Jennifer Goicoechea, longtime girlfriend of American musician Usher, married in Las Vegas on February 11, where the singer played at Super Bowl LVIII, according to People.
The couple exchanged vows at Vegas Weddings’ Terrace Gazebo, with Jonetta Patton, Usher’s mother, serving as witness, according to the marriage certificate.

“We can confirm that Usher and Jennifer Goicoechea took the next step in their relationship and did get married on Sunday night in Las Vegas surrounded by close friends and family,” a representative for the singer told People.
“They both look forward to continuing to raise their children together surrounded by love and thank everyone for the well wishes.”

Following the big game, the couple headed out in Las Vegas, where Usher was photographed wearing a gold band around his left ring finger. Goicoechea donned an all-white pantsuit with an off-the-shoulder, tie-waist jacket and wide-leg slacks, while Usher wore a white floor-sweeping fur coat over his black tuxedo.
In an exclusive interview with People earlier this week, the Super Bowl 2024 halftime show performer discussed his friendship with Goicoechea.

“Listen, when you find someone that you know is a great partner, of course it is an honor and a pleasure to be able to share life with someone who wants to share it with you and loves you, who you are,” he said.
“We’ve obviously made a commitment to life for life together because of our children,” Usher continued. “It wouldn’t be odd for us to get married. We already did here. You know what I’m saying?”
“And we’re going to be in each other’s lives until we die, obviously, because we have something to share. That’s beautiful. Our children. But not because of that. I really do feel like I have an amazing partner that I respect.”

Usher also talked about how he had a deep connection with Goicoechea during a moment of personal development.

“I started this journey, I found and met an amazing partner who happened to be my best friend and was there all the time, and I was like, wow, this could be great,” he said of the start of their romance, which began after he took a soul-searching trip around the globe in 2018.

The couple had their first child, daughter Sovereign Bo, in 2020, and a son, Sire Castrello, in 2021. Usher also has two sons with his ex-wife, Tameka Foster: Usher V and Naviyd Ely.
Goicoechea and Usher sparked dating speculations after they were photographed together at producer Keith Thomas’ 40th birthday party in June 2019.
Prior to his appearance at Super Bowl LVIII, Usher stated that Goicoechea is always rooting for him. “I have an amazing partner, a support system,” he told People.
“We have an amazing dynamic between our relationship where I’m able to be passionate still about what I do and have an incredible partner to work through some of the harder times as a young man dealing with children.”

Usher continued to rave about the support and love from Goicoechea, saying, “I’m very happy, very fortunate to have an incredible friend, not just a partner. She’s my best friend and I love her.”

Goicoechea had been working in the music industry for years and had met Usher several times before their love relationship began.
In March 2016, she shared a selfie of herself whispering in his ear at an undisclosed event. A few years later, in March 2018, she posted a flashback photo of him with numerous male creatives, including producer Bryan-Michael Cox, with the caption “Boys Club.”

However, it wasn’t until they were seen at Thomas’ birthday celebration in Atlanta in June 2019 that suspicion about a relationship between the two began.
They were later seen kissing backstage at a Hollywood Bowl event in October 2019.
Melody Willis-Williams, president of Vegas Weddings, where the couple exchanged vows, extended her best wishes to the newlyweds in an exclusive message to People.

“Congratulations to the Newlyweds! What a great game and Usher’s performance was phenomenal! We were beyond thrilled to host in this epic day for Usher and his new wife. As much as we love, love, this is the couple’s news to share any further details on. We’ll always be fans of Usher! Yeah!”
