Eminem Is a Grandpa! Hailie Jade Welcomes Baby Boy Elliot and Honors Her Dad with His Name
Eminem is officially a grandpa! His daughter, Hailie Jade Scott, and her husband, Evan McClintock, have welcomed their first child — a baby boy named Elliot Marshall McClintock. The couple announced the joyful news on Instagram, with Hailie posting a sweet photo of their little boy wearing a light blue hooded sweater in front of a sign displaying his name and birthdate, March 14, 2025.
In her post, Hailie shared the special meaning behind her son's middle name, which honors her dad, whose real name is Marshall Mathers. She captioned the photo, "happy due date//3 weeks earthside little e 🤍," expressing her excitement to meet her son.
A Special Moment for Eminem and His Family
During the final episode of her Just a Little Shady podcast before giving birth, Hailie reflected on the anticipation of becoming a mom. She joked that her son was her "dream podcast guest," adding, "It's so weird to think about… I can't even wrap my head around it."
Although she kept most details of her pregnancy private, Hailie shared a few glimpses of her journey with her fans, including a sneak peek into the baby's nursery. Back in October 2024, she and Evan revealed they were expecting a boy on a special podcast episode. Hailie even popped a balloon filled with blue confetti, officially announcing the baby’s gender to their audience.
Eminem’s Heartwarming Reaction to Becoming a Grandpa
Eminem, who has always been open about his deep love for his daughter, was emotional upon hearing the news that he was going to be a grandpa. In October 2024, he released a music video for his song "Temporary," which featured old home videos of Hailie growing up. The touching video ended with a clip of Hailie revealing her pregnancy to her dad. She handed him a blue football jersey that read “Grandpa #1” and a sonogram image. The proud grandfather-to-be’s eyes welled up with tears as he processed the exciting news.
Eminem has always credited Hailie with changing his life and motivating him to be a better person. In 2001, he told Q magazine that becoming a father was a "real wakeup call" for him, pushing him to work harder and build a successful future for his daughter. “Everything that I am doing right now is for Hailie… the money — it’s for her college,” he shared.
What’s Next for the Growing Family?
As Hailie and Evan start this new chapter of parenthood, the entire family, including Eminem, is overjoyed to welcome little Elliot. With Hailie becoming a mom and Eminem stepping into the role of grandpa, this new addition marks an exciting new era for the Scott-Mathers family.
Eminem’s pride in his daughter and her growing family is clear, and fans can expect more heartwarming moments as they continue to share their journey with the world.
