The baby’s name and birth stats have not been revealed, but it has been rumored that they have decided to name him Usher Raymond V. The baby was born in an Atlanta hospital and is expected to go home on Wednesday. This is the first child for Usher and the fourth for Foster who has three children with her ex-husband, Noontime Music cofounder Ryan Glover.
Usher, 28, and Foster, 36, have been friend’s for about seven years, five of which she worked as his personal stylist. The two began dating about a year and a half ago and they announced their pregnancy in June. They revealed the sex of the baby in September and Usher said at the time, "I just want my son to fully be coherent and to be healthy, first and foremost."
The couple was supposed to tie the knot in July, but the wedding was postponed. At first it was speculated that the couple had called it quits for good, and it was rumored that Usher had changed his mind. It was later revealed that Foster had suffered a "pregnancy scare" and they had to push the wedding back. Of course the rumors still dogged the couple. Reportedly Usher’s mother, Jonetta Patton, did not approve of the relationship, which caused a lot of problems between Usher and Foster. The couple eventually did exchange vows on August 3 in a very small and quiet civil ceremony and it was reported that Usher’s mother did not attend the ceremony.
