Just In: New Usher Divorce Details

"The Insider" has obtained the divorce papers in which R&B star Usher explains why he filed for divorce from his wife, Tameka Foster.

The papers -- filed last week in Atlanta, GA -- state that the marriage is "irretrievably broken" and "there is no reasonable hope of reconciliation."

The 30-year-old Grammy winner and his wife married in August 2007 and have two children together.

In the divorce papers, Usher reveals that the two actually separated in July 2008 and have been living apart since then. His filing also states that both parties should be awarded joint custody of their children.
