Eminem has just surprised his fans with exciting and moving news in his latest music video. The 51-year-old rapper subtly revealed that his daughter HailieJade Mathers, 28, is expecting her first baby.
The revelation was made in the music video for his new song "Temporary," released on Thursday, where Eminem appears wearing a Detroit Lions t-shirt with the word "grandpa" printed on the back. This detail was enough for fans to deduce the big news.
Eminem is already going to be a grandparent
The video, which is dedicated to Hailie, sparked a wave of reactions on social media. Eminem's fans quickly flooded the comment section on YouTube with messages of congratulations. "Eminem is a true example of a father. Congratulations on becoming a grandfather," commented one of the users.
This big announcement comes just a few months after Hailie Jade's wedding to Evan McClintock in May. The couple got married in an intimate ceremony at Greencrest Manor in Battle Creek, Michigan, surrounded by their loved ones.
One of the most emotional moments of the event was the traditional father-daughter dance, where Eminem took Hailie to the center of the dance floor for a dance that moved the attendees. The bride looked stunning in a mermaid-style dress, while the groom looked elegant in a classic tuxedo. Hailie and Evan met at Michigan State University in 2016, and after several years of dating, McClintock proposed to Hailie during the 2022 holiday season.
In the podcast of Hailie, “Just a Little Shady”, McClintock shared how he asked Eminem for permission to marry his daughter: “I just followed him to the basement and, luckily, he was there going for a cake, so I took advantage of the moment,” he explained with laughter. With the arrival of their first child, Hailie and Evan’s lives are about to take an even more exciting turn, as Eminem’s fans celebrate with them this new chapter in the rapper’s and his beloved daughter’s life.
