Tragedy: Usher with his ex-wife Tameka back in 2007. Her son was involved in a devastating jet ski accident on Friday.
Hello Friends!
The family of Usher's stepson today asked for prayers as they keep a bedside vigil following a tragic jet ski accident .Kyle Glover, the 11-year-old child of Usher's ex-wife Tameka Foster, was struck in the head while in the collision while riding an inner tube on Lake Lanier in Atlanta, Georgia, on Friday.
The boy 'has not experienced any brain activity' since he was admitted to hospital, according to TMZ, and a decision has yet to be made whether to take him off life support.
His family said in a statement to CNN: 'We know God's in control, and are leaning on our faith in Him and His word at this most difficult time.
'We firmly believe in the power of prayer and ask that you all continue to pray and lift Kile up, as it's the best way we can all support him now.'Usher (real name: Usher Terry Raymond IV), 33, and Foster, who divorced in 2009 after two years of marriage, were in the throes of a bitter custody battle over their sons Usher Raymond V, 4, and Naviyd, 3.
But they are understood have put their differences in the wake of the devastating accident.
Heartbreaking: Usher, pictured with Tameka back in 2008, with three of his stepsons, including Kyle who he is carrying.
Investigators analyzing the collision are waiting to see the outcome of his condition before they come to a decision.Sergeant Mike Burgamy of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources explained that the accident was still under investigation, and that the lead investigators had yet to talk with the district attorney’s office.
He told ABC News earlier this week: 'I don't know what's going to happen with the 11-year-old. We're going to have to see what his condition is going to be before we present findings of the case.'
Kyle was with an unidentified 15-year-old girl at the time and both children were airlifted to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston.A friend of the family, 38-year-old Jeffrey S. Hubbard, was allegedly operating the jet ski at the time of the collision.
Sgt Mike said: 'A pontoon was pulling the two adolescents on an inner tube, and the personal water craft went over the top of them.'
He added about the driver: 'He was interviewed, and it's possible he may be reinterviewed.'
