The lovebirds had reportedly been engaged since February, but plans for a larger wedding in Usher’s hometown of Atlanta apparently gave way to the decision to elope in relative secrecy. Neither Usher nor Miguel have spoken publicly about the nuptials, but [_Us Weekly_ cites unnamed sources](http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/usher-and-longtime-girlfriend-grace-miguel-are-married-2015239 "undefined") confirming that the two got hitched before leaving for Cuba over Labor Day weekend. Miguel’s Instagram post shows a gold band prominent on Usher’s finger. Miguel, eight years Usher’s senior, has worked as the artist’s manager for more than three years, though the two began dating in 2009. Usher’s first marriage, to Tameka Foster, lasted just two years and ended the year he began dating Miguel. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4047762/usher-grace-miguel-wedding/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4047762/usher-grace-miguel-wedding/"},"headline":"Usher Quietly Got Married And Honeymooned in Cuba","datePublished":"2015-09-24T08:17:57.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T11:12:56.892Z","description":"Seems he has more Confessions","url":"https://time.com/4047762/usher-grace-miguel-wedding/","keywords":["celebrities","Music","Cuba topic"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte11580bfec22e6f8/6988652ccd1bba43f46fd538/gettyimages-461317350.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Nash Jenkins","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/p-nash-jenkins/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte11580bfec22e6f8/6988652ccd1bba43f46fd538/gettyimages-461317350.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"GettyImages-461317350","caption":"attends the Art of Elysium and Samsung Galaxy present Marina Abramovic's HEAVEN at Hangar 8 on January 10, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.","creditText":"Jonathan Leibson—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/celebrities/","name":"celebrities"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4047762/usher-grace-miguel-wedding/","name":"Usher Quietly Got Married And Honeymooned in Cuba"}}]}] ```
