Eminem, the iconic rapper known for his powerful lyrics and unforgettable music, has officially become a grandfather. His daughter, Hailie Jade Scott, welcomed her first child, a baby boy named Elliot Marshall McClintock, on March 14, 2025. The news was shared with the world through a heartfelt Instagram post by Hailie Jade, where she revealed her son’s name and birthdate.

Hailie Jade, now 29, is the only biological child Eminem shares with his ex-wife, Kim Scott. The couple’s relationship has been well-documented in Eminem’s music, with several songs mentioning Hailie and her mother. Hailie’s pregnancy was first revealed in October 2024 through Eminem’s music video for "Temporary," which featured archival footage of Hailie as a child and her recent wedding to Evan McClintock in May 2024. In the video, Hailie Jade surprised her father with a Detroit Lions jersey that read "Grandpa" on the back, along with a sonogram photo, confirming her pregnancy.

The baby’s middle name, Marshall, is a clear tribute to Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III. Fans were quick to notice this homage, expressing their emotions in the comment section of Hailie’s Instagram post. The initials "EM&M" also pay homage to Eminem’s rap persona, adding another layer of significance to the name.

Hailie Jade’s excitement about becoming a mother was evident in the final episode of her podcast, "Just a Little Shady," before giving birth. She expressed her awe at the idea of meeting the child she had created, saying, "I can't even wrap my head around it. I have to meet this human that I’ve created. What’s he gonna look like?". Her co-host, Brittany Ednie, also shared stories of keeping Hailie’s pregnancy a secret during her wedding, revealing that Hailie would hand her drink to Ednie whenever people turned around, so it looked like she was continuously drinking.

Evan McClintock, Hailie’s husband, has been a supportive partner throughout her pregnancy. The couple met while attending Michigan State University and began dating in 2016. They got engaged in 2023 and married in Michigan in May 2024. McClintock was excited about the idea of having a son, envisioning father-son activities like hunting and golfing.

Eminem’s reaction to becoming a grandfather was captured in the music video for "Temporary," where he appeared visibly surprised and emotional upon seeing the sonogram photo. His journey as a father has been well-documented, with Eminem often speaking about the importance of being there for his children and raising them the right way. He has also credited his children with helping him stay sober and navigate through various challenges in his life.

The arrival of Elliot Marshall McClintock marks a new chapter in the lives of Hailie Jade, Evan McClintock, and Eminem. As Hailie steps into her new role as a mother, she continues to honor her father’s legacy while forging her own path. The support and love from her family, especially from her father, will undoubtedly play a significant role in her journey as a new mom.
