Eminem Becomes a Grandfather as Daughter Hailie Jade Welcomes Baby Boy

Eminem is officially a grandpa! His daughter Hailie Jade has given birth to a charming baby boy, Elliot Marshall McClintock, with the initials ‘EM&M’.

A Special Announcement

Hailie, at 29 years old, is the only biological child that the iconic rapper shares with his ex-wife, Kim Scott. On April 4th, she took to Instagram to share the joyous news: “happy due date//3 weeks earthside little e.”

The post revealed not just the baby’s name but also confirmed his birth date as March 14. The middle name Marshall is a touching tribute to his grandfather, whose full name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III. Interestingly, some fans have noted that the baby’s initials could also be interpreted as “EM&M”.

Emotional Moments in the Video

Eminem first shared the exciting news about becoming a grandpa in the music video for his song "Temporary" back in October. The video is a heartfelt homage to Hailie and features audio snippets of her childhood. It includes a montage of their life together, highlighting special moments, including when Hailie gifts her dad a blue jumper marked “Grandpa 1.”

In a touching scene, she hands him what appears to be an ultrasound picture, visibly surprising him before he shows it to the camera.

A Growing Family

Hailie later confirmed her pregnancy with husband Evan McClintock in another Instagram post that read: “mom & dad est. 2025.” The couple, who began dating in 2016, tied the knot in May 2024.

Hailie has always been supportive of her father's work, even stating that she "audibly sobbed" while listening to Eminem's latest album **The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)**. She pointed out the music video for "Somebody Save Me," which portrays Eminem in an alternate reality where he never overcame his addiction. Hailie shared, “I definitely cry every time I hear it at all,” emphasizing the emotional impact his music has on her.

A Moving Tribute

Critics have praised Eminem’s heartfelt song "Temporary," describing it as a genuine tribute to his daughter. As noted in a review, “Much more powerful is 'Temporary', a genuinely moving ode to his daughter, Hailie, which proves Marshall Mathers can say something that matters when he wants to.”

“So, who killed Slim Shady? In bringing him back to the light and showing him up as irrelevant, perhaps Eminem’s done his old pal in for good.”

The enthusiasm surrounding Hailie's new role as a mom and Eminem's transition into grandfatherhood is palpable, capturing the attention of fans everywhere.
