Grammy-winning artist Usher filed for divorce from his wife of nearly two years, Tameka Foster, Friday in Atlanta.

Legal papers don't cite an official reason for the split. A source tells Usmagazine.com the pair have been "separated for awhile."

Look back at Hollywood's ugliest divorces.

Usher, 30, and Foster, 38, have two sons together: Usher Raymond V, 21 months, and Naviyd Ely, who was born last December. Foster also has three sons from a prior relationship.

"Usher just wants what's best for the kids," the source tells Us.

They are due in court Wednesday, July 15, court records show.

Check out more pictures of stars at court.

The pair confirmed their August 2007 nuptials exclusively to Usmagazine.com

"It was beautiful and private," Usher gushed to Us. of their wedding in Atlanta, Georgia. "We didnt have a first dance but we had a lovely, intimate dinner filled with candlelight and flowers."

They exchanged vows again on September 1.

    This just goes to show you what goes around comes around! Temeka left her husband and 3 kids for Usher and now Usher is leaving her. What now Temeka? You now have 5 kids! Whose next? Yes you will be paid by Usher but what's money when you don't have the man? Maybe now Usher will listen to his mother. His mother didn't want him to marry Temeka in the first place. Usher got p

    The kids are too young for this. I just hope both of you are not making a sad mistake. I believe marriage should be for better for worst.

    Usher is a good man. And I know it has to be something very serious for him to file for divorce. Either way he is going to be an wonderful father to his kids. I dont think he worried about the money. As far as Tameka's intentions, right now they are very unclear. But Usher was in love with her! Yes his mother didnt agree with the marriage, but no mother would wish divorce for her child.

    If it was her traveling all over the world and then filed for divorce in his time of need ... Her haters would be all over that... His timing sucks... Im a fan of Usher ... but he needs to make up his mind what he wants.. and not cave into public opinion Demi More and Ashton Kutcher endured a lot of public criticism.. but they're still together - She had children from a prior marriage

    "Austingirl" The kind of mom thta really never cared in the first place, some women like to just have kids and want them all to their self as long as they have money to take care off them, have you seen the story about Octomom, they're called GOLD DIGGERS
