At 52 years of age, Eminem has become a ‘Grandpa’!
His 29-year-old daughter Hailie Jade Scott, who married her husband Evan McClintock in May, has welcomed her first child to the world.
She shared the news on Friday, explaining she and Evan welcomed their baby boy three weeks before his due date on March 14.

Hailie paid tribute to her beloved dad with her son’s moniker, Elliott Marshall McClintock.
Her baby boy’s middle name was chosen as a nod to his famous ‘Grandpa’, whose real name is Marshall Mathers.

Hailie’s uncle Nathan Kane Mathers sweetly gushed: ‘You guys are going to be amazing parents! And Elliot will have the best uncle and grandpa!’
Meanwhile her sister Alaina Marie Scott commented: ‘Obsessed with this tiny human and could not be more in awe of YOU mama!!! Motherhood is such a beautiful thing and you make it look easy. I am SO proud of you and grateful you have Evan.’

Eminem pulled on fans’ heartstrings in October when he announced his daughter Hailie Jade Scott was expecting her first child.
Hailie’s pregnancy announcement came in the form of her dad’s music video for his track Temporary, which sweetly included clips of them on her wedding day.

At the end of the music video, Hailie is then seen gifting her dad a Detroit Lions jersey with ‘Grandpa’ written on the back as well as an ultrasound scan.
Eminem looked in total disbelief as he took in the joyous news, even doing a double take at the ultrasound image.

Hailie’s pregnancy announcement came almost five months after she and her husband Evan McClintock tied the knot. Per TMZ, their wedding was an elegant, ‘modestly sized’ affair in Battle Creek, Michigan, attended by ‘close family and friends’.
Her beloved dad Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, was there front and centre looking dapper in black sunglasses and a tux as he danced with his daughter on her big day.
Congratulations to Hailie and Evan. We can’t wait to see the real Slim Shady as a doting Grandpa!
