It’s hard to believe the little girl Eminem sang about is old enough to have a baby of her own, but Hailie Jade Scott is all grown up and made him a grandpa. The 29-year-old shared a photo of her newborn son on his due date, April 4. But as a big surprise to the world, he’s been here since March 14. Hailie and her husband, Evan McClintock, welcomed their first son three weeks ago and gave him the sweetest name, Elliot Marshall McClintock. Of course, Eminem’s real name is Marshall Mathers, so Hailie gave birth to the next Slim Shady.

Hailie and Evan announced their pregnancy in the fall of 2024 and gave Eminem a personalized Detroit Lions jersey with Grandpa on the back and an ultrasound photo. Em looked totally taken aback and extremely excited.
Just before giving birth, Hailie shared her excitement on her podcast Just A Little Shady.
“It’s so weird to think about… I can’t even wrap my head around it,” Hailie said. “I have to meet this human that I’ve created. What’s he gonna look like? What’s he gonna … what’s his personality gonna be [like]? It’s strange but super exciting.”
As soon as they saw the news, Hailie and Eminem fans rushed to the comment section to share congratulations.
This person immediately noticed the baby’s name. “His initials are EM & M Genius! What a little cutie.”
So did this person, “Not me tearing up at the middle name like I’m related.”
And this one, “His middle name. I’m crying he’s so precious.”
Fans were so excited to see Eminem’s evolution from dad to grandpa. “Em stood on business for his kids, and now he’s Grandpa. We love this. Congrats, girl!”
This person nailed it, “Lil shady please stand up.”
