Eminem has stepped into a new chapter of life as he becomes a grandfather for the first time.
His daughter, Hailie Jade, shared the heartwarming news on Instagram, revealing she welcomed a baby boy named Evan Marshall McClintock last month. The choice of Evan’s middle name is a heartfelt nod to his legendary grandpa, Marshall Mathers.
Hailie’s post was simple yet touching: ‘Happy due date//3 weeks earthside little e [white heart emoji].’ Family friend 50 Cent is already gearing up for his new role, reposting the adorable photo and exclaiming, ‘Congratulations. This is the best. WOW!’
Eminem’s adopted daughter Alaina couldn’t hold back her joy either, commenting on Hailie’s post about her admiration for the new mom and her excitement over the new family member. ‘Obsessed with this tiny human and could not be more in awe of YOU mama!!!’ she expressed.
The moment Eminem found out about becoming a grandfather was equally memorable. During the music video for his song ‘Temporary,’ Hailie presented him with a custom jersey featuring ‘Grandpa #1’ and shared her sonogram, leaving him in a state of joy and surprise.
50 Cent, never shy about sharing his feelings, also took to Instagram again to express his joy, humorously noting that the baby isn’t so little anymore. As he sits back and reflects, he amusingly reminds Eminem, ‘@eminem man [eyes looking emoji] we fvcking getting old smh LOL.’
Reflecting on Hailie’s wedding last year to Evan McClintock, 50 admitted he was overwhelmed with emotion, wishing for a father-daughter bond himself. His admission, ‘For female children, their dad is the first man they fall in love with,’ gives a glimpse into his sentimental side.
With a new member in the family, Eminem’s legacy continues to grow, intertwining the world of music with precious family moments.
