Eminem Shares Touching Behind-the-Scenes Look at Daughter Hailie Jade's Wedding

Eminem has never been afraid to show love for his family.

And that includes giving insight into his daughter Hailie Jade’s special day. In addition to clips of her as a child, the music video for his new song "Temporary," which was written as a tribute to the 28-year-old and includes a behind-the-scenes look at her wedding to Evan McClintock this past May.

The video, released Oct. 3, shows Eminem accompanying Hailie at the event and hugging her at the altar, as well as the rapper hugging his daughter, nicknamed "Bean," inside a room after getting a glimpse of her in her wedding dress. She presents her dad with a gift and a card, and the inside of a different one, a Father's Day card, is shown at the end of the clip.

"Dad, I got this card a few years ago & held onto it & now feels like the perfect time to give you it," it reads. "Thank you for everything you do & always being there for all of us girls. You truly are the best dad in the world. Love you forever + 100 million dollars forever & always. [Love] Bean."

In "Temporary," Eminem raps a heartfelt message about love and loss for his daughter—one of the 51-year-old and ex-wife Kim Scott's three children—while depicting a reality following his future death.

"Yeah, and you will get over me and move on," the lyrics go. "You can play me on repeat on a song /  But don't you dare shed a tear, what'd I tell you? / 'Straighten up, little soldier," them times when I held you / Jade, it'll be okay, baby, I'm here, hey / I'm watching you right now, baby girl, I vow / I will protect you, your guardian angel."

In the video, there is also a glimpse of new life: Hailie Jade reveals she is pregnant as she is seen presenting Eminem with a jersey bearing the words "#1 Grandpa" and a sonogram of her baby.

The soon-to-be mom has spoken before about her feelings about her dad's new single, nothing that both that song and Somebody Save Me"—which depicts an alternate reality in which the rapper, a longtime recovering addict, never got sober and missed family milestones—made her audibly sob.

"Watching the video back and listening to the songs, I feel like my parents did such a good job," she said on the Aug. 23 episode of her Just a Little Shady podcast. "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.

She continued, "I think that's why I get emotional so much, just thinking that that could have happened."

Read on for a look at Eminem's family tree...

Born Kimberly Ann Scott, the Michigan native was Eminem's high school sweetheart. She welcomed their daughter Hailie Jade in 1995.

Kim was married to the rapper from 1999 to 2001, and briefly again in 2006. Their tumultuous relationship has been referenced in several of Eminem's songs, including "'97 Bonnie & Clyde," "Puke" and "Bad Husband."

"In our relationship, there's a pattern," Kim said of their on-and-off romance in a 2007 interview with 20/20. " We'll have two good years and then it will go bad for some reason. It's like a two-year max with us and we hadn't reached the two years yet. I just didn't want to rush into anything before the two years."

However, Kim noted that Eminem has always been an "excellent" father.

"He loves the kids very much," she shared. "He's always lending a helping hand."

Eminem and Kim welcomed Hailie on Dec. 25, 1995. According to music star, her birth was a "real wake-up call" to "get my a-- in gear."

"Everything that I am doing right now is for Hailie," he told Q magazine in 2001. "The money—it's for her college."

She spent most of her youth under Eminem's 15,000-square-foot roof in the Detroit suburbs, before attending Michigan State University to study psychology. There, she started fellow Spartan Evan McClintock, who she got engaged to in February 2023.

"She's doing good," Eminem said of Hailie during a 2020 episode of Hotboxin' With Mike Tyson, adding that the influencer—who now goes by Hailie Jade—graduated from college with a 3.9 GPA. "She's made me proud for sure."

Born on Feb. 22, 1993, Alaina is the daughter of Kim's sister Dawn Scott. 

She was adopted by Eminem in the early aughts due to her mother's struggles with addiction. "I have full custody of my niece and joint custody of Hailie," the 8 Mile star told Rolling Stone in 2004. "I was always there for Hailie, and 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."

Having been largely raised by Eminem, the Oakland University alum calls him "dad" and had him accompany her down the aisle when she wed Matt Moeller in June 2023.

"He wasn't going to miss that," she told People after the nuptials, during which Hailie served as a Maid of Honor. "None of this would have been possible without my dad. I'm beyond blessed."

Her mother passed away in 2016 at the age of 41.

Kim welcomed Stevie on April 16, 2002, with her then-boyfriend Eric Hartter. Eminem legally adopted Stevie in 2005, when he reconciled with Kim.

Stevie came out as nonbinary in August 2021, sharing in a TikTok video that they identify using "all pronouns."

They added in the caption, "forever growing and changing."

Born in 1955 at a military base in Kansas, Debbie is the mother of Eminem.

She married the "Without Me" artist's father Marshall Bruce Mathers Jr. when she was 15, according to her 2008 memoir My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem. She began pregnant with Eminem 16 months later and relocated to Michigan, where her maternal grandmother lived.

Debbie and Eminem's strained relationship has been documented in several of his songs, including his 2002 smash hit "Cleanin' Out My Closet." In the track, he alleged that Debbie abused prescription pills when he was young—which she denied in her autobiography. 

"What mother wants to be known as a pill-popping alcoholic who lives on welfare?" she wrote. "None of it was true, but the fibs kept getting bigger, and ultimately Marshall and I became estranged."

However, Eminem has since expressed regret in airing out his family drama. In his 2013 song "Headlights," he rapped, "I went in headfirst, never thinking about who, what I said hurt / In what verse, my mom probably got it the worst."
