Recently discovered court documents reveal that Usher was ordered to pay a stylist $1.1 million in 2012 after willfully keeping his herpes diagnosis from her, which led to her contracting the disease. The woman in question has not been identified, leading people to wonder whether the stylist is Usher's ex-wife, Tameka Foster who has worked as a stylist for several years. However, Tameka has since taken to social media to deny those rumors.
"Do not come on my page discussing rumors or adult people that have NOTHING to do with me. I have been divorced 8 years...
Some issues are not my business, ex-husbands, ex-friends, b---h-maids, snakes, h--s, characters, etc." she wrote, via Instagram.
"I'm good and my health (Everywhere is great), well my right knee hurts and I need reading glasses but otherwise I'm awesome and enjoying the sun," she added.
Tameka Foster's denial comes after speculation turned her way when people started to wonder whether she was either the woman who filed the lawsuit or if she had been infected with herpes indirectly.Judging by the tone of her post, it's clear that Tameka Foster wants no part of these rumors.
Usher's Shaky History With His Ex-Wife
Tameka Foster has a very shaky history with Usher. Tameka and Usher wed in 2007. By 2009, the marriage was over, allegedly because of Usher's affair with Tameka's then friend who served as a bridesmaid in her wedding.
In 2012, Tameka Foster lost custody of their two sons to the singer.
Did The Alleged Bridesmaid File The Lawsuit?
It's unclear if the woman at the center of the lawsuit is the bridesmaid. In 2012, Usher admitted that he did indeed sleep with the bridesmaid during a 2012 sit-down with Oprah. He justified his decision by claiming that they had been friends for many years and that she had been in his kid's lives since their birth.
Could Tameka Foster Have Been Exposed To Herpes?
As stated earlier, Tameka Foster has denied rumors that she had been exposed to herpes. However, the timeline of events does lead on to wonder whether or not it is a possibility. The court documents, uncovered by Radar Online, reveal that the famed singer was infected between 2009 and 2010, meaning that it is possible that bridesmaid is the woman who filed the lawsuit.
It also means that it is possible that Tameka was exposed to the infection. It all boils down to whether Usher was infected before or after their divorce was finalized, and whether or not Tamka had contact with him after he was exposed.Usher has yet to respond these rumors.
