Yahoo Lifestyle Eminem Is a First-Time Grandpa
Congratulations are in order for Eminem!
The 52-year-old rapper's daughter, Hailie Jade, shared the news of her first baby's birth in an Instagram post on Friday, April 4, posting two sweet pics of the newborn in front of a letterboard revealing the little one's name: "Elliot Marshall McClintock." The infant was dressed in a sweet button-down sweater with a hood that was just a little bit too big for him.
"happy due date//3 weeks earthside little e 🤍," Hailie captioned her post.
Commenters were quick to send the new mom (and grandpa) their best wishes, with several pointing out the meaning behind the baby boy's name (Eminem's real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III.)
"The best day of the entire year! 💙 congratulations! 🎉" one person gushed.
"His middle name im crying 🥹❤️ he’s so precious," added a second fan, with someone else noting that the baby "looks JUST like his granddaddy 😍😍🤍🤍🤍."
"His initials are EM & M 🩵 Genius! What a little cutie," another Instagram user declared.
Hailie welcomed baby Elliot with her husband, Evan McClintock. Dad Eminem shared the couple's pregnancy news in his "Temporary" music video in October, which included footage from the moment he found out he was going to become a grandfather.
In the sweet clip, Hailie gifted her father with a Detroit Lions jersey with “Grandpa” written across the back.
