young children, so assuming she is the children’s primary physical custodian, she will be collecting child support for years to come. However, under the Georgia child support statute, once you earn $360,000 a year the presumptive amount of child support levels out. So assuming no other expenses, such as a nanny, Usher’s presumptive child support for two children is only $3,066.00 per month. Not exactly enough to support a lifestyle of the rich and famous.
