Eminem is about to add “Grandpa” to his list of titles!
On 3rd October, the 51-year-old rapper released a heartfelt music video for his song ‘Temporary,’ featuring a collection of old home videos of his daughter, Hailie Jade Scott, 28. Near the end of the video, the proud father shares a touching moment where Hailie reveals she’s expecting her first child with husband Evan McClintock.
In the clip, Hailie hands her dad a blue football jersey with “Grandpa” and the number 1 on it, along with a sonogram image. Eminem’s face shows pure emotion as his jaw drops and his eyes well up with tears at the news.
On 4th February, 2023, Hailie Jade got engaged to her longtime partner, Evan McClintock. The couple had been together for six years before the proposal, having first met at Michigan State University in 2016.
“Casual weekend recap … 😭💗 2.4.23 💍 i love you @evanmcclintock11,” she captioned a photo of McClintock down on one knee and a photo of her sparkly diamond ring.
In an interview on Hailie Jade’s Just a Little Shady podcast, McClintock shared that he sought Eminem’s blessing to propose during Hailie Jade’s birthday party in December 2022.

“I saw your dad go downstairs, and I’m like, ‘I gotta do it right now, or I’m not doing it today, and I’m gonna have to schedule another time,’ ” he remembered. “So I just followed him downstairs, and, thankfully, he was just down there getting your cake and made it happen.”
Eminem expressed his support for Hailie Jade’s relationship during a 2020 interview on Hotboxin’ With Mike Tyson.
“No babies. Just a boyfriend. She’s doing good. She’s made me proud for sure,” he said of his daughter.
Over a year after her engagement to McClintock, Hailie Jade announced their marriage in an Instagram post that showcased their wedding photos.
“Waking up a wife this week 🥲💍. We couldn’t have asked for a better, more beautiful weekend celebration,” she wrote in her caption.
“So so many happy tears were shed, laughs & smiles were had, & so much love was felt. Evan and I are feeling so grateful for all of the family & friends that travelled to support us and be a part of this new chapter of our lives as husband & wife 🤍.”
