Tameka Foster says her divorce with singer Usher is yet to be finalised.

Usher filed for divorce from Foster in June and demanded joint custody of their sons, Usher Raymond V, 22 months, and Naviyd, 10 months.

The star declared he was single after signing divorce papers in August and media reports suggested the divorce had been finalised after court files were marked as “disposed”.

However, close reading of reports about Usher seemed to avoid declaring his divorce was final. The release of a new song titled Papers and some buzz that the title was about the couple’s divorce only stoked the story. Papers has since been clarified by its composer as a song about the breakdown of Usher’s relationship with his mother.

Foster’s representatives, meanwhile, blasted reports the divorce was final and said the news was a publicity stunt to promote Usher’s new album.

“The divorce is definitely not finalised yet; this is just another publicity stunt to promote his new album. We have seen it all before,” said Foster’s spokeswoman on her website.
