In a heartwarming twist, iconic rapper Eminem is about to step into a new chapter of his life as a grandfather. The news was revealed in his latest music video for the song "Temporary", a touching tribute to his daughter Hailie Jade Mathers, who is expecting her first child. The video, which features Skylar Grey, not only celebrates their close bond but also captures the pivotal moment when Hailie breaks the exciting news to her father.
The emotional video, which dropped on Thursday, showcases a montage of home videos and special moments between Eminem and Hailie, dating back to her childhood. Among these intimate clips are scenes from her wedding to long-time partner Evan McClintock, which took place in May at Greencrest Manor in Battle Creek, Michigan. Hailie is seen walking down the aisle in a stunning mermaid-style white gown, with her father visibly emotional as he sees her in her dress for the first time.
The Pregnancy Reveal: A Grandpa Jersey & Sonogram
The most highlight moment in the video occurs when Hailie hands her dad a folded Detroit Lions jersey, emblazoned with the word "Grandpa" on the back. In disbelief, Eminem opens the jersey, and his shock deepens when Hailie follows it up with a sonogram photo, confirming her pregnancy. The rapper’s mouth drops in astonishment as he shows the ultrasound to the camera, his eyes filled with pride and emotion.
The video wraps up with touching footage of the father-daughter dance from Hailie's wedding, a heartfelt moment underscored by a clip of toddler Hailie swearing in a home video. It ends with a card signed by Hailie with her nickname, "Bean", a tender reminder of their close relationship.
Social Media Erupts in Joy
Shortly after the video’s release, Hailie, 28, confirmed her pregnancy on Instagram, posting a picture with her husband Evan and captioning it “Mom & dad est. 2025”. Fans quickly flooded social media with congratulatory messages, with many expressing how touched they were by the personal glimpse into Eminem’s family life.
Hailie and Evan’s Journey
Hailie and her husband Evan McClintock have been together since 2016, having met while studying at Michigan State University. They got engaged in February 2023 and tied the knot in a modest, intimate ceremony attended by close friends and family. Their relationship has been a steady, supportive presence in Hailie’s life, and fans have been eagerly following their journey as a couple.
During an episode of her podcast, "Just a Little Shady", Evan revealed how he asked Eminem for permission to propose, sharing that he followed the rapper downstairs during a family gathering and seized the opportunity to pop the question.
