Usher with his boys Usher Raymond V & Naviyd Ely Raymond.
R&B singer Usher Raymond received a phone call on Monday, that is every parent's worst nightmare. His five year old son, Usher Raymond V was playing in a residential pool, when he went to get a toy from the pool's drain and his arm reportedly got stuck. His Aunt, who was watching the tot at the time, frantically tried to free him but was unsuccessfully. Two audio-visual contractors who were doing work at the house quickly came to help after hearing screams for help, and were able to free him, and administered CPR. While Usher Raymond V was breathing and responsive after CPR, shortly after he was rushed to the hospital and immediately put in ICU. Doctors are reporting that thankfully, the little one will be ok, and is recovering well.
On Tuesday, Usher's ex-wife Tameka Foster hurriedly requested an emergency custody hearing requesting temporary sole custody of the couple's two small children. Tameka claims that Usher is not around, and is busy traveling for most of the time and is usually not offering the primary care and attention that the kids need. She also claims that those Usher has recruited to care for the children (which consists of close friends and family) lack due diligence. An official hearing date has not been set yet.
The couple have been in an ongoing battle for custody of the kids, and it's reported that this is not the first time that Tameka has raised concern about the children being in Usher's Aunt's care. This incident might just be the last straw in the case.
We're extremely happy to hear that the baby is doing well, and will be alright, however it looks like Usher's troubles are about to take a turn for the worst with this sticky custody battle.
