Usher’s personal life has remained a hot topic in both mainstream media and the blog world for the last several years. Musically, he produced hits with his latest album Looking 4 Myself LP and rode with Bieber as he continued his reign as a young pop king. However, within his accomplishments Ursh has suffered through a failed marriage, turmoil with his mother, death in the family and much more. With these lingering hardships in his life, there was only one person he could go to give the real answers to the real questions. You guessed it. Oprah. Last night, her Next Chapter interview series aired the full Usher episode, and it was eye-opening to say the least.
“Towards the end of our marriage, I found myself lost, and I just wanted out,” Usher says about his divorce. “No. I was faithful at heart, but not faithful all the way. Even having a conversation with another woman, period, about matters of your relationship or emotions is, in my opinion, not being faithful.”
“But were you with another woman sexually?” pressed Oprah. “When we were separated, yes, I was,” Usher responded. “We were not divorced.”
“The friend that I was to Tameka, I don’t know that I could ever be again, because I really felt like we were friends. She made us enemies in a way that I could never understood. It wasn’t until I was on the stand, where I cried, when I realized, ‘Oh, this is an attack.’”
