Usher and wife Grace Miguel are calling it quits.
The 39-year-old singer and Miguel confirmed their separation in a joint statement Tuesday after more than two years of marriage and nearly 10 years together.
"After much thought and consideration, we have mutually decided to separate as a couple," the pair told People.
"We remain deeply connected, loving friends who will continue supporting each other through the next phases of our lives," they said. "The enormous amount of love and respect that we have for each other will only increase as we move forward."
Sources told Us Weekly Usher and Miguel have been separated for "a couple months." Usher had mentioned a "new era" in an Instagram post in February while getting a new tattoo.
"new era // new ink ft. @_dr_woo_," he captioned a photo with tattoo artist Doctor Woo.
Usher and Miguel got engaged in January 2015, and secretly wed later that year. The singer was previously married to Tameka Foster, and shares two sons, 10-year-old Usher Raymond and 9-year-old Naviyd Ely, with his ex-wife.

Gayle King urges Oprah Winfrey to run for president
Gayle King thinks best friend Oprah Winfrey should reconsider running for president.
The 63-year-old television personality encouraged Winfrey on Tuesday's episode of CBS This Morning to oppose President Donald Trump in the 2020 election.
"No one should be convinced to run for the presidency, but I also think you have a very unique ability in terms of healing and connecting all people," King told the 64-year-old media mogul.
"I have great compassion for people, I do, but I think you need more than compassion to be President of the United States," Winfrey responded.
Winfrey said King initially urged her to run during a conversation at her home in Maui, Hawaii. The pair discussed the prospect prior to Winfrey's speech at the Golden Globe Awards in January.
"Gayle goes, 'Look, uh, I just want to talk to you about something. It's not going to be good for you, but I think it would be good for the country.' And I'm like, 'Get out of here!'" Winfrey recalled.
Winfrey previously said in the March issue of InStyle that King was calling and texting "regularly" about the possibility. She explained her reservations in the interview, saying a presidential run is "not for" her.
"I've always felt very secure and confident with myself in knowing what I could do and what I could not do. And so it's not something that interests me. I don't have the DNA for it," the star said.

Kufrin received support on Twitter from previous Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay who was also put in charge of the roses after having her heart broken on Season 21 of The Bachelor.
"Heartache is always a pit stop on #thebachelor journey but once you become #thebachelorette, you are in the driver's seat and you can control your own happy ending. Go get it girl!!! Congrats @thebkoof," she said.
Luyendyk Jr. got down on one knee and proposed to Burnham, on the finale. She said yes.
"I've made some bad decisions, but the best was running back to you," Luyendyk Jr. said as he asked for Burnham's hand in marriage.

Which singing icon teased a skincare collaboration with Kim Kardashian?

The 59-year-old singer hinted her MDNA Skin company will partner with KKW Beauty in an Instagram post Monday after Kardashian attended her Oscars after-party Sunday.

"Skin was very important to me, and I always took care of my skin even at a young age," the star said, according to People.
"I got really tired and fed up of years and years of performing, being onstage, being filmed, being photographed and always having to grab one product and then another one, and another one," she explained. "And as soon as I liked a product it was discontinued."
