Definitely not news we want to hear. Multi-Grammy winner Usher’s 11-year-old stepson Kyle Glover is reportedly in critical condition following a boat collision outside Atlanta, Georgia.
On Friday afternoon, a man riding a jetski reportedly lost control and pulled Glover from a boat at Lake Lanier. In addition, a 15-year-old girl floating in an inner tube was also injured.
Both Glover and the teen girl were air lifted to Children’s Healthcare at Egleston Hospital, and a source told TMZ that Glover remains unresponsive and is in critical condition.
The incident is the third boating accident at the lake this summer. In June, the Prince brothers of Buford were killed during a collision. Also last month a youth nearly lost his leg in an accident involving a boat propeller.
Usher has been dealing with a tumultuous few months. He is currently in court fighting for custody of his two kids and he recently had to file a restraining order against a woman who claimed she was his wife.
Usher’s stepson, Kyle Glover, is fighting for his life following an unfortunate boating accident. The eleven-year-old was riding a jet ski with friends on Georgia’s Lake Lanier when he collided with another vessel and sustained serious head injuries. His family has been gathering around him in the hospital as doctors struggle to stabilize his condition.
This tragic incident has left Usher shaken and distraught. He had formed a strong bond with Kyle over the years since marrying Tameka Foster, who is Kyle’s mother. They have two sons together as well; five-year-old Naviyd Ely Raymond and four-year-old Usher V. Friends close to both families are heartbroken at this difficult time, having seen how much of an impact Usher had on Kyle’s young life.
Life hangs in the balance for Ushers’ beloved stepson, but no one can dispute that he received all the love of a father figure from the Grammy Award Winning artist during their relationship. Let us hope and pray that Kyle recovers soon so that they may continue their special bond once more.
