Usher<\/strong><\/a>, 45, is probably one of the coolest dads a kid can have! Not only is the musician a Grammy<\/a> winner with eight trophies under his belt but he’s also been nominated<\/a> 23 times as of 2024. In addition, the 45-year-old is a household name for music lovers with many hits including “OMG,” “Yeah!” “My Boo,” and many more.<\/p>\n

The “Love in This Club” hitmaker will also perform at the 2024 Super Bowl<\/a> on February 11 for the official halftime show<\/a>. Usher recently appeared on\u00a0Good Morning America <\/em><\/a>in January 2024 and opened up about his preparations for the show. “It\u2019s been a dream of mine and a bucket list, you know, thing to be able to get it,” he said during the interview<\/a>. “You know, they say what is it, Oscar<\/a>, Tony, Grammy, Emmy<\/a>, right? You should put [the] Super Bowl there too, right?” Ahead of the show, keep reading to learn all about Usher’s kiddos!<\/p>\n

The recording artist became a father<\/a> for the first time with the birth of his son, Usher “Cinco” Raymond V<\/strong><\/a>, on November 27, 2007. The now 16-year-old was born to both Usher and his first wife,\u00a0Tameka Foster<\/strong><\/a>. The now 53-year-old and her ex were married from 2007 until they officially divorced in 2009. Both of Cinco’s parents recently reunited for his 16th birthday in November 2023 and the proud mom shared moments from the celebrations via Instagram<\/a>. “I LOVE you to Life son @cincoye ~May God continue to love, guide and protect you,” Usher’s ex captioned the post.<\/p>\n

Just over one year later, Tameka and Usher<\/a> welcomed their second son, Naviyd Ely<\/strong>. The now 15-year-old came into his family’s lives on December 10, 2008, and officially made them a foursome. Sadly, just six months later Usher officially filed for divorce<\/a> from the mother-of-two. A few years later, the exes battled it out for custody of their two sons and the decision ruled in favor of the father in August 2013, per PEOPLE<\/em><\/a>. By September 2012, Usher appeared on Oprah\u2019s Next Chapter\u00a0<\/em>and discussed the difficulties he experienced with Tameka.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s put aside all of the issues that come with being a celebrity and having married someone that people don\u2019t approve of,\u201d he said at the time, per US Weekly<\/em><\/a>. \u201cYou have at-home problems with communication, with understanding of how things go. It is hard being married. I didn\u2019t know how to balance it. It was obviously too much for me.”<\/p>\n
