What Happened With Usher’s Wife

A Brazilian plastic surgeon has revealed details of the procedure that temporarily left Usher’s wife, Tameka Raymond, in a medically-induced coma.

Two months after giving birth to the couple’s second son, the 38-year-old Raymond, went to Brazil to have liposuction on her stomach, says Ellen Dasptry, a rep for Sao Paulo plastic surgeon Dr. Silvio Sterman, who was to have performed the surgery.

“Tameka Raymond came here on Friday to do a liposuction. Shortly after she went under [general] anesthesia, she suffered a cardiac arrest,” Dasptry tells People magazine.

Raymond never actually had the liposuction. According to Dasptry, after her cardiac arrest, Raymond was immediately revived and placed in an induced coma.

“When an attack like this happens, the doctors put the patient to sleep… and make sure that everything is okay and that there has not been any damage,” explains Dasptry. “This is the protocol every time and this is what was done.”

After a day in the ICU, Raymond was transferred to a larger facility, Sao Paulo’s Hospital Sírio-Libanês, considered one of the finest in Brazil, says Dasptry. After nearly a week of recovery, she “is doing very well,” says the surgeon’s spokeswoman.

On Saturday, Usher canceled a performance at Clive Davis’ pre-Grammy gala to fly to Brazil to be at his wife’s side. Davis told partygoers the singer had to leave due to “serious injury in the family.” Usher and Raymond have two sons: Usher Raymond V, 1, and Naveid Ely Raymond, who is two months old. Raymond also has three sons from a previous relationship.

On Feb. 8, Usher’s rep Simone Smalls issued a statement on the star’s behalf: “Tameka Raymond is in stable condition after suffering complications from routine surgery in Brazil. Her husband Usher is with her at the hospital. No further details will be released, and the family requests privacy at this difficult time.”

Why would Usher’s wife have this plastic surgery after just having a baby?.
Why would Usher let her go to Brazil to have this done? Didnt’ she realized that she could have left her five children without a mother? I wish her and all of her family the very best.
