R&B singer, Usher Raymond, is the subject of claims today that he was asked not to attend the funeral of his 11-year-ols stepson, Kile Glover, who died in a tragic jet ski accident in Atlanta, Georgia. Some are stating his ex-wife, Glover's mother, Tameka Foster, blames him for the tragedy that befell her, though he was nowhere near the scene of the accident.

Foster does not understand why this happened and does not appreciate people on social networking sites and message boards claiming it was bad karma. People are being very unkind to her, bringing up her past misdeeds and her adulterous pursuit of Raymond, whom she left her husband to marry.

When Usher and Tameka got together, she was still married to Kile's father, Ryan Glover, who was devastated by the affair. At the time, her husband was very angry over the high profile, adulterous affair and began asking people in the entertainment industry for proof thereof to use in court.

Glover and Foster were divorced shortly after and she wed Raymond, whom she had known for several years, against his mother's wishes. However, their marriage ended in divorce two years later, in a split that was so bitter, the feuding and fighting  over money made the news.

In what was undoubtedly a very sad day for R&B singer Usher and his family, the funeral of his 11-year-old stepson, Kile Glover, from his two-year marriage to Tameka Foster Raymond, took place in Atlanta, Georgia yesterday. Raymond and Foster have two young children, Usher V and Navyid.

Glover was removed from life support after two weeks, as doctors had pronounced him brain dead, due to a traumatic brain injury that stemmed from a jet ski colliding with a inner tube he was floating on at Georgia's Lake Lanier. You could see the pain and anguish on his mother's face, as it is a terrible thing to have to bury a child, especially one so young.

Kile Glover, the 11-year-old stepson of R&B singer, Usher Raymond, has died on July 21, 2012, after being taken off life support in Atlanta, Georgia. Glover is the son of Usher's ex-wife, Tameka Raymond. Two weeks ago Glover sustained a traumatic brain injury on July 8, 2012, after a jet ski collided with the inner tube he was floating on, during an outing at Georgia's Lake Lanier.

Within two days of the accident, doctors pronounced Glover brain dead, which medical science labels an irreversible condition. Placing Glover on life support suspended the death process, but once he was removed from the medical mechanisms, he passed away. The Judiciary Report is not a fan of pulling the plug as the phrase  goes, but that was his family's decision. It's always sad when a child dies.

On July 11, 2012 in the article "New Information Regarding Usher's Stepson Being Pronounced Brain Dead After Tragic Incident" the Judiciary Report stated, "Foster is now faced with the tough decision of leaving her son on life support as long as the hospital and courts will allow or pulling the plug." One week later on July 16, 2012, TMZ stated a source informed them, Usher Raymond's 11-year-old stepson, Kyle Glover, is in peril of being removed from life support, as his mother's health insurance will only cover him for two months. 

Tameka Foster Raymond

Foster would have to devote all her alimony and child support checks to keeping the boy on life support, leaving nothing for herself and her other children and it still would not be enough. TMZ stated she does not view Usher as a viable "financial option." For years, Usher has been supporting Foster's very lavish lifestyle in a $3,000,000 Georgia mansion, with luxury cars, a staff and expensive trips. This is in addition to Foster's many spending sprees on credit cards, in stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue, Louis Vuitton and Chanel. 

Kyle Glover

If Raymond denies Foster the money to keep her child on life support, she is going to hate him for that. She's resorted to violence against Usher for far less. With her back against the wall, she may do a six figure tell-all and paid interviews, as a means of paying her son's medical bills and once again, even that would not be enough to keep him on life support for long.

Usher Raymond's stepson, Kyle Glover, 11, remains brain dead at an Atlanta hospital, after a jet ski accident, police are investigating. His mother, Tameka Foster Raymond, who is the singer's ex-wife, is struggling with the choices she has been presented with - leave her son on life support or pull the plug, due to no brain activity.

Some on social networking sites and in blog feedback sections have been blaming Foster for the accident, stating she was out of town and left her underage son from another marriage, unattended as he was not bringing in big child support checks like the two children she has with millionaire singer Usher (Usher V and Navyid).

More information has been released on the tragic accident that left singer Usher Raymond's 11-year-old stepson, Kyle Glover, brain dead. Raymond was married to Glover's mother Tameka Foster for two years (2007-2009).  According to MTV, a family friend, Jeffrey S. Hubbard, 36, has been named as the individual operating the jet ski that hit Glover and a 15-year-old girl, who were being towed by a boat on Georgia's Lake Lanier.

The young girl suffered a broken arm and sustained a cut on the head, but has since been treated and released. As with any head injury, she will have to be monitored to check for any possible long term side effects. What a terrible tragedy. Foster is now faced with the tough decision of leaving her son on life support as long as the hospital and courts will allow or pulling the plug.

Lake Lanier will undoubtedly be sued in some manner or another, as the tragedy took place on their premises. However, the main liability lies with Hubbard, due to his failure to operate the jet ski in a safe and proper manner.

Usher's 11-Year-Old Stepson Is Brain Dead After Jet Ski Accident On Lake Lanier In Georgia

In an incredibly sad story, Kyle Glover, the 11-year-old stepson of singer Usher Raymond, was pronounced brain dead after a tragic jet ski mishap on Georgia's Lake Lanier. Raymond was married to Kyle's mother Tameka Foster Glover Raymond for 2-years and lived with him in Atlanta. The two are in the middle of a very acrimonious custody and alimony case.

Reports indicate that on Sunday, July 8, 2012, Kyle was floating on an inner tube, whilst spending the day with a 15-year-old girl, when a jet ski being driven by a 36-year-old male in their party, struck him on the head. He was rushed to the Egelston Hospital in Atlanta, but had sustained such a serious traumatic brain injury that doctors pronounced him brain dead. The young girl was injured as well, the extent of which has not been reported.

Usher chartered a private plane to fly Foster back to Atlanta to be with her son in the hospital, as she was away from Georgia when the accident transpired. The incident is being investigated by police and could result in criminal charges. 

Foster has three children from a previous marriage to Ryan Glover, whom she left during a well-publicized adulterous affair with Usher. Foster and Usher were wed shortly after and she gave birth to two children for the singer. However, the marriage was short lived, with Usher filing for divorce in 2009.
