Eminem has officially become a grandfather. His daughter, Hailie Jade Scott, and her husband, Evan McClintock, welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Elliot Marshall McClintock, on March 14, 2025. Hailie shared the joyful news on Instagram, revealing that Elliot’s middle name honors her father, whose real name is Marshall Mathers.
The couple, who married in May 2024, had kept the pregnancy private until October 2024, when they announced it through Eminem’s music video for his song “Temporary.” The heartfelt video featured personal footage, including moments from Hailie’s childhood, her wedding, and the touching scene where she revealed her pregnancy to Eminem by presenting him with a personalized “Grandpa” football jersey and a sonogram photo.
Slim Shady has often expressed his deep bond with Hailie in his music, dedicating songs like “Hailie’s Song,” “Mockingbird,” “Temporary” and “Somebody Save Me” to her. The addition of Elliot to the family marks a new chapter, with Eminem embracing his role as a grandfather.
Hailie and Evan’s journey into parenthood has been shared with fans through various platforms, including Hailie’s “Just a Little Shady” podcast, where they discussed their excitement and preparations for their son’s arrival. The family’s close-knit relationship and shared joy have been evident throughout this special time.
