Even though Usher is on the verge of being sued for allegedly exposing two women and a man to herpes, the R&B star’s wife is standing by her man.
According to TMZ, Usher’s wife, Grace Miguel, is unconcerned about the allegations and the lawsuit. TMZ reports that Miguel, who married Usher in September 2015, “isn’t giving the lawsuit any weight.”

On Friday, attorney Lisa Bloom announced that she is planning to file a lawsuit in a California court next week on behalf of the alleged victims. Bloom is also representing Blac Chyna in her revenge-porn case against Rob Kardashian.
The suit alleges that Usher, whose real name is Usher Raymond IV, contracted genital herpes prior to his encounters with her clients and did not disclose the STD diagnosis prior to sexual contact. Two of the people in the suit are remaining anonymous while it’s reported that a third victim will speak out at a press conference following the suit’s filing on Monday.
One of the accusers in the lawsuit claims that she and Usher had sexual relations this year and that she would never have engaged in sex with the star had he disclosed the STD. She is seeking roughly $10 million in damages.
This lawsuit isn’t the first STD lawsuit against the star. Usher previously settled a lawsuit with similar allegations for $1.1 million in December 2012.
Usher nor his wife have publicly commented on the allegations.
