Eminem adopted his daughter, Alaina Marie Mathers in 2002. She was born, Amanda Marie Scott on May 3, 1993 and is currently 24-years-old. She changed her name in 2002 after Em adopted her. Sadly, Alaina’s mother, Dawn Scott passed away in 2016. Scroll down for more information about Dawn.
Hailie Jade Scott Mathers, Eminem’s Daughter
Hailie Jade Scott Mathers Eminem Daughter
Eminem’s daughter, Hailie Jade Scott Mathers was born on December 25, 1995 in Detroit, Michigan and is currently 22-years-old. Hailie’s Instagram name is @HailieScott1. She doesn’t post many pics and I’m guessing it’s because of privacy issues. She attended Chippewa Valley High School in Clinton Township, Macomb County, Michigan. Hailie played volleyball and graduated Summa Cum Laude.
Hailie currently attends Michigan State University. It’s difficult to believe that she’s already 22. Eminem has mentioned Hailie in numerous songs and we’ve witnessed her transform from his baby girl to a grown woman. I feel sorry for any guy who tries to date Hailie. Em’s lyrics have me convinced that he’s crazy and he would do anything to protect his baby girl.
Eminem’s father wasn’t in his life so he takes fatherhood very seriously. In the past, the rapper has called out his ex-wife, Kim, for refusing to let him see Hailie. Em has been insulted for his disrespect for women but he has raised a smart, beautiful woman.
Whitney Scott Mathers, Eminem’s Daughter

Whitney Scott Mathers, Eminem’s daughter, was born on April 16, 2002 and is currently 15-years-old. Eminem has full custody of her but she’s not his biological daughter. Whitney’s father, Eric Hartt wasn’t in her life. Scroll down to read more about Hartt. Kim and Em divorced in 2001 and a year later, Kim gave birth to Whitney.
Kimberly Anne Scott, Eminem’s Ex-Wife

Eminem’s ex-wife, Kimberly Anne Scott was born in Warren, Michigan on January 9, 1975 and is currently 43-years-old. Her and Em had a crazy relationship which the rapper discusses in his 2000 track “Kim.” They met at a party in 1988. Kim was 13 and Em was 15. At the party, Em stood on a table and delivered LL Cool J’s classic “I’m Bad.”
Eminem and Kim dated for more than 10 years and got married in 1999. Two years later they got a divorce but they eventually made up and got married again in 2006. The couple’s second marriage only lasted 3 months. They divorced in 2006 and never got back together.
Dawn Scott, Kim’s Twin Sister

Dawn Scott is Kim’s twin sister. Sadly, Dawn passed away on January 19, 2016, 10 days after her 41st birthday. She died of a suspected heroin overdose. Dawn’s body was discovered in a trailer park in Detroit. Dawn and Em were close when they were younger. Two years after Kim met Em, her and Dawn ran away from home and moved in with the rapper.
Eric Hartter, Whitney’s Biological Father

Eric Hartter is Whitney’s biological father but Kim didn’t put his name on Whitney’s birth certificate. He was born on January 22, 1979 and is currently 39-years-old. Eric is a tattoo artist with a troubled past. He has been in and out of jail for multiple felonies. In 2013, he was arrested in Wayne County, Michigan for felony firearm possession.
Deborah R. Nelson-Mathers, Eminem’s Mother
Deborah R. Nelson-Mathers Eminem Mother
Eminem’s mother, Deborah Rae “Debbie” Nelson was born on January 6, 1955 and is currently 63-years-old. Like Hailie and Kim, Debbie is a Capricorn. That’s right, three of the most important women in Em’s life are Capricorns. Eminem was born Marshall Bruce Mathers III on October 17, 1972 making him a Libra.
Capricorns are disciplined and responsible yet they can also be arrogant and unforgiving. Libras and Capricorns typically don’t get along explaining why Em’s relationship with Kim didn’t work out. The rapper doesn’t get along with his mother. Libras are social and tactful, two characteristics Em uses to dominate the rap game.
Libras are known to carry grudges, another characteristic Em has used throughout his career. Em has been holding a grudge against his mother for years and Debbie isn’t close to her grandchildren. After breaking up with Em’s father, Debbie gave birth to Em’s half-brother, Nathan Kane Samara.
Marshall Bruce Mathers Jr., Eminem’s Father

Eminem’s father, Marshall Bruce Mathers, Jr. was born on June 30, 1951 and is currently 66-years-old. Him and Debbie were in a band called Daddy Warbucks. They played at hotels in Dakota and Montana but eventually broke up. Marshall had two other children after breaking up with Debbie, a son named Michael and a daughter named Sarah.
