Eminem may be known for his tough exterior, but he’s a big softie when it comes to his kids.

The rapper and his ex-wife, Kim Scott, share three children: Hailie Jade Scott, Alaina Scott and Stevie Laine Scott.

“Bein’ a dad is definitely living a double life,” Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, told Rolling Stone in 2004. “Even before Hailie was born, I was a firm believer in freedom of speech … But once I hit them gates where I live, that’s when I’m Dad.”

He continued, “Takin’ the kids to school, pickin’ ’em up, teachin’ ’em rules. I’m not sayin’ I’m the perfect father, but the most important thing is to be there for my kids and raise them the right way.”

Eminem even credits his kids for helping him get sober. While he “couldn’t concentrate” on his addiction to pills in rehab because of his fame, he found the motivation to do it on his own with the help of his family.

“I love them so much and they’ve helped me through so many things,” he told New York Times Magazine in 2010.

Here’s everything to know about Eminem’s children: Hallie, Alaina and Stevie.

Hallie Jade Scott

Hailie Jade Scott was born on Dec. 25, 1995, in Detroit, Michigan.

She has been mentioned in several of her dad’s songs, including “Hailie’s Song” and “Temporary.” The latter was written to comfort Hailie in the event of Eminem’s death.

“Yeah, so Hailie Jade, I wrote you this song / To help you cope with life now that I’m gone / How should I start? Just wanna say / Look after Alaina, Stevie, and Uncle Nate,” he raps on the 2024 track. “And, sweetie, be strong, I know I was your rock / And I still am, saying goodbye is just not / Ever easy, why you crying? Just stop / Hailie, baby, dry your eye, this is not Forever.”

In 2001, Eminem said his daughter was “a real wakeup call” for him. “She made me get my a– in gear — to make something of my life and try 10 quadrillion times harder than I had before,” he told British publication Q. “Everything that I am doing right now is for Hailie … the money — it’s for her college.”

In exchange, Hailie has been known to support her dad and his career, even celebrating with her famous father when he was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in November 2022.

Hailie graduated from Michigan State College with a psychology degree and an impressive 3.9 GPA. “She’s made me proud for sure,” he said on Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson in 2020.

The eldest Scott daughter launched a podcast, Just a Little Shady, in 2022. She and her cohost, Brittany Ednie, “talk about my life, pop culture and get a little shady.”

During a September 2022 episode, Hailie spoke about her unique childhood. When asked if she’s bothered by questions about her dad, the podcaster said, “The best way to say this is yes and no … Honestly, it’s to a point,” she said. “I obviously expect it. And there’s certain things I can understand why people are just genuinely curious about, as anyone would be when you’ve kind of grown up half in the spotlight.”

In February 2023, Hailie announced that she and her boyfriend of over five years, Evan McClintock, were engaged. The couple eventually wed in May 2024, and Hailie shared photos from the wedding on Instagram.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better, more beautiful weekend celebration,” she wrote. “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 traveled to support us and be a part of this new chapter of our lives as husband & wife.”

During an August 2024 episode of her podcast, Hailie admitted that listening to her dad’s latest album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), makes her emotional. This is especially true when it comes to the songs “Somebody Save Me” and “Temporary.”

“I audibly sobbed, I think, for both songs, but especially ‘Temporary,’” she said. “But I will say, watching the video back and listening to the songs, I feel like my parents did such a good job growing up. Where I didn’t realize how bad things were, but now, as an adult in hindsight, it’s so scary to think about.”

Hailie’s childhood videos made up most of the October 2024 music video for “Temporary.” At the end of the video, Hailie is shown revealing that she’s pregnant with her first child in a sweet moment that she shared with her dad.

Hailie shared the news with Eminem by gifting him a blue football jersey that reads “Grandpa” on the back and showing him a sonogram, causing her dad to tear up.

Alaina Marie Scott

Alaina Marie Scott was born on Feb. 22, 1993, in Michigan to Kim’s sister Dawn Scott. Eminem legally adopted her in the early 2000s as her mother struggled with drug use and eventually died in 2016 from a suspected overdose.

“I have full custody of my niece,” the rapper told Rolling Stone about the now-31-year-old in 2004. “My niece has been a part of my life ever since she was born. Me and Kim pretty much had her, she’d live with us wherever we was at.” In 2020, he said Alaina, whom he often calls Lainey in the lyrics of his songs, is “like a daughter” to him.

Eminem name-drops Alaina in his 2004 hit, “Mockingbird,” rapping, “Lainey, uncle’s crazy ain’t he? / Yeah, but he loves you, girl and you better know it / We’re all we got in this world.”

Alaina attended Oakland University, where she got a bachelor of arts in communication with a double minor in public relations and advertising.

These days, Alaina is a travel blogger who often shares her adventures with followers on Instagram. In December 2021, she got engaged to her longtime love, Matt Moeller.

“This moment. this life. Yes a hundred times over. I LOVE YOU,” she captioned a set of photos from the couple’s rooftop proposal, which included a snap that showed off her beautiful emerald-cut diamond ring.

On June 9, 2023, Alaina married Moeller in an outdoor ceremony in Detroit, Michigan. Many friends and family members were in attendance, including Hailie, who served as a bridesmaid; and Eminem, who walked Alaina down an 80-foot-long aisle lined with 2,000 white roses.

“He wasn’t going to miss that,” she told PEOPLE. “These are once-in-a-lifetime moments, and I’m just so grateful to be loved the way I am by everyone. None of this would have been possible without my dad. I’m beyond blessed.”

Alaina shared photos on Instagram from her special day, including a silly snap of the happy couple showing off their rings and another picture of the bridal party posing together.

But the wedding celebrations don’t end there: Alaina has shown support for Hailie, who is also preparing to tie the knot.

After her sister’s February 2023 engagement, Alaina posted a sweet tribute on Instagram, writing in the caption, “my sis is finally engaged🥲 there’s not many moments in life that leave you feeling pure bliss, but this has to be one of them.”

Alaina also shouted out her sister’s accomplishments, adding, “She’s crushing her career right now, crushing being one of my Maid of Honors, crushing her podcast, and everything else that she touches. I have no doubt you’ll crush being a wife, too. You deserve this and more Hay. Being able to plan my own wedding and now experience this with you takes the cake.”

Stevie Laine Scott

Stevie Laine Scott was born on April 16, 2002, to Kim and her then-boyfriend, Eric Hartter, whom she dated between her two marriages to Eminem. When Kim and Eminem got back together, the 8 Mile star legally adopted Stevie in 2005. Their biological father reportedly passed away in 2019.

The 22-year-old came out as nonbinary in August 2021, when they shared a touching video on TikTok documenting their journey through “becoming more comfortable with” themselves. They hashtagged “#genderfluid” and “#bi,” and revealed they now use “all pronouns” to describe themselves.

They immediately received a huge flow of support from fans and shared a post thanking them for all of the love.

Stevie is in a long-distance relationship with TikToker Declan Jace, and often posts cute videos when they’re together.
