Usher's Wife Thought "Marriage Was Intact"

Tameka Raymond says she didn't see it coming.
Usher's soon to be ex-wife states in a new court filing that she and the R&B star have not been separated since July 2008 and, in fact, were "intimately together" less than a week before he started divorce proceedings.
She had "every reason to believe her marriage was intact," her attorney stated in documents filed Monday in Atlanta.
But since it wasn't, Tameka now wants to make sure that her estranged husband takes care of all of her legal fees pertaining to the split and continues to support his family financially, per the filing.
Usher filed for divorce June 12, checking off "irretrievably broken" as his reason to end the marriage and requesting joint custody of the couple's two sons.
The duo swapped vows in a private civil ceremony in August 2007 and brought family and friends into the mix with a more elaborate set of "I do's" the following month.
Usher's divorce petition states that they were on the rocks less than a year later.
