Tameka Foster's Friend Blasts Media

''The Sympathy Should Be Given To Them...'' 1:30PM ET July 12th, 2012 Contributor : Erica Moore A Rocky Williform Company A friend of Usher's ex-wife, Tameka Foster, is blasting the media and the public in the wake of Foster's son's tragic lake accident. The 11-year old was left brain dead after he was hit by a jet ski, and for the unnamed friend, too many people are offering condolences to Usher--instead of the child's mother and biological father. “I’ve seen celebs and media outlets alike continue to send their condolences to Usher. Kile was Tameka and Ryan Glover’s child and the sympathy should be given to them first and foremost,” Tameka’s associate told RadarOnline. “Although Usher has been so kind in chartering a plane so she could be by Kile’s side, he didn’t necessarily play a huge role in Tameka’s other children’s lives after the divorce therefore it seems a little disrespectful that Ryan is being ignored as a father, in place of another just because he’s topping the Billboard charts," the source stated. “Ryan was equally devoted and involved in Kile’s life — they shared joint custody and Kile was with his other family at the lake, so for those who are claiming Tameka’s at fault for not being there is just absurd — because of the joint custody, her two boys aren’t always directly in her eyesight, but she is a phenomenal mother.”
