Hailie Jade, daughter of American rap icon Eminem, has welcomed her first child, marking a new chapter in her life and sparking widespread congratulations from fans across the world.
The 28-year-old influencer and podcast host announced the news on social media on Monday, April 1, 2024. In a heartfelt post, Hailie revealed that she and her fiancé, Evan McClintock, are now proud parents to a baby girl.
She shared a photo showing the newborn’s tiny hand wrapped around her finger, accompanied by a caption expressing the overwhelming joy and gratitude she felt. Hailie described the experience as “the most life-changing and beautiful moment.”
The birth of Eminem’s grandchild comes just months after Hailie and Evan announced their engagement in February 2023, after several years of dating. The couple has largely kept their relationship private, though they have occasionally shared glimpses of their lives on social media and during podcast appearances.
Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, has not yet publicly commented on becoming a grandfather, but fans have flooded online platforms with celebratory messages and humorous references to the rapper now stepping into a “grandpa” role.
Hailie Jade, who rose to public attention through her father’s music in the early 2000s, has since built her own identity as a social media personality and host of the Just a Little Shady podcast. Despite growing up in the spotlight, she has maintained a relatively low profile and is known for keeping her personal life private.
The arrival of her daughter has drawn attention from both fans of the rapper and celebrity news outlets, many of whom have praised Hailie for the grace and independence with which she has navigated fame.
Well-wishers have also commended Eminem for how he raised his daughter amid his high-profile career, often referencing the deep bond the rapper has shown through his music. Songs like “Mockingbird” and “Hailie’s Song” captured the rapper’s devotion to his daughter and have now taken on a new layer of meaning as he enters grandfatherhood.
As of now, the couple has not shared the baby’s name or any further details. Friends and fans continue to send congratulations to the family as they celebrate the newest addition.
